David was a pleasure to work with. Not only did he keep in contact throughout the process, but his caricatures are amazing. We will definitely keep him in mind for future events. Also, he made sure to show up on time before our event started and kept our students entertained the whole time he was there.

Wonderful Addition to Our Fundraiser! We had the pleasure of working with David as the caricaturist artist for our major fundraiser, the Fur Ball, benefiting the SPCA of Southwest Michigan—and we couldn't be happier with the experience! David's artwork was a huge hit with our guests. His fun and creative caricatures of both people and their dogs brought so much joy and laughter to the event. We weren’t sure how to fill a particular space at the venue, and choosing David turned out to be the perfect solution. He was incredibly professional, friendly, and flexible—especially when we had to make a last-minute schedule change. He arrived early to set up his station, was completely self-sufficient throughout the night, and made sure each guest felt comfortable and engaged during their portrait session. We would absolutely work with David again and highly recommend him for any event looking for a unique and interactive experience. Thank you, David, for helping make our night so special! — SPCA of Southwest Michigan

We had David draw caricatures for our office family holiday party, and it was an amazing experience. David was quick with responding when planning the event and everyone had a great time having their pictures drawn. We highly recommend David if you are looking for a quality, professional artist.

David was a highlight of our company’s holiday party! He brought such warmth and personality to the event. Kind, engaging, and putting everyone at ease as they sat for their caricature. Our team couldn’t stop raving about how fun the experience was, and the custom drawings became great keepsakes people were excited to take home. We’d gladly have him back for future events!

David was awesome! We had him do caricatures for our wedding and he made the process so easy, and gave us one less thing to worry about for the day. All of our guests talked about how nice he was, and how amazing his work was. One of our favorite things was going table to table to greet guests and seeing the most wonderful caricatures of each of them! At the end of our time, we still had a line ready for him, and he was nice enough to offer to stay so that everyone could get a chance for a drawing. We are so happy to have him be a part of our night, he made it the most sweet and memorable evening!
