Traditional LIVE Caricatures OR Silhouettes, that truly make people happy! Your guests will be charmed and AMAZED when you invite caricature/silhouette artist Emily Byrne to your party! It's so much fun to watch spot-on, yet LIGHT-HEARTED likenesses emerge from her pen or scissors, in only minutes per face. Caricatures or silhouettes are actually double the value for your entertainment budget; they're not only a unique, customized live art experience---but Emily's artwork is also the party favor that your attendees will treasure forever! For live events, choose caricatures OR silhouettes, she only does one art form at a time, as they require different set-ups and supplies. Please click on my VIDEOS above to SEE just how much fun her live caricatures and silhouettes can be! :-D CARICATURES: In addition to her 8. 5 x 11 caricatures, Emily is NOW OFFERING "Mini-caricatures" they are 5" x 5" are so cute and easier for your out-of-town guests to transport----smaller size, same fun impact!! Emily has caricatured everyone from newborns to one-hundred-year-olds...and is proud of her going-on-30-years of professional experience at all types of events, from casual to formal. She is known for her delightful, super-specific, uncanny likenesses! She draws approximately 12-14 faces per hour in shaded B&W, OR can do 18-20 faces per hour without the shading. She uses archival ink markers, and quality 8.5 x 11 heavyweight paper. Each drawing gets its own plastic sleeve or translucent envelope. She also offers STEALTH CARICATURES and COASTER CARICATURES, samples are in her gallery. As an award-winning Gold member of the International Society of Caricature Artists, Emily is passionate about her craft. At events, her clients remark that they can plainly see how much she enjoys what she does for a living--putting smiles on faces, both literally and figuratively! SILHOUETTES: Emily has mastered the amazing-to-watch, historic skill of freehand silhouette cutting--no drawing is involved at all, she just looks at each subject and cuts an accurate profile, capturing the essence of each person, in a minute or two! The delightful result then is pasted to a customized-for-your-event 5 x 7 card and placed in a translucent envelope for your guests to take home and treasure. She can cut 15-20 faces per hour. There are only a handful of silhouette artists working events in the WORLD today! VIRTUAL: Emily can service clients anywhere via Zoom or other virtual platforms, if requested. There is a two-hour minimum for all live events; however for wedding receptions and further-away gigs, there is a three-hour minimum and a travel fee depending on distance. For virtual events there is a one-hour minimum. Emily also carries event liability insurance if your venue requires it. Please check out Emily's feedback below from her fantastic The Bash clients--it speaks for itself :-)

Review by Melissa P.

WeddingReviewed on October 20, 2024From Philadelphia, PA

Emily was wonderful! From the start, she was incredibly responsive and made the booking process seamless. Our guests loved their silhouettes, and we now have wonderful keepsakes from our special day. Highly recommend!

Caricatures & Silhouettes by Emily Byrne:

Thank you Melissa, it was a total pleasure cutting silhouettes for your wedding guests in such an amazing, historic venue. I'm glad you all enjoyed it-Thank you for having me!

Review by Vashun T.

Wedding ReceptionReviewed on September 28, 2024From Wilmington, DE

Emily first was dressed the part. She is one of those people that hits a home run on the first impression. She went above and beyond to make sure myself and my wife wishes were taking care of. I can see why every website has her number one. A five star doesn't do her service justice. What she brings to the table five stars can't capture. She is a rock star however very humble.

Caricatures & Silhouettes by Emily Byrne:

Thank you, Vashun, it was a total pleasure to draw at your wedding reception and add my caricatures to the mix of great music, art and joy you and your new wife had going on there! Thanks again!

Review by Tim B.

Community EventReviewed on August 29, 2024From Philadelphia, PA

Emily is fantastic! So good that I am in fact trying to figure out how I can incorporate caricatures in so many more of our events! I highly recommend her not only for her skill and professionalism, but she is just genuinely a great person and a joy to work with!

Caricatures & Silhouettes by Emily Byrne:

Thank you, TIm! It was a blast drawing the students and I would love to return anytime. Thanks for having me stay longer! :-)
