I cannot praise Tony enough for his contributions to Project Access and Hickory Chase! Tony is personable, professional, and extremely talented. Everyone who leaves his chair leaves with a smile and he picks up on small details that you wouldn't expect! If you are looking for an artist for any event, you don't need to look any further. Tony is the best around! Thank you for everything Tony.

Guests really enjoyed having a caricature artist

Tony arrived promptly and began sketching. Our guests really enjoyed having him at the party .
Something different and something to take home with them ! The only negative was I was waiting to let all of the other guests have their caricature drawn before I sat down and he left ( when his time was up) .I wasn’t aware that it was time . Just would have liked to have known that he was leaving . AND sad that I didn’t get a drawing . 😞

Response from Tony's Caricatures:

Amy! Thank you again for having me draw at your event--great crowd! I am also sad I didn't get to draw your caricature, I actually ended up staying an extra 30 minutes past your official booking time to try to accommodate as many people as possible! Not my standard practice, but I wanted to make sure and go the extra mile for you and the extra special birthday boy. Catch me next time before I pack up!

Tony's Caricatures was a highlight of our party and he did not stop drawing from the moment he set up! His drawings resembled each person so uniquely and he was personal with those who attended. He's a busy guy and we were lucky to have him! Project Access looks forward to working with Tony's Caricatures for future events :)

We had our caricature done at the Ohio State Fair and love it! Tony knows how to capture personalities in a short amount of time.

Price Range: $150-250

Gig Length: 120 - 500 minutes

Languages: English

Insurance: $1,000,000 - General Liability

What to Expect

I offer unique entertainment and a personalized party favor in one. I average between 20-25 faces per hour in black-and-white, or 6-7 faces per hour in color. In addition, each guest receives a cylindrical bag to store & protect their sketch. Don't forget that it's a spectator sport, so while I'm drawing each guest a crowd forms behind me to watch the process and cheer and jeer the participants! I bring all my own equipment, I just ask clients to have at least two (2) chairs for me to use, but I can bring my own upon request. I look forward to making your party that much more memorable!

About

With the attraction of my interactive art form, I love increasing the 'fun factor' at live events. Since 2000 I've drawn caricatures at over 300 events and given over 25,000 people the chance to laugh at a cartoony image of their face. I average about 20 faces per hour in black and white, but my record is 37 faces per hour. Your guests won't be sitting long but they'll remember your party forever!

Additional Booking Notes

I only ask two things from you:

1. CHAIRS
As mentioned previously, all I need are at least two (2) chairs, one for me and one for my subject(s). If you don't have chairs let me know and I can bring some.

2. LIGHTING
Please be sure the lighting for your event is adequate for the caricature area. However if you believe lighting to be a concern let me know and I can bring my own battery-powered lights.
