As a caricature artist, it is my job to bring smiles! My caricatures have no age or species limit; I have worked with newborns to 100 years old and even some dogs too! I work on 8x10" archival paper in gray scale markers with options to add color. My services offer memories that will last a lifetime.
Kayleigh came our Family Night in the restaurant & was great interacting with the children & families, making quick work of the portraits. Had many guests get multiple even with different family combinations.
Kayleigh was so great. She was timely, professional & so reasonably priced. She was the prefect addition to our staff party. It brought laughs- not only in the moment, but has been the talk of the party since. My staff not only enjoyed having thier caricature done, but had just as much fun watching others get thiers done. Kayleigh thank you so much for making our gathering so special!
This was the second event I have booked Kayleigh for. She is so great at interacting with guests, comes on time, and has no problem going with the flow of the event. I highly recommend Kayleigh!!

I enjoyed getting to know your guests and the opportunity to work with you!
Excellent customer service! She was friendly, conversational, and made the event pleasant for all.
Great personality, fun artwork, and reliable!
This is the second wedding we have booked with Kayleigh. Her drawings are a great memento of the special day. Not only did she work efficiently but she engaged with each guest in such a warm and friendly way. Choose Kayleigh for your next event…you won’t be sorry!
Kayleigh was great with our guests, charismatic and personable. This was the first time we booked a caricature artist for our annual event and it went over even better than expected, because of that there was a constant line waiting for their turn, and Kayleigh did a fabulous job keeping up while producing adorable pieces. She was also flexible on time and stayed longer than she was booked. Overall, would highly recommend and would book again in the future.
Our guests loved Kayleigh. She was on time, fun, great with all ages, and did a marvelous job. Thanks for being such a great addition to our Halloween party and giving our guests a fun piece to take home with them.

I saw the art. It was great. People were happy. I, the bride was too swamped to meet kayleigh.
Scheduling was a challenge.
Response from Caricatures by Kayleigh:
I agree. This scheduling challenge was on my end and I have learned to check my schedule twice before I commit to the gig. I appreciate your honesty and flexibility with my error. Your family was a joy to work with!

Thank you so much for the great review! The reception was really neat and I enjoyed meeting your guests!
For my daughters wedding we had a two hour long cocktail hour because of the venue needing to flip the room. Kayleigh worked non stop drawing many awesome caricatures for our guests! They were all so excited about them that several had additional copies made to hand out to their friends! Kayleigh was quick, professional and a huge addition to our event!! She was also very affordable!
A big thanks to Kayleigh for helping to make our Carnival cruise themed cocktail hour a success!!!😄

Everyone raved about their pictures and were excited to have multiple drawings with friends and family!! A huge thank you to Kayleigh and GigSalad.

Response from Caricatures by Kayleigh:

Price Range: $100 and up
When I arrive at an event, I set up my supplies and make sure I have adequate seating for my models to sit while I draw them. On average, it takes me 5 minutes to draw one person and about 10 to draw 2-3 people. The caricatures are drawn on a piece of 8x10" paper in grayscale markers with an option to add color. All the supplies I use are archival (museum quality) and are meant to last for generations to come!
Kayleigh is an illustrator specializing in horror, fantasy, and caricatures. She graduated from Kendall College of Art and Design of Ferris State University with her BFA in Illustration. Kayleigh has been illustrating professionally for over 9 years and a professional caricature artist for over 5 years working with clients such as First and Main of Metro Health Village and David Carrier Law.
I only require one small table and three chairs (one for myself and two for my models).
