Excellent & so fun

We hired Mark to draw caricatures for our wedding reception and our guests absolutely loved it. He was friendly and the drawings were completed so fast. Guests were laughing and truly enjoying their piece of take home art.

Family Christmas Party

We had Marktoons Caricatures at my family's Christmas party last year. I cannot say enough great things about our experience. The pictures were awesome, he was very polite and personable. We would love to have him back at our next holiday get together.

I just need three chairs and a small space to set up. An area with decent lighting is always helpful. Access to an electrical outlet might be needed. No table necessary.
