Was greeted by Luke, a very polite, well mannered gentleman, very professional and made each client feel comfortable whilst carrying out his extraordinary artistic skills. Had 170 people at our event, many, including myself & my wife, received a Caricature, with nothing but praise, amazement & laughter. I thoroughly recommend Luke to anyone planning to have a Caricature artist at their event.

Alan was a joy to work with. He was reliable, professional and his caricatures were amazing! He truly added a special touch to our event. We couldn’t have asked for a better caricaturist to capture our guests on the day and send them home with a fab memory of our party.

Having Tommy from Cartoon Art Studio at our Youth Camp event in Scotland was one of the highlights of the social activities in the evening. Tommy had a great way of getting the best out of the participants and they were all smiling when they saw their great caricatures that Tommy had drawn. Would definitely use this type of entertainment again in the future at our events. Thank you Scottish Cartoon Art Studio

Chris did a great job. Everyone was queuing to ensure they got a picture. He worked really hard to make sure as many people at my sons christening had their drawing done. Great night.

What a superb person and extremely talented artist. So easy to work with, very flexible and amiable and boy can this guy work miracles with dodgy noses and double chins. Many people left proudly with great moments of a truly wonderful evening. Highly, very highly, recommended.

We delivered next level parties for exceptional companies

We also did more than 40,000 birthday parties. Probably, including your neighbour’s recent big bash.
