I DRAW FINE ART SKETCHES OF INDIVIDUALS, COUPLES, AND GROUPS!
I am a studio artist and educator that truly enjoys sitting down with people for a quick ink portrait.
My drawings are much more fine-art sketches than the typical event caricature.
This has made them especially appropriate for groups of friends and family that would prefer a distinctive, framable take-away.
I can adapt my style to anywhere between 3 minutes and 2 hours for a pose, depending on event requirements.
Please contact me with any questions or points of customization.

June 27, 2026We hired Miles to do watercolor portraits for our wedding guests, and they were happily lined up to get their portraits all night. Miles was lovely to talk to, super talented, and all the guests absolutely loved their portraits. His prices are reasonable and his artwork is fantastic. He even drew our orange cat into our portrait, and we love it so much. I highly recommend you hire him. PS: Make sure you take a look at his website and ask him about the butt portraits he did!

I arrive 30 minutes early (or your preference) with an easel and my small box of papers and envelopes. I take up about a 5' x 5' square, when set up.
I can either bring comfortable chairs or use the chairs that you have on site.
I begin with my first sitters. This quickly escalates as guests see what's happening and get in line. Depending on the venue, I will start a list where guests will put their names down so that they don't have to stand around. I can either call out the next guests name or have the current sitter go and tag them to come over.
I place each portrait in a white envelope that they can collect immediately or pick up from me before they leave the party.
Depending on the event, I can either pin portraits up to be enveloped at the end or they can be immediately enveloped and stacked.
At the end of the event I can pack up and leave within 5 minutes.
I'm a Los Angeles-born fine art painter and arts educator who enjoys sitting down with new people, drawing them, and leaving them with the result.
Offering these fine art portrait sketches has been a joy.

Completely adaptable to situation and environment.
I take up very little space and only need sitting places.
