Ruy, arrived in plenty of time before the party. Additionally, he was very professional and also very personal. Our guests enjoyed conversing with him as he drew their caricatures. His set up required very little; just a table n' chair and he was ready to go! He captured the likeness of each of our guests, though I will add that his caricatures were kind and not hurtful which my husband and I deeply appreciated. In summation, we highly recommend Ruy. In addition to being punctual, professional and personable, he seems to fundamentally be a very kind and gentle person.
Roy is so pleasant and personable. All our guests loved him. Very talented!!! And a pleasure to work with. We would definitely use him again
Ruy did an incredible job drawing up my members! He never stopped working and he always had a smile on his face. He loves what he does and is proud of his work as he should be! I will definitely have him at my next big event!!
Ruy was an excellent artist. Every one of my members that got their caricature was beyond recognizable! He was extremely talented and personable. I highly recommend him for your next event!!
I booked Ruy for my 30th birthday and I swear they were the party's hit! It was a carnival theme and having the caricaturist just brought the whole thing home for us. They were funny, enjoyable to talk too, and just had awesome drawings of us. They were on time and even stayed a bit after to finish up the sketch that was started. Honestly, I'm writing this review just so that it'll be easier to find their profile when I book again. Thanks for helping out and being my first gig salad experience.
Ruy was professional and easy to work with. The students had a ball.
Ruy was hired for my daughters 1st communion party. He was on time, friendly and overall did a great job. My guests loved having their pictures done. Definitely recommend.
We hired Ruy for my dad’s birthday party. He was very professional and overall did a great job. The guests loved his work! I would recommend him to anyone looking for a caricaturist.
We had Ruy draw caricatures for our wedding guests. Everyone loved him and thought it was a great idea. We had several people wait all night, as he was just that busy! He was very flexible with timing, staying later than we initially asked for guests that still wanted caricatures (although he was fast in completing them). And he was able to do ours while we were eating dinner, so we didn’t have to wait to get back to our guests. He also gave the option of sending him a picture from the wedding, completing at a later date. I found him engaging when we sat for the picture. I would absolutely recommend him and hire him again if we ever had a need.
Our guests enjoyed a caricature by Ruy. It was a big hit!
Ruy was great, nice guy.
This was a new experience for everyone. Everyone enjoyed it!
For my daughter's birthday we wanted something different. Instead of the bouncy castles and face painting, we thought the kids would love to take home a caricature drawing of themselves. We are so happy we booked Ruy! He was amazing and the kids had a blast! Ruy is professional, punctual and patient. He even stayed a little over the scheduled time to finish up a couple of kids. I highly recommend him for your next event. The drawings came out wonderful and its a great keepsake for the kids and parents! We would definitely use him for future parties.
I was looking for a caricature artist for a big surprise party that I was hosting in my home. I thankfully found Ruy online, and knew right away through his easy and responsive communication style that I made the right choice.
Ruy arrived early, allowing him time to set up and start drawing our party guests. Everyone was excited to have him and he did a spectacular job with the drawings. I would hire him again and I highly recommend having Ruy draw his caricatures at any event! ---Ruy also did a special drawing for the guest of honor in his studio at home... it was fantastic, a huge hit, and looks exactly like the picture I provided.
Price Range: $90-$120

I provide 11x14 black marker caricature portraits with grey pastel shading. Color portraits available as well. I provide plastic bags for protection. It takes me 5 minutes to set up my easel and all I need from you is 3 chairs and a lighted area to work but I bring my own lighting just in case.
