One of my brides from last year is also the events person for a special animal-loving non-profit in Maryland. She thought my mini-caricatures would be a good fit for her guests at their annual fundraiser--and they were! I was booked from 6-10 pm and I had a line from beginning to end, which makes it easy to gauge my drawing speed...
Here's the collage I sent my client: it shows I drew 59 faces, in 32 drawings, done in four hours.
Hmmmm, so 4 x 60= 240 minutes. 240/59 = 4.067. So, approximately 4 minutes per face...60 minutes divided by 4= 15. I drew15 (shaded) faces per hour! I usually advertise that I can do 12-14 shaded B/W faces per hour, so I exceeded it a bit. That's what having a constant influx of couples will do.
Next: The venue was AMAZING! The party was held in the Roundhouse at the B & O Railroad Museum, we were surrounded by old steam locomotives... I was seated by the 305, which saw service dring the American Civil War.
