Frequently Asked Questions
How many guests can you draw in an hour?
It depends on the style. Black-and-white faces run about 2-3 minutes each, color faces about 5-8 minutes, and full-color body portraits take about 15 minutes. Tell me your headcount and event length when you request a quote, and I'll help you pick the style that fits.
Why is a caricature artist the right fit for my event?
Often times, people really would like to have a caricature drawn, but they haven’t had the opportunity. It’s always a pleasant surprise for your guests to finally get the chance! It works as entertainment while it's happening (people gather around and watch), and as a keepsake afterward, and it's one of the best icebreakers I've seen between guests who don't know each other yet.
Can I book more than one service for the same event?
Yes, caricatures, henna, and face painting all pair well together, and a lot of hosts book two or three for one event. Mention what you're interested in when you request a quote. See Caricatures →, Henna Tattoos →, and Face Painting →.
How far in advance should I book?
The sooner the better, especially for weekend dates during peak season. Reach out as soon as you have a date and I'll let you know what's available.
Do you publish pricing?
Rates vary by date, style, event length, and headcount, so I quote every event individually rather than publishing a flat price. Tell me the details and I'll send you a free quote.
