Dave Boatman Caricatures For Parties & Events

I provide well drawn caricatures that depict each guest in a good light. As I draw, I engage the guests in a lively, fun conversation that entertains them and the surrounding crowd. I am always dressed in a professional and appropriate manner. I am always on time and I'm user friendly! I am professional and have a good personality that guests enjoy. I am also asked to stay overtime for additional hours at a lot of my events. I work hard to make the booking agent look good. I also get the agent other jobs by displaying the agent's business cards. I always honor the agent's booking rights and Never bring my business cards to your events.

For the last 20 years, I have drawn caricatures for many of the top Southern California party and event planners. I always arrive early, set up quietly and am always ready to start at the contracted time. I like to start 5 to 10 minutes earlier (on my own time) and draw a few guests as my warm up. I also don't mind staying a few minutes after the contracted stop time. It's good PR. I work hard make your party an event! I am a graduate of the Art Institute of Pittsburgh and work as a professional cartoonist, caricaturist and illustrator. After each event, I provide a detailed event report and send it back to the booking agent as soon as I return home from the gig. I'd loved to work with you.

I bring my own black folding chairs and small TV tray size black drawing table. I only need an electrical outlet for my 60 watt draw light. I always bring a 30 foot extension chord and a multiple outlet plug, just in case. I can and do use tables and chairs provided at the event.
