About Live Event Caricatures
What I Do
Turning laughter into art is kinda my thing. I show up at your event, set up my art corner, and start sketching your guests live. Nageya rekhegalinda nenapina chitragalu! (Pictures of memories from lines of laughter!) That's what you get - quick, quirky portraits that capture folks in their funniest light.
Two Ways to Get Sketched
- Classic on-paper caricatures - black and white, done in 5 minutes, real markers on real A4 paper. Your guests walk away with their own hand-drawn keepsake.
- Digital party sketches - vibrant colours on my iPad, and if the vibe is right, I put the art up on a big screen so everyone can watch. Prints or digital files, your pick.
Where My Caricatures Fit Best
- Weddings, sangeet, mehendi, engagements
- Birthday parties for kids or grown-ups
- Corporate events, office parties
- Family gatherings and cultural celebrations
Why Folks Love It
The best part? Seeing people crack up at their new cartoon faces. It’s not just a drawing - it’s real-time portrait entertainment that gets everyone talking and laughing together.
My Style
I don’t do perfect portraits. I go for personality, exaggeration, and a bit of cartoon madness. Individuals, couples, families - sometimes with props or themes that tell your story.
The Setup
I’m Bangalore based but always ready to travel. I bring my own gear, just need a small spot and a couple of chairs, and we’re rolling. If you want your guests to take home wedding caricature keepsakes or have fun with event guest cartoon drawing, I’ve got you.

My Story
Cartoons have been my jam since I was a kid. Tom and Jerry, pure joy! Started sketching for fun, then figured out I could draw people’s real selves, but make it hilarious. Now I’m all over India – weddings, airports, you name it. Drawing live, seeing faces light up, that’s the best feeling. Got the Caricature Artist Award 2025, but honestly, making people laugh, especially at family events, is what matters. Chennagide alla? (Isn't it nice?)
My Work
All Event Art Services - I do live caricatures on paper or iPad, digital caricature gifts, blood art, fluid art sessions, and glitter tattoos for weddings, birthdays, sangeet, corporate events—any party!
How My Stall Works - Guests sit with me for a few minutes, I sketch live. Super quick, people watch, laugh, and take home a funny memory.
Fun and Laughter Vibes - If you love looking funny, you’ll love this. It’s interactive, light-hearted, and breaks the ice—way better than boring photos.
My Playful Cartoon Style - I exaggerate unique features, keep it playful. I can draw individuals, couples, families, even pets. Everyone leaves with a smile and a sketch.
