Dominic is the best! I have attended a couple events where he was present and it is always a good time. He is frequently and skillful! Highly recommended read more

If I could give you 10 stars I would. There's a reason why he has 5 star reviews. You want to make your event unforgettable? Book Dominik NOW! Can't say enuff about this guy. Great attitude, always smiling, he went non-stop. I actually felt horrible I didn't get him a plate of food my mind was on hosting and our guest. Dominik THANK YOU again our guest truly enjoyed your service and the quality and images were spot on. I'll be visiting the cafe very soon thanks again read more

Dominic is awesome! We hired him for our son's 3rd birthday party. He was on time and the only thing he needed was a place to sit for himself and the people wanting the art. We booked him for two hours and during our session asked for additional 30 minutes because more people were interested than I had originally planned. He takes Venmo so super easy and efficient. Everyone loves their art and I had lot of friends who thought he was great so they wanted to use his services for their future parties. I would say it's a hit! He's better than getting balloon art of face painting for kids birthday parties since you can frame your art and it will last a lifetime! read more

I have to say that Dominic is very talented. He is also very personable which makes it very easy and refreshing to sit down with him while having a caricature drawn. He pays close attention to detail and that is evident once you receive the finished product. It took him about 10mins or so to draw our caricature of two people at a Yelp event. I definitely recommend him for birthday parties, corporate events, weddings, etc. Oh what fun! read more

I just got some art work done and this guy is very responsive and willing to edit the work to your needs

Found Cartoon Slinger on Yelp and decided to go with him because of the great reviews. He was very responsive and getting back to me via email with his prices and what he could do. I needed a last minute caricature to gift to the cast of my new game show Best Ever Trivia Show, on the Game Show Network, pre-miering on June 10 - - (a shameless plug for my show). Cartoon Slinger made a color digital print available within 24 hours - it came out beautifully as a poster and on the crew's jerseys (see the two pics). I would definitely use Cartoon Slinger again - he worked well with my T-shirt printing gig and was just overall very nice and prompt. Thanks so much - Sherri Shepherd firmer cohost of ABC's "The View"... costar of "30 Rock" ... "Trial & Error" and the new GSN game show "Best Ever Trivia Show" read more

Dominic is awesome! Had my drawing done at my University's events and I was so nervous, but it came out great! Makes it personal by asking about your interests and then incorporating that into the drawing. I took a card and will definitely try to get another! read more

Cartoon Slinger - Caricatures Near Me

I hired Dominic to do an all night grad night party for University High School in Irvine last June. He was great to work with from beginning to end. He started his scheduled time after the kids had already arrived, which was planned, and he was able to jump right in and take care of business without any hesitation. His work is amazing; the kids loved it. Every time I walked by there was always somebody waiting to be drawn and a few spectators looking on. My only regret is that I didn't get a chance to have Dominic draw a caricature for me! I would highly recommend having Dominic aka Cartoon Slinger at your next event. read more

Dominic was awesome! He created super fun pictures of everyone at the party. I would definitely hire him again in the future!

We hired Dominic for our wedding and from the first email to the day of when all was done, he was extremely responsive, friendly and personable. I was a little hesitant to hire a caricaturist solely on their website photos, but I'm so glad we decided to go with Dominic. His art is even better in person! My favorite was of my dad's caricature that looked exactly like him! I loved it!! There was a second caricaturist that he brought with him, who was good but had a very different, cartoony style. So I heard everyone was waiting for their turn with Dominic because he's just that talented. The caricaturists were the hit of the wedding and I cannot thank them enough! It was a great souvenir for our guests and for us! Highly recommended! As a side tip for parties, my brother eventually came up with the genius idea of a numbering system to help the line go smoother and let everyone enjoy their time at the wedding without losing their place in line. Hand out numbers and ask the DJ to announce the numbers as it came up. Definitely set this up beforehand if you're planning on having a big party! read more

