Live Wedding Caricatures

Overview

Drawing caricatures is my full time job and my goal is to ENTERTAIN your guests! I started drawing caricatures over 25 years ago. I draw at weddings, company picnics, colleges, trade shows, festivals and other family and company events. I graduated from the University of the Arts in Philadelphia. Growing up my father was in the Navy so I lived in the Philippines, California, Hawaii and outside Washington DC.

IT CRAZY BECAUSE AT MY FIRST HANG OUT WITH MY FRIEND AT THE TIME (WHO IS NOW MY WIFE) HE WAS THERE AND I DIDN'T REALIZE WE HIRED THE SAME PERSON FOR OUR WEDDING. WHAT A COINCIDENCE 🥰 !!
THANK YOU SO MUCH.

Absolutely the best

Brian was very friendly and everyone loved getting this extra piece for our event.
They were a little hesitant at first, but once they got started they were sad they missed out on getting one. Definitely recommend Brian! His charicatures were spot on for our employees and when we do our next event, he's already been requested!

Perfect!

Brian was excellent. His work is the best I’ve seen and I’ve hired many character artists over the years for our events. He is extremely professional, flexible, low maintenance, great personality, and very very talented.

About

I draw live quick sketch caricatures at your event. I am paid per hour and the guests do not pay for the drawings.

Hire Brian for Weddings, Birthday Parties, Family Reunions, School Proms, Company Picnics, Trade Shows, Bar/Bat Mitzvahs, Corporate Events, Private Parties, Picnics and Grand Openings. Gift caricatures can be drawn from photographs.

At events I provide all my supplies to draw. I bring the paper, markers, lights if needed and easel I draw from.

On average I draw a black line caricature portrait in 3 minutes. I can place couples together on the same page.

Gift Caricatures: I can create a gift caricature from provided photos. Details about the illustration can be incorporated in the rendering. For commissions I use archival inks and can color the illustration in watercolors. I also can create digital illustrations.

Contact me if you have any questions and would like to hire me for your event.

Additional booking notes

All I need is good lighting to see my subject well.
