We had the pleasure of having John for our wedding, and he was absolutely amazing! He looked stylish and fit in perfectly with the atmosphere of the day and was real hit with our guests. Everyone loved their drawings, we had so many compliments about how well he captured each person’s unique features and personality and the pictures really did resemble them. There was always someone at his table, and he worked so quickly and efficiently without compromising on quality. Such a fun and memorable addition to our wedding entertainment. He is 10 out of 10 I highly recommend.

Jonatan failed to attend the booking for my 20th wedding anniversary due to him having a tummy bug. I understand illnesses are unavoidable however, I am very disappointed about the communication as he cancelled at 13:00 when we were expecting him for 15:00-17:00. We only get one 20th wedding anniversary and this definitely threw things off as we were relying on his entertainment. He offered to make it up to me by offering 30 colour caricatures by order, which he can complete and post directly to my address once finished, or to arrange another date when he's available to sketch for me and my guests in person. However I did not feel confident in booking him again after this. Aalia

Jonatan (John Valcas Art) is a really great character artist. I booked him for 3 hours as part of the entertainment for my birthday celebrations. I checked out his show case and decided from the reviews that he would be ideal for my event. It was based in London and I thought it would be a problem for him to travel to me but he said it was not an issue as he was used to travelling to various different areas. We had a Zoom call so that I could meet him before the event and decide on timing. On the day, he set up quickly, ready to start immediately. I found him a private spot outside on the terrace so that guests could sit out in comfort away from the dancing and have their portraits done. However, he is also used to drawing people on the go with dancing or other things going on, or sitting at their tables if no dedicated space is available. It was really popular with everyone. He managed to fit everybody in. We had so much fun with all of us showing friends and family the results. He went the extra mile and stayed on a bit later for me to have my own special picture done in colour. I would really recommend him to bring the fun element into any event.

thank you so much for your beautiful review! 😊 It was a real pleasure to be part of your birthday celebration – such a fantastic atmosphere and lovely group of people! I’m really glad the caricature spot on the terrace worked out so well, and that your guests enjoyed the experience. I always aim to make everyone feel relaxed and entertained while creating something they can take home and remember. Travelling to London was no trouble at all – it’s always worth the journey when the event is filled with such great energy and appreciation. I’m especially happy you liked your special colour portrait at the end – it was a joy to do! Thanks again for trusting me with your celebration and for taking the time to write such kind words. Wishing you many more memorable moments ahead!

Jonathan was fabulous! He entertained the guests with his drawings. We added the colour option, and that was a good idea, as it changed the overall result and enhanced the exaggerated features. I suggest an extended session if your guest wants to be drawn. The time goes by so quickly, there is only so much time... Jonathan is very amicable and had a good chat while drawing, my party was a success!
