About Vibrant Color Caricatures
Color caricatures add that extra pop to your event compared to standard black and white sketches. While the process is more detailed—taking about 7 to 9 minutes per face—the result is a vibrant, frame-worthy keepsake that guests are genuinely excited to take home.
Because these sketches involve layering pastels and markers to get those bright tones, I prioritize quality over sheer volume. This makes them perfect for smaller, more intimate settings or as a premium add-on at larger events where you want your guests to feel truly special.
I bring everything needed for the setup, including high-quality heavy weight A3 paper that keeps the ink from bleeding and ensures the colors stay bright for years. Whether it is a wedding, a corporate mixer, or a birthday party, my goal is to capture the subject's personality with bold lines and a splash of color that makes the drawing pop.
I am based in Pune but frequently travel across Maharashtra and India for events. If you are planning a celebration and want to provide your guests with a fun, personalized souvenir that will get everyone laughing, let's chat about what works best for your crowd size and schedule.

I am Philip, and I have been sketching faces at events since 2012. I love the buzz of a live crowd, especially when I get to add a bit of color to capture the mood. My goal is always to keep the laughter going while giving your guests a piece of art they will actually keep.
