Carol arrived on time. Very happy to have her for my parents surprise party. Would definitely use her again!
Caricaturist
Carol was amazing. She was very professional and her artwork was fantastic. So much so that people littered social media with pictures of her work, and the comments section on each post lauded its accuracy in depiction. The drawings worked fantastic as party favors and keepsakes for our little one's birthday. Thanks again Carol, look forward to working with you again. Highly recommended.

Caricaturist
Carol worked independently (which was exactly what I needed as I hosted this large party) and produced amazing sketches for my guests. Everyone couldn't wait to sit and see what they looked like through her eyes. It was a give-away all will cherish! So happy we found Carol and she was able to make my event even better!!!

Carol was extremely good at her craft. She was very professional and easy going. Definitely worth it.

Response from Caricatures by Carol:
Thank you, Joanne! I had an awesome time! - Carol
Carol was very easy work with, professional, and incredibly talented! I hired Carol to draw caricatures of my co-workers at a goodbye party of about 40 people. And she created 40 beautiful portraits! Everyone left happy and excited to take their caricatures home!
Carol would be an excellent artist to have at any event and will definitely amaze everyone with her skill of being able to capture a person's most flattering features in 5 minutes or less! I highly recommend Carol to all of my family and friends!
Caricaturist
Carol was 10minutes early and got right down to work. The designs were great. Some kids had requested simple designs and other very elaborate ones. All the kids were happy and proud of their faces and arms. At the end of the day, the paint washed off very easily with no residue.
Face Painter
Carol was awesome!! Everyone loved her work. She drew caricatures for my daughters 10th birthday party and they were amazing! Looked just like each and every kid. I would definitely use her again!!
Caricaturist
We booked Carol for our son's baptism and couldn't have been happier with her! Everyone thought the caricatures were such a cool idea, and she did a great job on them. It was a great little "thank you" for our guests. I will definitely use her for future parties.
Caricaturist

Caricaturist, Face Painter
All of the children and adults were very happy with their face and arm paint and caricature pictures. She did an amazing job, quick, professional, and very artistic. I would highly recommend FacePaintinIsFun and I look forward to booking with her on future events.
Caricaturist, Face Painter
I hired Carol for my husbands 60th birthday celebration for face painting and caricatures. She was a huge hit! Face painting was intricate and professional. Done the first half of the party and mostly for the kids. Many adults participated for the caricatures during the second half of the party. Carol was so popular, there was a line! Had a quick renegotiation with her and she graciously stayed longer than our agreed upon time. Very pleased.
Caricaturist, Face Painter
Excellent kids face painter
I'm so glad we found FacePaintingIsFun and will definitely use Carol again
Worth every penny
All the parents gushed, it made me look good so you can't get better than that
Thank you to Carol, we really appreciate your service

Booking Info
Price Range: $100 - 150 per hour (depending on services/travel)
Gig Length: 90 - 400 minutes
What to Expect
Black & White Caricatures:
Most caricatures take between 3 to 5 minutes each and are done with black and white/grayscale markers on 11" x 17" paper and then placed into plastic bag covers (see sample photos). Your guests get to take home a cartoon souvenir! Please provide a space for me to work in, with a standard-sized table and 4 chairs. I will bring everything else that I need! A quiet, well-lit corner of the party room is best. For an outdoor party, some shade/covering is needed, in case of rain/wind.
Face Painting:
Butterflies, Pirates, Witches, Fairies, Tigers, Dragons, Goblins and Princesses will float throughout your party with the magic of face painting! When I arrive I show everyone face painting design printouts that they can choose from, then start setting up my paints/brushes (approx a 10 minute set up). I have designs for girls and boys, Disney's "Frozen," Spiderman, Batman, Superman, The Hulk, Fairies, Princesses, Pirates, Peppa Pig, Puppy Faces, Nyan Cat, Sonic the Hedgehog, Rainbow Butterflies, Angels, Space Alien, Cupcakes, Angry Birds, Penguins, Mermaids, Bunny Rabbits, Octopus, Tigers, Floral Designs, Mickey and Minnie Mouse, M&Ms, Seahorses, Cars, Owls, Hearts, Elmo and Cookie Monster, Snakes, Sharks, Dragons and more!) If time allows, I also do arm tattoos or face painting for any of the adults that want to try it! I use only hypoallergenic face paint especially formulated for use on children. Clean up is easy with a little soap and water.
About
Carol is absolutely fantastic! All the guests felt very comfortable with her and the work is amazing. People call me before the party to say how pleased they are with the "pics" with all family. I recommend her with no restrictions and for sure I will keep her phone number for the next party! :) (Flavia, hired her for a wedding.)

I could not recommend Carol more highly-- her caricatures were literally the absolute HIGHLIGHT of our daughter's birthday party. In addition Carol herself was more than a pleasure to work with from the initial booking all the way until the end of the party. She even stayed late to draw an image of me post-party! Everyone loved how the caricatures were so accurate! One couple wants to use theirs as a save the date for their weddding. Really can't say enough, so grateful to have had her and would definitely love to book her again. Thank you so much Carol for making our day so INCREDIBLY SPECIAL!

Carol was early to our event to prepare. She was so pleasant to work with and produced great caricatures. Everyone loved theirs. She was so great at working with the children who couldn't sit still for a sketching, she just took a pic of the kids and came back with an awesome caricature. Great job! Would definitely recommend her and hire her again for another event! Jen

wedding reception
__________________________________________
Carol provided caricatures for my wedding reception two weeks ago. She was on time and set up before the reception started. My husband and I didn't have time to sit with her so Carol took a photo of us together and created a caricature for us from the photo. One of our guests wanted a caricature of her children who were not at the wedding so Carol created one from a photo. She was busy throughout the entire reception and our guests thoroughly enjoyed her work. I highly recommend Carol.
