Paul was excellent. Worked quietly in the background. In fact, there were times when I forgot he was there!. He produced wonderful images which everyone loved. My four pictures are now a great keepsake in my hallway for all to see ....... I highly recommend Paul and would certainly hire again.

Live Speed Portrait Artist

5.0(3 reviews)

• 15 bookings

I create portraits with a stunning level of resemblance in a matter of minutes using a variety of materials. I specialise in a style I've created using watercolour, coloured pencil and pen to create stylised portraits but on request can also work in more traditional ways, using chalk pastel to create something with a more classic appearance. This can add a really fun element to parties, events, weddings, birthdays or festivals and is a fantastic memento for guests to remember their experience.

About supplier

My style is incredibly unique within the speed portrait category, not quite rudely humorous caricature or cartoonized portrait, my work is a stylised flattering representation that maintains a real level of likeness to the person being drawn.
