Nick was a huge hit during our cocktail hour with our guests! He was very professional for our black-tie wedding, brought out huge smiles, and distracted our guests from the wind too. We highly recommend Nick for your next event!

Nick did a great job with creating amazing caricatures for our PaulB Lititz Ladies' Night event! He stays focused and produces drawings quickly and efficiently, while not skimping on amazingness! I highly recommend him for any event.
We booked Nick previously and were ready to bring him back! He was great to work with again. Quick, good work. Very minimal set up and worked to make sure everybody that wanted a caricature got one!

Nick was awesome for my child’s birthday party. He drew the kids, the adults, even the dog, and was so kind and fun and professional the entire time. He constantly had a few kids watching over his shoulder and I love that they were so interested in what he was doing. Highly recommend!

Our students loved having a caricature artist at Prom and I am so glad we found Nick! He was friendly with everyone, extremely professional and added a personalized sign to each caricature for our prom with our school name (which was so neat)! We will absolutely be keeping him in mind for our future events.

Nick was inundated by our students from the time he sat down to put pen to paper until he left…
He battled 95 traffic to get to Downtown Annapolis on-time and you would have never known- consummate professional.
Everyone loved his work and left happy-
Thank you Nick!

We hired Nick for our daughter's 13th birthday and everyone left the party with their very own caricature! Everyone had the opportunity to have their caricature drawn by Nick who is just an absolutely, fantastically talented artist! All of the guests walked away with a work of art as a party favor. People are still talking about how awesome it was to have Nick at the party! We will hire him again, for sure! THANK YOU, NICK!

Nick did a great job at PaulB Hardware for our recent Ladies night event. Nick was on time, and very polite, and got right to work. Long lines indicated alot of interest in customers having a sketch of themselves or with a friend. Will definitely be invited again!

Hi Grace, thanks so much for having me out for the birthday party! Everyone was a lot of fun and the kids kept me busy drawing the whole time. It was a great time and I'm glad to hear everyone loved the caricatures!
Most recently we held an intimate gathering for my husband's 30th Birthday, and we were looking for something a bit more unique and personal than just a photobooth.... and a caricaturist was the perfect addition for that! Nick was amazing, so flexible and patient with us while we facilitated our party. Our guests absolutely loved the caricatures and NIck! We will most definitely be booking him again. 10/10 recommend!

Hi Melissa, thanks so much for the kind review! It was a pleasure getting to draw at your wonderful Christmas party and hope everyone had a great time!
Nick was quick to respond to the inquiries,
On time, friendly, quick to draw, easy going, and professional. Not to mention willing to sit outside in the heat of June! Nick did not disappoint. I'm very thankful for his service.
Nick was amazing! He was so awesome to set up absolutely any where we wanted and he literally just sat down before his first client arrived. Everyone loved it! Especially the couples. He was spot on with his drawings and everyone loved seeing each other's drawings and laughing with good times. It brought people together that didn't know each other by allowing a great conversation starter! He was awesome and professional and so much fun! He made you feel comfortable and he is super fast! Thank you Nick! We are so thankful you made it!
Caricaturist
Nick was a huge hit with my guests. And he is very fast! Everytime I looked over he was drawing his little heart out. He drew about 40 guests in two hours. He was on time, charismatic, dressed well and very professional! I would recommend him to anyone and hopefully he had a good experience at my wedding. P.S. Dont forget to get your guests to tip!
Thanks again Nick!
