WOW.. Steve was absolutely fantastic and such a professional !! We book Steve to do his silhouettes at our champagne reception and then throughout our meal. He was so friendly and kind and interacted with everyone, what Steve does is unique and a conversation starter for everyone. Everyone has mentioned how amazing what he does is. Additionally our guest got to go home with a memento of the night. Steve was so accommodating and couldn't have done more for us, He is a fantastic man and we really couldn't recommend him enough... BOOK BOOK BOOK !! You wont regret it and the value for money is 10/10.

Silu Cartoon is an incredible artist and great host. Everyone loved having their portraits drawn and it brought an element to the party which couldn’t have been created without him. Don’t think twice about Silu, you wont be disappointed!

Sam was a great person to have draw at our wedding. He was very friendly, chatty and very good at capturing us and our guests! Pics came in individual plastic sleeves for safe keeping and were loved by all. Would definitely recommend him.

A really great guy; friendly, chatty and put everyone at ease whilst they awkwardly sat being sketched! He really captured the guests’ features through his caricatures. I would fully recommend Sam :-)