We wanted Dominic/Cartoon Slinger to draw caricatures at our wedding for our guest as party favors. We loved this idea because that was how my husband proposed to me and because we wanted to do something nontraditional and creative. Well, it was the right decision! It was such a big hit at our wedding! We hired Dominic and a second caricaturist because we had a lot of guests and wanted more people to have a chance to get their caricatures drawn without such a long wait. In hind sight I think I should have hired three! However, I think Dominic is the best. My guest loved their drawings! Many even posted them as their Facebook profile picture the next day! Dominic is friendly, professional and personable. When it was time for him to leave, he made sure that my husband and I got our caricatures drawn before he left. I still have my drawing and it puts a smile on my face every time I look at it. :) read more

Cartoon Slinger - Our caricatures drawn by Dominic/Cartoon Slinger on our wedding day! - Caricatures Near Me

We had our wedding in August and decided to present some fun hours for the guests and he did deliver a perfect time for everyone. He even stayed a bit longer to make sure we, as the bride and groom get our picture. Everyone was happy and he is fast in what he does :) The pictures are great and a funny memory for guests. He is easy to talk to and arrived on day for our wedding day. Thank you for the great day! read more

What a personable and friendly talented artist. He is hired by our local high school every year at the After Prom party, and he does a great job and it's super friendly and nice to the students and adults. I'm very impressed by his work, and how personable he is! read more

Unfortunately, we were not very happy with the artist and overall experience. To start off, I kept seeing all these reviews saying how awesome Dominic was, so that's who I thought I was getting, but that's not who showed up. Dominic contracts other artists and we didn't know that. This wouldn't have been that bad, but... The guy who showed up, Adrian, was not very friendly. He was not rude or anything like that, but he just seemed like he didn't want to be there and never flashed a smile while interacting with him. From my perspective, it would have been nice to have my guests interact with someone who projects a pleasant personality. Secondly, his caricatures did not look anything like my guests. I'm not saying he wasn't a good artist because the drawings themselves looked professional, but when comparing them to the person they were based on, it did not look like them. For example, he'd make sure the caricature was bald if the guest was bald, but none of the facial elements came out and that was very disappointing. I asked several of my guests what they thought of the drawings and none of them thought it actually looked like them in the picture. In the end, he showed up on time and did the drawings, but there was a lot left to be desired. read more

Dominic was fantastic! I booked him for our corporate event and he was the talk of the party. Everyone loved his drawings, he was so professional, friendly and easy to work with. When someone sat down he asked them what they'd like him to draw them with/or as - we had some fun ones, people riding unicorns, dinosaurs, etc., he could do it all! He arrived early and got started right away, I was very impressed. I would hire him again in a second and I know I will for another party. Thanks Dominic! read more

Amazingly gifted artist! We hired Dominic for a company event and he was a hit. He is extremely talented. He arrived early to set up and stayed the entire event working through the line of people. We look forward to working with him for future events. read more

We hired Dominic for my daughter's first birthday and he was amazing to work with! Super easy going, good conversationalist, and a great artist! All of our party guests loved their caricatures! read more

Mario came to our party yesterday. It was my son's 1st birthday. We had about 60 people, mostly adults. Mario did a great job, drawing consistently for the 3 hours we hired him for. Everyone kept remarking how good he was and how closely his drawings resembled them. Mario was very friendly and seemed very comfortable with his skill. In chatting with him, he mentioned that he's done several parties, birthday and business. Cartoon Slinger as a group was great too. I came up with the idea last minute and texted the number about two days before the party. Someone got back to me right away and I had the a artist booked within that same evening. Thanks guys!! Loved the experience!! I'll keep you in my contacts!! read more

Dominic was awesome!! We had a Sweet 16 party for our daughter and he was amazing with how he captured each girl's personality in their caricature...he is truly talented! He showed up on time, was set up and ready to go before our first guest arrived and got straight to work giving each of the girls a great souvenir to take home from the party. He is a super friendly guy and we enjoyed talking to him during a few down times when the girls were busy with other things. I would not hesitate to call him again. read more

Dominic was Awesome! I would highly recommend him. I would hire him again for future events. He was friendly with everyone. My guests enjoyed their caricature so much, and a lot of them have posted their art on FB and Instagram. I asked Dominic if he could stay longer and thank goodness we were his last event. So he stayed. I'm not sure how long it would take him to do each person, but everyone stated that he was pretty quick. He made it a point to make sure that my husband and I (Hosting the party) had our caricature done. I thought that was very thoughtful of him. Dominic!!! Thank you!! read more

