I had a friend Venmo the $75 as I only use Zelle and PayPal. Sent the confirmation and he acknowledged it. I checked in a week before Father's Day and he said he was on track to deliver.

I saw Damon awhile ago at Seaport Village. He was so great with my toddler. He did a caricature of…read morehim and it came out so cute. But what was most notable was on top of producing a great caricature that is still hanging in my son's room but he had my otherwise standoffish little guy (at the time) cracking up the whole time. His style is very fresh and he is a true talent. We recently saw him at the San Diego County Fair. We didn't get a chance to sit for a new caricature but we did stop and watch for a little bit. Still as talented as before and then some. He was doing a themed couple caricature. It came out really cool. A friend of mine had seen him a couple times at Phil's BBQ and got a family caricature done as her family grew over the year. She has them framed in her house too.

I highly recommend them. I feel bad for the balloon artists bc they create these magical masterpieces and some of the kids would pop the balloons within 5 minutes. Regardless, I would hire them again. We had two artists and it was perfect for about 30-40 kids. We actually had to extend their time b/c 1.5 hours wasn't enough. We ended using them for the entire duration of the event. Drew and Mike were my balloon artists--I would welcome them back!

What makes Collin 5 stars? - she's professional and friendly - she arrived early to set up and started right on time as scheduled - she's responsive via text and email - her prices are reasonable ($125/hr) and she includes a plastic cover for each portrait - she had amazing caricature skills and can finish each portrait within minutes. She's patient with kids and can even add pets to your portrait if you show her a picture of them ;) I highly recommend using Collin for your next event!

From the owner: I specialize in creating caricatures for kids, couples and families in a cute, cartoony style that…read moreis especially appealing to children. I like to add fun whimsical elements, like animals or backgrounds that tie the portrait to a playful theme. I charge $125/hour and require 2 hour min booking ($250). In 2 hours I can create approximately: 30 black & white single face portraits OR 16 colored single face portraits OR 8 colored single full body portraits with a background. Multiple people in a single picture will require more time and should be considered when thinking about how long to make the booking. I require 50% deposit upon booking, refundable up to 30 days before event. Will travel anywhere in the San Diego North County, Temecula and Murrieta. I typically create my portraits on 12x16 paper, but can work with you if a different dimension or cardstock is needed. I also do commission work if you require pre-made caricatures for your wedding or other event. Price quotes will be based on the overall time it will take to complete the work as outlined above. To provide an accurate quote for commission work, please provide the following information: What is the total number of portraits required? Do you have clear photos of the people you want drawn? Do you want Face only or Full body portraits? Do you want Single face or Multiple face portraits? Do you want Black & White or Colored portraits? I love forward to hearing from you! Please visit my website for availability.

Brian was doing caricatures at an event I went to last week…read more.. The theme was 'Alice In Wonderland' and Brian did an awesome job working our faces into a fun little Mad Hatter scene. My sister and I thought the illustration was perfect. He was also pretty quick with it all, and he even colored everything in! We had to wait for a few other people who were in line before us, but the wait wasnt long at all. I thought it was an awesome idea for an event instead of a photographer. It was something a little fresh and fun to add to an already excellent little party. Brian said he also specializes in other forms of art like animation, illustrations, etc...
