Family ReunionReviewed on September 9, 2024From Bridgeville, PA

I am more than happy to leave a review for Marie. She was very personable, friendly and professional. Arrived early and was all set up for the first arrivals. Was very tolerant with the children and never commented on their restlessness. Marie is booked for my granddaughter's 30th birthday on the 21st and I highly recommended her talent to my daughter-in-law. I would definately recommend her to my friends and family. She kept track of thecompleted caricatures and made sure she did everyone. It was a pleasure working with her. Sooo friendly!!!!!

Hi Liz, Thank you for your kind comments! The children were a delight to draw. I look forward to seeing you and your family again at your granddaughter's birthday party. What a surprising coincidence! Thank you again, Marie

Corporate FunctionReviewed on June 13, 2024From Pittsburgh, PA

Marie was super friendly and great at communicating prior to the event! She also arrived to our event early, which I appreciated. Regarding the artwork, she's quite impressive - her drawings are accurate and detailed! She also worked super quickly, so she's a good pick if you have a large group. I would definitely hire Marie again in the future.

Thank you so much, Alyssa! I really enjoyed meeting you and drawing your group! It was a pleasure working with you. Thanks again
