A self taught and yet natural draughtsman, Preston's humorous cartoons are drawn from the burlesques of everyday life. Recent exhibitions include a 'one man show' at The Fine Art Society in 1999. Oliver Preston now primarily draws private caricatures, but also undertakes corporate and publication commissions from his studio outside Tetbury in Gloucestershire whilst also fulfilling his role as chairman of The Cartoon Art Trust, London.
