About you..

You have a fair, wedding, festival or market you want to make special

You've spent months planning your event - personal or professional - booking entertainment, planning what the vibes should be, going over every detail with so much love and care.

You want something that adds a personal touch to the day

Once the day is over, you want your guests to leave with a little memento, something personal and something they would be proud to display rather than a trinket they’d stuff in the ‘everything’ drawer.

That’s where I come in!

Live portrait drawing captures your guests in real time, and is a gift your guests can take home and enjoy (almost) instantly.

FAQs

Where do I start?

We start by having a chat - I like to grab a coffee or book in a call, get to know you and what you’re looking for, and most importantly get excited about being creative! From there if we decide to go ahead, I will send you an onboarding form with all the necessary details - you will always know where I’m up to in our project!

What material do you usually use for drawing the portraits

I am usually a digital drawing gal, but for Live Portrait Drawing I can draw pen on paper too. Depending on what is needed for the event I bring branded card, markers, watercolours and anything else I think could look great! We would normally chat about this in the early stages to see what you’re thinking for your event.

Who owns the illustrations when they’re done?

Ownership and copyright remains with me, unless it is added to the scope and pricing. Exclusive licensing is included in the standard rates.

I have a few things I could use an Illustrator for, can I combine services, and does this make it cheaper?

Yes, and yes! I love to grab a coffee or get on a call with people so we can ascertain whether we jive together or not. Part of this would be us figuring out exactly what you need, where I can help, how I can make your life easier (and more colourful) - which means we work out a bespoke package that fits your needs (because one size does not fit all), and along with that we would chat about pricing too.
