Caricatures by Mike Valentine Caricaturist from Davenport, FL

Mike was a wonderful addition to our in home Christmas party of 100+ guests. His work was quick and fun … since we had so many guests, we suggested to him that he do BW 8x12 .. with maybe some color highlights. Mike did just that and was able to do many quick drawings to the delight of our guests. He was on time, professional, friendly, and we would recommend him highly.

Very pleased with Mike's work.

We hired Mike from 4-7 with about 60 guests, hoping everyone could go home with a caricature. While he is a talented artist, he worked much slower than expected. He only got through 13 sittings, (some with 2 people) which left Most guests without a picture. I think the event may have been a bit too large for him to manage in the time we had, and it would have helped to know up front what was realistically possible. Doing just black & white pics instead of color might have sped things up. He also accepted money during the event, which felt uncomfortable, since the service was paid for. I'd recommend him for smaller events. And he needs to UPDATE profile pic
