This service works best for intimate gatherings, VIP sections, or smaller guest lists where you want to offer a truly special, long-lasting gift that guests can take home and use daily. ### Why Mugs Make the Best Souvenirs Most party favors get thrown away after a week. A hand-drawn caricature mug is different. It sits on a desk or kitchen shelf, acting as a permanent reminder of the fun they had at your event. Whether it is a wedding, a milestone birthday, or a corporate VIP party, these sketches turn a simple coffee break into a conversation starter. ### The Live Experience I set up a dedicated station at your venue. Guests sit with me for a few minutes while I sketch their personality traits onto a standard 300ml white ceramic mug. It is not just about the final product; the process itself draws a crowd. Other guests enjoy watching the live transformation, making it a great icebreaker for events where people might not know each other well. ### Practical Details * **Material:** I use specialized permanent markers designed for ceramic surfaces. While the ink is durable, I recommend hand washing these mugs to keep the artwork sharp for years. * **Logistics:** I bring all the necessary mugs and ink supplies. All I need from your side is a small, well-lit space (about 6x6 feet) with a table and two chairs. * **Timing:** Since these are handcrafted individually, we should plan the duration carefully if you have a large guest list. I am happy to discuss whether this is better suited as a main attraction or a special perk for a select group. If you want to see how this fits into your specific venue layout in Bengaluru or elsewhere, just reach out. Let’s create some 'nageya rekhegalinda nenapina chitragalu' (pictures of memories from lines of laughter) for your next celebration. ## About Shivaraj My favourite part of any event is watching a guest’s face light up when they realize their mug isn't a factory-made giveaway, but a sketch I drew in minutes. It turns a simple coffee break into a funny story they will tell for years. I don’t just draw faces; I make sure every guest walks away with a smile and a keepsake that lasts.
