New printer in effect

Overview

My style is pretty straightforward, (B&W with dynamic warm and cool grays) that are whimsical and lighthearted. I create, what I call ‘new school’
Caricatures. With just a click I capture a snapshot with an iPod air and hand back a finished product in (+ or -) 15 minutes. Setting the model free to socialize at the event rather than sit and pose. This technique has absolutely revolutionized my ability to handle large quantities of high quality portraits in a short fixed time period. Roughly 4-5 per hour (more if kept very minimal)
I provide a plastic sleeve for all of the drawings and now offer free logos and other personal messages printed onto the paper I use.

Dedicated Artist

Soller's super dedicated to his events and will even do a few before or follow up and finish some after an event. Real quality work - more than just your typical caricature artist.

Made our event shine!

Rob Soller brought our party to life! We hosted a youth social event for DeMolay International and wanted to provide our attendees with something extra special. We put out a call for artists, and Rob submitted a very appealing proposal. Rob showed up early, got set up early, and started working with our attendees.
Rob has an amazing artistic style that captures people's faces, likes, and adds personality that is incredible. Rob's approach of using a picture of the person allows them to enjoy the rest of the party while their masterpiece is being created.
Rob's work ethic is tremendous and I would 100% hire him again for another event.

Booking information

Price range: $60-$120/hr. sliding scale per project

What to expect

People really seem to love getting a portrait without sitting and posing for it.
Currently, I’m utilizing the camera on an iPod air to snap a photo of the models and work with a sign-up sheet.
This practice frees the attendees to enjoy the event more thoroughly.
I’ve been able to complete up to 20 in a 3 1/2hr. Booking. This process is especially great for guests who;
A.) sign up late or have to leave early and need to have their drawing shipped the next day.
B.) would like to text me a picture of a pet, partner, etc. to add to their portrait.
C.) simply want one and don’t care to sit for it.
•All portraits come with a protective sleeve.
•I’m offering free logos or personal messages printed onto the paper.
