Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on September 2, 2010•From Augusta, GA

OMG, Leon was so great! He handled a big party very well! All my guests were pleased with their art! Leon personalized each drawing quickly. He communicated with me from the time I placed my ad til the time he left the event. I will definitely be using his services again!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on May 18, 2010•From Independence, VA

We hoped a Caricature Artist would add a special element of fun to our daughter's wedding reception and Leon came through for us 100%. He was very friendly and professional. His wonderful and imaginative talent was appreciated by all of our guests. Everyone got a kick out of his drawings and took home a great momento from the wedding celebration.

Leon was absolutely fantastic! He was a huge hit at the company party and everyone loved him. I am sure we will be using him for future events. He was professional, punctual and very flexible with all the people we had come through. He completed so many sketches in a very timely manner and they were all excellent. He definitely made the party and I highly recommend him to anyone! Well worth the money and we were so glad to have him!

Grand Opening•Reviewed on March 20, 2010•From Mount Pleasant, SC

Leon was amazing. He showed up exactly when he said, 30 minutes early was set up and ready to go when the event began (even before). He never had a break for 4 1/2 hours - constantly drawing and entertaining. I would highly recommend him for your next event.

Leon was absolutely amazing. My membership was thrilled with his artwork. I would recommend him most highly. And I'm going to spread the word about him. I would definitely hire him again. I was very nervous as to how this would go over with my membership and Leon made it a success!

Christmas Party•Reviewed on December 5, 2008•From Denver, NC

Leon Miller did an outstanding job for us at our dinner party. We were looking for someone to help us create a special keepsake for our friends. Leon met that need perfectly. He created a unique color caricature of each couple, reflecting their special interests and unique personalities. He was prompt and professional in every way. He was friendly and engaging with our guests while allowing us to enjoy our dinner and games together while he created a masterpiece for each couple to take home. We enthusiastically recommend Leon to anyone who wants their party or dinner to be truly special for their guests.

Leon was very professional, very polite, and the guests loved him. He showed up on time, set up with minimum fuss, and was a hit with the children in particular.

Christening•Reviewed on December 27, 2007•From Columbia, SC

Dear Gigmasters, Leon was a "no show". I'm sure as party planner you can understand my frustration and anger. I thought you should know that this talent is undependable, and a flake. I sent 2 confirmation emails days before the event with the date time and venue clearly stated. The email was returned confirming he would be there. Clearly he was not! Mr. Leon, I am so disappointed and upset, I don't know where to begin. As an entertainer, your talent and your ability to show up to a confirmed gig are two most critical elements in your line of work. To not show up after 2 confirmation emails including date, time , and venue is inexcusable! You left a

The matter was cleared up. A miscommunication of CHANGE OF DATE was not confirmed. The previous booked date was December 27, 2007 and was confirmed. The new date of December 26, 2007 was not confirmed.There was not a changed of date message sent prior to the event or phone call checking availability of the artist on the day before. Please note that in 2007 the artist was not receiving deposits so there was no loss of funds or scam of requiring deposits then not showing up as would not be in character of Leon the Artist. Leon enjoys his work immensely and has not received a negative review since. Since this event a contract reiterating terms, date, etc are discus

Fundraiser•Reviewed on February 8, 2015•From High Point, NC

Please understand than I really can't rate Leon on his performance at the event as he didn't come. He called me at about 11:15 (he was scheduled to arrive about noon to set up for the start of the event at 1 pm) to tell me he had car problems that morning and was still in Tennessee and couldn't get to High Point, NC in time for the event. We have, of course, asked for a refund of our deposit. I will say that in responding to questions to get clarity about needs and what he could and would provide, Leon was generally very prompt in replying. It is unfortunate that he was not able to come.

Leon's contribution to our annual company meeting was fantastic. He's as exceptionally talented as he is personable and professional. Always greeting everyone with a warm smile and kind words, he was exactly where he needed to be, even when we didn't have time to direct him. Considering the huge venue we were in, his ability to be on time and ready was all the more impressive. On top of that, he effortlessly accommodated a couple last minute requests that I thought might cause issues. His caricatures are simply fantastic. We would gladly hire him again and again if the need came up. I wouldn't even go through bidding, just hire on the spot. He's that good.
