Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on March 31, 2009From Brooklyn, NY

Dan was wonderful to work with. My party date and location was changed and he was able to accomodate me even though it was short notice. He arrived early and was very professional. I would highly recommend him and will definitely use him again in the future.

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on May 26, 2009From Bayside, NY

Dan arrived on time to my son's 1st birthday where he drew caricatures of my guests as favors. Although he barely got through 30 out of the 44 guests in about a 3 hour hour timeframe and what we contracted for, I wish he would have been able to draw everyone. However, this was due to the low lighting at the venue. Overall, Dan was very professional and his caricature drawings were great! The drawings looked very much like the guests and everyone was very satisfied with his work. I would recommend Dan for his caricature talent, quality work, and professionalism.

To be fair, out of all of the gigs I've done, this has been the worst score I received. Every other one was a 5 out of 5 in every category. Why the discrepancy? In this particular case I was very cramped and did not have adequate lighting, so it was hard to see and slowed down the whole process a bit. I always bring my own light, but there was no place to plug it in, so there was nothing to do. I mentioned this to Marcia, but I suppose there was nothing she could do either. One thing that is very important when drawing caricatures, is that you need to be able to see the people you're drawing. It was still able to do about 10 caricatures an hour, which is abo

I could not put into words how satisfied we were with Dan. He was very accommodating at our cocktail party. His pictures were great and we could tell who he was drawing. My guests had fun and really liked their pictures. Dan was great!!

Birthday Party (Kids)Reviewed on July 25, 2009From Newtown, CT

Dan was wonderful. He showed up early (which put me at ease since there were 100 people coming and a lot of little details to pull off) and ready to work. He is very talented and everyone - including all of my artist friends were impressed!! We did have what could have been a real problem which was that Dan and I miscommunicated on the length of time each caricature would take so that is something you'll want to discuss in detail so that no one is disappointed. We worked it out and Dan worked for nearly 5 hours with just one short break. We really appreciated that!! We would highly recommend Dan to all of our friends and family.

Wedding Cocktail HourReviewed on October 4, 2021From New York City, NY

Dan was the highlight of the party! I initially booked for one hour because we had a small group of under 30, and I didn't anticipate everyone would want their caricature done. But Dan was definitely the entertainment of the night, and I was definitely willing to keep him going for almost an extra 2 hours! His caricatures were so amusing, very well-drawn, and "flattering" by not highlighting areas that may make people genuinely self-conscious, which I really appreciated. He had a crowd of onlookers watching him work all evening, and he made polite conversation with the guests. Plus, everyone loved getting to take home their caricature as a party favor. A must-hire!

Rehearsal DinnerReviewed on July 12, 2021From Ridgefield, CT

I hired Dan to add a special touch to a rehearsal dinner in Connecticut. He blew us all away with his talent! He was fast, professional and the best part of our evening! Our guest really enjoyed the funny artwork. I would highly recommend him to anyone. I am so glad we went with Dan. Very well worth every penny and more!

Christmas PartyReviewed on December 25, 2020From Chapel Hill, NC

Dan was pleasant and is really talented. We didn't feel his presence during out Zoom party either--he was able to conduct his work with few interruptions. Almost like he wasn't there. Pleasure to do business with also.

Dan was great. From the moment he sat down, he was drawing non-stop. Everyone liked the quality of his drawings. Dan was easy going and pleasant to deal with, and came totally prepared. Highly recommend.

Baby ShowerReviewed on August 20, 2019From Stroudsburg, PA

We hired Dan for our daughter's baby shower and everyone loved having their picture drawn. He was great at communicating with me and traveled quite a distance to attend the shower. It was a warm day but he just went with the flow and never complained. We loved having him there!!

Wedding ReceptionReviewed on July 3, 2019From Queens Village, NY

Dan was fantastic, everyone at my wedding loved him and were excited to get their caricature done. Dan worked so hard from beginning to end to make sure everyone who lined up got one and they all came out super high quality. I was dying laughing when I saw some of my friends and families' caricatures, he really captured everyone perfectly.

Birthday Party (Kids)Reviewed on May 23, 2019From Maplewood, NJ

Dan is very talented. He did my son's 4th Birthday Party which was Incredibles II themed. Dan drew all the kids' heads on the body of an Incredible at my request. The pictures came out amazing and it was the highlight of the party. All the kids and parents were thrilled and the parents were planning to frame the portraits as a keepsake. I highly recommend Dan and would definitely use him in the future! Nothing but positive things to say about Dan and the overall experience working with him. Thanks again Dan for everything!!

Thanks, Nora- a pleasure working for you! Dan
