Review by Jeanne W.

Corporate Function•Reviewed on September 27, 2019•From Chicago, IL

We found Ellen to be very personable and her caricatures were well received. She was very efficient insofar as scheduling, billing and communication. We highly recommend Ellen and look forward to working with her again.

Ellen was amazing. She was such a great factor in our party of 13-year-old girls. They loved it! Thanks, Ellen!

Family Reunion•Reviewed on May 28, 2019•From Chicago, IL

Ellen was great and all the kids and adults LOVED IT! She is very warm and smiley person which matters a lot when you deal with kids, especially small kids. We hired Ellen for a Communion dinner in a restaurant and could not be happier! She has amazing talent and guests LOVED it all!

Thanks you Karolina for your wonderful review. I thoroughly enjoyed entertaining and drawing your guests and meeting your friends and family. Ellen

Corporate Function•Reviewed on March 26, 2018•From Chicago, IL

Ellen is truly a gifted artist. She demonstrated a high degree of professionalism, punctuality and most importantly was willing to go above and beyond to give the attendees at our event a sensational experience. She was a real hit! Highly recommend.

Wedding•Reviewed on July 17, 2017•From Lansing, MI

Payment for the extra hours was suppose to be made at the end of the night and I asked her what I owed her and she told me the price which I payed. Two days later I got an email saying I owed her for one more hour. I also asked if she could put the whole wedding party into one picture and she informed me that she would have to do it at home and did not no the price it would cost, so I asked her to let me know how much it would cost. When she sent me the email two day later she not only said I owe her for the additional hour, she also drew the picture and sent me a bill for it without letting me know the price before hand. Unhappy with the way she handled things.

Corporate Function•Reviewed on November 7, 2016•From Chicago, IL

Our event was a very professional event, in which we asked Ellen to come and draw our visitors, I think she did a great job. She used a color cartoon electronic medium, which worked very well with this audience. She was very accommodating. I would hire her again.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on December 17, 2014•From Elmhurst, IL

When she arrived...she just was joyful/exuberant or anything of the like to be there. She did everything in a perfunctory manner. I didn't see her smile once or be solicitous with our guests.

This review was written 5 1/2 years after the gig. I tried to reach out to this client to find out why he wrote this review and was disconnected 3 times. I don't know why this client wrote this, but as you can see from my other reviews it is not in keeping with my work.

Christmas Party•Reviewed on December 7, 2014•From Clarendon Hills, IL

Ellen drew at our Christmas party and was a HUGE hit! Her drawings were fantastic - very sweet, versus some of the more exaggerated caricatures out there. She was pleasant and friendly, and our guests loved her. We had a larger than anticipated crowd, and Ellen handled everyone beautifully! Would highly recommend Ellen to anyone looking for unique party entertainment!

Corporate Function•Reviewed on June 19, 2014•From Villa Park, IL

Ellen was wonderful at our corporate event! Her drawings really captured the person she was drawing and was very accommodating. Ellen is very talented and we wouldn't hesitate to hire her again for another event! One of the best!

Bat Mitzvah•Reviewed on October 8, 2013•From Chicago, IL

Ellen Lustig did a terrific job at our daughter's Bat Mitzvah. We had a large group of 80-85 kids and Ellen worked patiently, efficiently and diligently to complete the drawings for each kid who requested one (and even for some adults). She organized the kids on a waiting list and thoughtfully provided a plastic sleeve for each drawing. She even stayed a few extra minutes to do caricatures of kids who did not ask for one until the end of the party. Ellen was a pleasure to work with and we would recommend her highly.

Graduation Party•Reviewed on July 1, 2013•From Homer Glen, IL

All of my guests thought Ellen was a very nice personable lady. We were very satisfied with her drawings. She ended up staying much later than I originally planned on and was very accommodating. I would recommend her!
