Live Party/Event Pet Caricature Artists
Hi I’m Michael, I have over 35 years of experience as a live artist for parties and events. I’m a people person and love making everyone including animals happy. When I’m drawing live at an event I enjoy talking to the models and guest as I work. I strive to discover unique qualities in them that I can use in my drawings. I tend to be more of a quick but fun portrait artist ruling on the side of flattery instead of gross exaggeration. When I’m not drawing caricatures I teach art at the Ringling College of Art in Sarasota Florida, make my own original comics and do freelance illustration. I hope you’ll consider hiring me for your next event when I’ll look forward to drawing you and your animals as cute as you all can be.
