EVENT!
Chris Rommel entertaining students at a High School.
Talented
caricaturists are rare. It takes years to build up the skill necessary to draw
accurate likenesses as well as being able to draw fast enough to keep up with
the crowd. With over ten years of experience in the business, Chris Rommel has
personally drawn thousands of caricatures at hundreds of events. His ability to skillfully capture a humorous
likeness of each individual has many
clients requesting Chris
to return to draw at their annual events!
Chris prefers to
draw onto 12" x 16" sheets of paper using a black marker and offers the option
of color by using an airbrush to produce vibrant looking caricatures. He
primarily draws 'front-view' caricatures, drawing the head down to about the
shoulders or waist of each customer (examples below). To view
many examples of
live caricatures drawn by Chris, please view his
portfolio.
For event
entertainment, the client is billed an hourly rate and the caricatures are free
for all of the guests who get drawn at the event. Chris charges $100 per
hour of service for "Black & White" caricature drawings, or $150 per hour of
service for "Color" caricature drawings (2 hour minimum for both). He is
capable of drawing at least 12 people per hour in Black & White, or at least 6
people per hour in Color. And since Chris travels to wherever your event's
location may be, he also charges a mileage fee of 50˘ per round-trip driving mile from
his home town of Eau Claire, Wisconsin. Mileage distance is estimated using
www.mapquest.com.
As an added option
to you, Chris can also provide "Drawing Protectors" (a clear, plastic wrap
combined with a sturdy sheet of cardboard backing) for each person to protect
and display their caricatures at an additional $25 per hour of service.
This option is strongly recommended if the drawings are to be handled by
children, or if rain/snow is a factor. You may even want to customize each
caricature so that your guests remember your event with a personalized message
or logo, printed in black ink on the top-front corner of every drawing.
Chris charges $100 for the "Customized Paper" option, which is a one time fee
regardless of the number of sheets printed. If you do some research, you
will discover that all of these rates are very reasonable and competitive.

After
your decision is made, you can
contact
Chris to book a caricaturist for your event. You may even want to consider
hiring more than just one caricaturist to ensure that everyone at the event gets
a caricature to take home. Chris works with many other talented
caricaturists in the area and will be glad to find you additional caricaturists,
or a replacement should he be unable to personally attend your event.
Certain times of the year are extremely busy, so the earlier you reserve a
caricaturist for your event, the better! Chris will promptly send you a
contract confirming all the necessary information such as dates, location and
fees. Once you sign and return the contract, your event is officially
booked. Chris will arrive early to your event's desired location so he can
meet with you, set up his drawing equipment and be ready to start on time.
Chris looks forward to the possibility of drawing at your next event,
making it a fun experience for all who attend.
