FAQ about hiring Caricaturists

How much does it cost to hire a caricaturist?

expand

On average, a caricaturist costs $200-$300 for about 2 hours. The price will vary depending on your location, the length of the event, their skill level and years of experience, and the number of guests the artist will need to draw.

How long do caricature drawings take?

expand

Depending on the level of detail in the drawings, most caricaturists can do 10-15 black and white drawings an hour. So each drawing will take about 4-6 minutes. If you’d like the artist to add color, that could add another 4-5 minutes per person.

For larger events, you may want to consider hiring multiple caricature artists so more guests can be accommodated. You could also book additional artists like face painters, balloon twisters, and temporary tattoo artists to give your attendees more options.

What kind of events are good for booking caricaturists?

expand

Caricaturists provide both entertainment for your guests and a fun souvenir to remember your event. This makes them a great choice for corporate events, product launches, trade shows, birthday parties, college events, reunions, and even wedding receptions!

How much space do caricature artists need?

expand

When drawing caricatures at events, artists will require a dedicated area for them to work. Generally, about 5x8 feet of space will do the trick. The artist needs enough room for their easel as well as space for guests to sit to be drawn.

What equipment does a caricaturist need?

expand

Caricature artists will bring their own drawing equipment, including paper, drawing utensils, and an easel or drawing table. They may bring their own chair as well, but it’d be good to provide one for them. You’ll also need 1-2 chairs or a bench for the guests to sit on while being drawn. Discuss the setup with your artist in advance of the event to make sure everything runs smoothly.
