Traditional Caricatures

Traditional Caricatures In Toronto

Drawing with marker on paper is the traditional form of live event caricature entertainment. With Ben’s 20 years of experience, your guests are sure to cherish their one-of-a-kind illustrations! These fun and unique caricature drawings can be created in 3-4 minutes per person. Very often two and more people are drawn together in one sketch as well. Traditional caricatures are a great entertainment option for any type of event including weddings, company parties, birthdays, mitzvahs, retirements, and much more!

Traditional Caricature Information

Caricatures are created with black marker on 8.5 x 11″ paper – a convenient and standard frame size.

Guests are asked if they have a favourite activity, hobby, sport, or something else they would like to be doing in the drawing. Their face and body is then drawn in 2-3 minutes, approximately 15-20 people per hour.

When there is a large number of people at the event, then I can draw faces only and finish approximately 20 and more people in an hour.

Once the caricature is finished it is placed inside a protective sleeve so your guests won’t have to worry about any damage being made to their drawing.
