Hey there! I'm Alex, and I've been doing caricatures for almost 20 years now at all kinds of events like weddings, proms, and parties! I'm fast, accurate, and friendly, and want to help make your next event memorable!
I'm quick to setup and quick to draw. For most busy events, I do black and white, and can get through about 16-20 people an hour, averaging out to about 3-4 minutes per face, but can also do color on request. I can even fit up to 5 people on a page! I've had a lot of positive reactions to my work, and my clients have often become regulars.
So, if you're interested in learning more about my work, please contact me today, because I can't wait to be a part of your next event!

September 16, 2025What a great addition to the party. It was my grandson’s 2nd bday party and what great party favors everyone went home with. Alex arrived in plenty of time to set up. He worked the entire time and even stayed on longer to do a couple of additional pictures. We had a lot of laughs seeing how guest came to life with his pen. Will definitely keep him in mind for future events. Everyone was happy with his creations.

September 3, 2025We had such a wonderful experience with Alex! He arrived right on time and came fully prepared with everything he needed. Throughout the evening, he had the loveliest conversations with us while drawing — he even managed to charm and capture an 18-month-old, his toughest client of the night!
Alex brought so much warmth and personality to our gathering, and his talent made the event truly special. The caricatures were fun, thoughtful, and such a unique keepsake for everyone. We couldn’t be happier and would absolutely recommend him for any family celebration or event.

April 21, 2025Alexander was a HUGE hit at our wedding. There wasn’t a single guest that left disappointed. He is incredibly talented and very personable. I’d highly recommend him for any event.

I have a quick, simple setup. I bring my french easel and set up a sign on top of it that details my info and the time I'm drawing until. I arrive about 20 minutes before I am to start drawing to set up, and then start right when I'm scheduled and don't stop until I'm done. Once I get going, I almost always stay busy!
I can draw about 15-19 people an hour, depending on hair, beards, or clothes. That averages out to about 3-4 minutes per face! My drawings are then placed in flat, plastic bags for protection. I don't require any supervision while I work, and can work in any kind of environment, quiet, loud, outside, inside, or even in the dark, as I have some lights I bring with me just in case!
I started doing caricatures back in 2005 at Cedar Point, OH while I was going to art school. After I graduated, I moved down to Tampa and worked at Busch Gardens. After hitting a few other amusement parks I eventually found my way back to Pennsylvania and settled in Bethlehem to work at Dorney.
I finally left the amusement park business to get a graphic design job in 2010. Worked at a local brewery for a few years before getting a job at Crayola. Now I just do caricatures on the side, and am busy most weekends! It's a fun side job, and allows me to be creative and talk to people, two things I love!
All I need is three chairs, and a cozy corner where I'm not in a way, I supply everything else! Very simple!

I have worked with so many different talented artists at different parks around the country, and all have helped to influence my style both on the paper and with customers. I trained new artists, and attended the International Society of Caricature artists convention several times, where I have won various awards, such as "2nd place best retail/party style" and "3rd place, world's fastest artist," and "1st place, best body situation." I have also given a few seminars/guest speeches regarding my work.
