Daniel Zmuda, the Caricaturist, was absolutely excellent and I would have no hesitation in recommending him again or use him. He went above and beyond to provide a service.

We had such an amazing experience having Francesco at our wedding! His drawings were amazing and he was very friendly and our guests loved having their pictures done. Thank you Francesco!!! I can't wait to frame the caricature and keep it on my wall as a keepsake forever.

Booked for Wedding

We hired Andy to do caricatures at our wedding and our guest loved the unique entertainment! Andy was very professional from booking to on the day at the wedding, had great communication and is very talented.

Booked for Other Event

we were unaware that the Cartoonist needed chairs and were not prepared, so had to chase some down. It would have been an idea to bring some himself, and there was no sign advertising his service, which would have been useful. Having said this, he did a good job and kept people entertained with his drawings, staying beyond his time to ensure that those queuing had a chance to have a drawing.

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.

All live artists are NOT the same. Good ones are rare! I am renowned as one of the UK's most sought-after live event caricaturists, with the skills and experience to back this up. I have a confident, clean style and, most importantly of all, an ability to capture stunningly hilarious likenesses. Combine this with a naturally friendly and approachable manner, and you have a truly unique entertainment choice that will keep your guests talking and the 'buzz' going long after the day has ended!

About supplier

Many caricaturists boast of entertaining guests "with cheeky charm and witty banter". Me? I passionately believe that the art should do the talking. So while you can be sure I'm a friendly conversational guy, my #1 goal is to provide funny, undeniably pitch-perfect likenesses. Every single time.
