John Steven Gurney was GREAT !!! He is an incredible artist. We have had magicians, face painting, dunk tanks, etc..... however, John was the best person/talent we have had yet! I would recommend him to anyone who is looking for talent/entertainment for any event! He showed up early, prepared and everyone he drew was very impressed. He's is a great artist and nice overall guy. Thanks for the memories!

Wedding•Reviewed on September 30, 2019•From Hanover, NH

He was the hit of our wedding! Everyone wanted to sit down with him and get there drawing done. We actually had to pay him extra to stay longer as the line never died down. If you're looking for something fun and unique that your guest will love, John is that person for you. All my guest loved that they had something to take home that they could remember the wedding by.

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on September 16, 2018•From Johnson, VT

John willingly traveled over 2 hours to our wedding reception and while we had planned only 4 hours, he graciously agreed to 2 more because everyone loved his work and he had a constant line all night. All his pictures captured each guest and made such it such a fun time! He was fast, efficient and friendly! We are so thankful to have found him on here!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on June 11, 2018•From Rochester, NH

If I could give 6 out of 5 stars for John I would. He was great to have at our wedding reception (even though we kept him over an hour past the agreed end time). Very friendly, very professional, very talented. His art was a hit for sure! 10/10 recommend!

Birthday Party (Kids)•Reviewed on May 2, 2017•From Brooklyn, NY

John did excellent work. Each rendering was distinctive and reflected the person drawn quite accurately. The kids (13 - 14 years old) were very distracted with other activities at a party. John waited patiently for about 1 and half until they focused on the opportunity to be drawn. When the kids finally came to get their drawings done John worked quickly to accommodate all the demand and managed to get beautiful work done. He also extended the time by 30 minutes to ensure all the kids who were interested in drawings had a chance to be drawn.

I used him in my wedding in 2010 and again now in 2017 for my daughter's wedding. His work is so amazing!! I wish I could post some of his work so everyone can view how cool it is. I would definitely recommend him to anyone. I will continue to use him every chance I get...

Gracious, friendly and professional! John was fantastic! We hired him for an Open Market event and folks were lined up to have him draw them. He worked fast and conversed well with everyone sitting in his chair... and they were so happy with the final results. He even drew babies and pets! We had a special request for all the drawings and he was very accommodating. A true professional and a great artist. I would highly recommend him for any event! You won't be disappointed.

Family Reunion•Reviewed on August 21, 2016•From Billerica, MA

John is a talented artist, a lovely person, and very professional. His interactions with children and adults as he is drawing puts them at ease. He is very relatable to all ages. Having him at our event was a lot of fun for everyone, and each person loved their caricature! We would definitely recommend him for any event.

John is terrific to work with. There was a line for his chair our entire event. His work was fun, imaginative, and enjoyed by all of our guests. He has our full endorsement.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on May 24, 2016•From Sandown, NH

John was amazing. His caricatures were very realistic and fun and we ended up paying to keep him an extra hour the day of our event. He worked for 4 hours with barely a bathroom break and turned out a remarkable amount of caricature portraits. My guests are still talking about him and his work and I'm already wondering when I can throw another party to have him back!

John was extremely professional and talented. Everyone who attended my mom's surprise birthday was very impressed with his charicatures. This definitely was a big highlight to the party. I was 100% satisfied with John's work and I would highly recommend him. I look forward to booking him again in the future!
