Your Event

Regarding his live caricatures, Mark Reeve's expertise shines through:

  1. Mark produces polished caricatures in a remarkably swift 3-5 minutes per drawing. These aren't mere 'felt tip squiggles'; instead, he employs a steel nib complemented by a brush pen and tonal markers, resulting in approximately 15-20 caricatures per hour.

  2. Tailoring his approach to individual preferences, Mark has the skill to render images either in a more whimsical and cartoony style or in a more realistic, portrait-like manner.

  3. Clients have the option to choose between vibrant color or classic black and white, with the understanding that adding color may slightly extend the drawing time.

  4. One of Mark's standout qualities is his ability to create caricatures that genuinely resemble the subjects. The portraits capture the unique features and personalities of the individuals, ensuring that the finished drawings authentically represent the people they are meant to depict.
