Melissa was a great addition to our surprise proposal party. All of our guests commented on how talented she was. All of the drawing's were great. So glad I had her draw the proposal picture in advance, it was very special. Melissa played a huge role in the success of the day.

Melissa and her husband did an amazing job! Melissa and Dan have unique styles which make it perfect to have them at the event. It was definitely a highlight of the Awards Banquet!! Would definitely hire them again.

Gigi was a dream to work with. Another artist cancelled on us at the last minute due to illness. Thankfully, Gigi saved the day! Gigi is extremely reliable, professional, easy to work with, a great communicator, accommodating, and always quick to respond. Even though she was only given a few hours notice, Gigi went above and beyond to still pre-print our logo and pre-draw bodies on the paper. Gigi and her husband showed up right on time and ready to work. You could tell they were both very passionate about their craft, and the guests absolutely loved them! The caricature station was such a hit and had guests smiling all evening long.

Wedding ReceptionReviewed on December 30, 2016From Saint Petersburg, FL

Melissa and her husband Dan did Caricatures for our wedding guests. They were an absolute hit! I loved having both of them there, as they draw with different styles, giving guests a choice. It was also very different than the standard photo booth that everyone has at their weddings. Guests loved them, and it gave them a personalized favor to take home with them! Melissa even stayed later than scheduled to make sure my sister and her husband got a caricature. Dan drew a beautiful, full color caricature of my husband and I that was displayed during the reception and is now hanging in our living room! BOOK THEM! You won't regret it!

Wedding ReceptionReviewed on November 8, 2016From Saint Petersburg, FL

Melissa and her husband were AMAZING. Our wedding guests absolutely loved them. Her and her husband each had their own styles so we had guests go back numerous times. Their caricatures were incredible and the one they did of my husband and I for the reception was spectacular. If you want a unique wedding favor or just something to take your party to the next level Melissa is it! Even when the night was over they were packing up and a couple guests ran over because they did not get one and they were gracious enough to stay until everyone had a picture!!! Words can not express how awesome they were, can't wait to hire them again for our next big event!!!!

We have had the pleasure of working with Melissa on several of our corporate events over the past 6 months She has always been an outstanding addition to our function no matter what type of event it is. She has always been extremely helpful with suggestions and bringing signage to enhance our corporate footprint. I would highly recommend her for any event from small party to large corporate function!

Melissa and Dan were fabulous. We had a Wedding in Whoville and they made groom look just like the Grinch. We were thrilled with the results. Highly recommend them. They were pleasant, accommodating and easy to work with - even with the Groomzilla!!

Birthday Party (Kids)Reviewed on October 21, 2013From Tampa, FL

I recently had Gigi come to my son's Birthoween party to do face painting. Not only did she come in costume to go with the theme of the party, but she went above and beyond, making sure everyone got their faces painted! She was an absolute delight and I would love to have her come to another party in the future!

Birthday Party (Kids)Reviewed on December 24, 2013From Wesley Chapel, FL

Melissa aka "Clawdeen Wolf" helped to make my daughter's Monster High themed party a blast! She arrived prior to the party's start time to ensure she had enough set-up time and was geared to go! She came prepared with set-up materials and more than enough supplies for all the guests. She was very professional throughout, formally referring to my husband and I as Mr. and Mrs.. What's more, I hired her for face painting ("monster makeovers") and she arrived in full costume as Clawdeen Wolf and played the role :-) She gave themed nail polish and lip gloss to each girl after their makeovers. I feel she went above and beyond and made her service an experience!!

We hired Melissa for my son's birthday party. She was punctual, actually she arrived early for the set up, she is very professional, entertaining and extremely talented. She was attentive to all the requests and her designs are simply AMAZING! The kids LOVED her as well as the parents! All of her face paintings were fantastic and everyone was impressed by her artistic skills and her kindness! She was definitely THE HIGHLIGHT of the party. THANK YOU Melissa!!! HIGHLY recommended. 5 stars !!!

Gigi was a pleasure to work with. We had her face paint at our event and it went over really well, she painted beautifully, was patient with the children and everyone was extremely pleased. We were very happy to have her join us. Her and her partner Dan make a an excellent working team and offered us a face painting/caricaturist combination. I definitely recommend booking them together.

Oktoberfest PartyReviewed on October 20, 2013From Saint Petersburg, FL

Melissa was professional and friendly. We asked her to stay longer since so many people wanted her drawings, she was very accommodating and we paid her for the additional time. We were amazed at her talent and how fast she was able to render, 45 drawings in 3 1/2 hours. We will use her in the future.
