Phenomenal!

Shelley joined us for a company party and she was such a hit! She was extremely personable, very friendly, and her artwork was phenomenal. She even stayed a little late to grab a couple of stragglers who hadn't had a chance to get their caricatures done yet, which was so nice. If you need a caricaturist for your event, please choose Shelley!

She holds foundational degrees in portrait, landscape, still life, and figure painting and drawing. Currently the assistant art director of Visual Art Institute in SLC and Utah County, Highland Utah.

Additional booking notes

Any Caricature artist needs good lighting, but I do have my own clip on lights if it gets dark and we're outside. Also chairs should be provided about 4, incase a family wants their Caricatures done altogether