Cartoon Slinger - 50th birthday party - Caricatures Near Me

Excellent, fast, friendly, helpful and willing to work with you on your ideas if he can. Highly recommend him for fun parties and look forward to using his service at my office for kids events some day. I called Dominic to ask if he could add a caricature to an existing drawing. This is not a standard project request so I wasn't sure if he'd do it or how long it would take. When I asked if he could do it he said sure no problem he'll just do a proof to make sure we are both on the same page. Well without even meeting him, after my first call he had a proof to me that same morning. He was nice and open to small adjustments because this was a little different project to suit my needs. Within that same day I had the final product and it looked great. Dominic has a good eye for esthetics and is able to arrange & sizes things to be esthetically pleasing. Anyone who has talent and is also polite, friendly and accommodating will always be way ahead of the competition. read more

Dominic recently supported Walk With Sally - an LA based non-profit with his talents! He did an amazing job drawing straight through his time with us. He also provided a great rate. Thank you for your work with us and supporting kids impacted by cancer! read more

I needed a caricature at the last minute for an addition to a proposal and Dominic was able to get me a sketch within an hour and then complete the artwork the same day I ordered. It turned out great. Highly recommend. read more

I hired Dominic for my best friend's coed wedding shower last summer, because I personally hate showers and wanted to have non-traditional shower festivities that would be fun for guys and girls. So, instead of boring shower games, we had a beer pong tournament and a Caricaturist. Dominic was a total hit! Everyone loved the idea, and all 40 guests had a great, creative keepsake to remember the day by. I still have the one he did of me, my boyfriend, and our dog framed in our bedroom, and the happy bride and groom actually had their caricature made into personalized thank you cards for their wedding. Not only is Dominic extremely talented, he's very personable and makes the normally tedious task of sitting there enjoyable and the time pass by like a flash. Check out the my caricature in my pics! read more

I first worked with Dominic a few years ago at a corporate event in Los Angeles. Since then, we've worked together multiple times and I've always been impressed with his caricatures. He is the fastest caricaturist with whom I have worked, and everybody gets a small plastic bag to hold their artwork. Highly recommended. read more

This was my second time hiring Dominic. He's truly amazing! He's super friendly and professional. I love his work. I will continue hiring him for many events to come, including my wedding. He is always the hit of the party, and that is hard to do when you have other entrainment such as face painters, characters, and a bounce house going on. I would give him 10 stars if I could. Do not hesitate to have him at your next event. read more

Dominic just joined us on a yacht for our christmas party and did any excellent job drawing all of our pictures. He's so nice and easy going very pleasant to be around. I will definitly keep him in mind for future events and refer him to friends. read more

WHoo-Hoo! We hired Dominic for my son's 1 year birthday party and we could not have been more pleased! His work is amazing and my guests were waiting in the hot sun because they wanted to make sure they got their graphic done. I am bummed that I missed out on this Yelp deal - boo! Dominic was very friendly and professional - we tried to extend the time because he was so popular with our guests, but he had two other gigs that day - busy man! I selected the pre-printed paper so that was part of the guest party favor. Great job, Dominic! When our next baby turns one I am definitely having you come to his/her party too! read more

We met Dominic at a wedding that we were attending back in March, we had our picture drawn and it came out great. He makes you feel very comfortable while he is doing your drawing. We were really impressed with the way our picture came out; it really looks just like us. We were so impressed that we hired Dominic to be at our wedding in April. He was a huge hit! All our guests were so excited to get their pictures done. Dominic was such a hit that not all our guests could get their pictures done in the time frame we had hired him for, so he offered to stay longer so everyone could get their picture done. Dominic went above and beyond to make our day special, we are so happy that he could be apart of our day. We will definitely recommend Dominic to everyone we know. read more

I hired Julio through Dominic and Cartoon Slinger for my company's picnic Saturday (4/16/16). Julio showed up a little early to set-up and warm up his drawing skills. From the moment he showed up people were asking if he was ready yet. He was very patient and friendly with the younger kids who couldn't wait to be drawn and very professional and warm with the adults of our group. Everyone loved him and his drawings were amazing! He captured our likenesses perfectly! If you need a caricature artist, I highly recommend Julio. It was an absolute pleasure to have him and I would hire him again for my next event. read more
