A Holiday party--perfect time for a company GROUP CARICATURE!

 This was an enjoyable challenge! 25 people in one composition, that I drew organically...meaning I started with the two owners, bottom center, and just kind of drew others in randomly. It's done with Copic Sketchmarkers on a 24" x 36" YES!All-media canvas, which I had never tried before--but it suited my purposes perfectly. I was situated in a lobby area just outside of the ballroom... so I worked from photos, that I took of the employees. Once I finished the large group caricature (which took about two hours and fifteen minutes), I drew individuals and couples for the rest of the party!

Lovely area just outside the ballroom, for me to work from. Usually I ask to be IN the main room with the guests, but this suited my purposes better  and was also good for social distancing as people were more spread out!

And some of the later individual ones:

Finally, this jolly fellow was wandering around! Ho ho ho!

South Bowl corporate holiday party caricatures~

This is such a great venue...a swanky bowling alley with a bar, a DJ, and my caricatures! This company enjoyed the heck out of their holiday party!

Actually, it wasn't just my caricatures; my friend Julie drew with me that night, too. We both had a good view of Home Alone II, which was playing on the bar's big screens.....mmmmm, Tim Curry!!! Here's my set-up (at which I last sat, in December of 2019! Felt good to be back!)

Here's a few scenes from my seat:

Before it got busy, a few folks asked for their pets to be added, so we obliged!

Here's my view of Julie working away, with another Tim Curry sighting!!!!!!

LOL Thanks for having us, South Bowl!

Annual holiday party caricatures...

I do this party every year, so these two faces especially are old friends to me now!!

Others I am watching grow up!

In the background at this event, I always hear the magic show of Mystique the Magician, but I've never SEEN it ;-) he's over there somewhere....

A few more...

See you next December, folks!

Ski-themed holiday party Caricatures!!!

This home became a ski-lodge for the evening! I was set up at the dining room table.

Everybody wore appropriate dress!!!

...and this was very cool, the host and hostess asked everyone to bring household supplies to donate to charity. They got a haul!

Here are some of the caricatures...not all of them (some folks had left by the time I was done)

Happy Holidays! Let it SNOW!! (not..:)

Annual children's Christmas party caricatures...one of my fave gigs every year

Santa and his elves came in, and made a whole group of families happy...

and so did I with my caricatures...all of kids!

I draw many of these kids every year...and these two, below, are definitely some of my regulars. I've even used their caricatures (with permission) to advertise 'how I draw kids' to prospective clients. Wow!They are really growing up!!

Thanks to Stephen, who books me every year for this event!

Corporate holiday party in a historic former church....

Here's another type of place where I've never drawn caricatures...a church stage, in front of a massive pipe organ!

Here's the further-away view:

My caricaturist colleagues onstage were Rick and Mike:

It was a lady-filled event:

Thanks for having me!

Another warm-hearted staff holiday party with caricatures!

 Back for a 2nd stint at their holiday festivity, my caricatures put smiles on the faces of the staff (and their families) of a local medical practice... 

I was situated  in the dining room, along with a fantastic photo-booth that looked like a mirror...and the host had a schedule posted to keep things organized  (with almost 100 people in his home, you'd be organized too!)

Thanks for having me, Dr. H!!!!

Company holiday party caricatures in popular brewpub!

 This caricature reaction really made me happy!

I drew her at a small company holiday party held in a cool 

brewery/pub kind of place: Braeloch Brewpub in Kennett Square, PA. When I walked in, my attention was riveted on a HUGE Santa portrait they had hanging up! I just LOVE faces!

The holiday decor was up even though it was still early December.

The building was a beautifully refurbished 1903 brick warehouse. 

The vibe was very pleasant and I think they enjoyed being caricatured!!

THANK YOU! My client left me a great review on Gigsalad, which is how she booked me:

Great Caricaturist!

We used Emily for a corporate event and she wowed the crowd. She has a real talent for this and is very energetic and fun. Would definitely use her again.
