Do the staff have working with children checks?
Yes, they do. As well as the equivalent police checks in all the states across Australia.
Does my child need to bring anything to the lessons?
Yes, just a folder to start a portfolio of all their drawings & paintings. We supply all the art materials, paper & reference books.
Can you do colour work?
We specialise in Colour from photos in the studio. At parties we do mainly black & white because it is quicker. If you prefer we can also do colour for smaller functions.
Do you work outside of Sydney?
Yes. We work all over Australia all the time. We often attend special events & functions interstate & overseas. It is cheaper to have us fly to Melbourne than to hire Cartoonists there.

How long does it take to draw a Caricature at a function?
Approximately 2 - 3 minutes per person for black & white. Colour takes 4 - 5 minutes. For a party with 80-100 guests we suggest the 4 hour package with 2 Cartoonists and the option to stay longer if required. For more than 100 guests we suggest 4 - 5 hours with 4 Cartoonists working the room. We roll the drawings up & present them to the guests as a gift.
Do you do large functions?

Do you do small functions?
Yes. The smaller the function (like an intimate boardroom meeting) the more detail & colour we can do. We can also do individual pictures & groups together, etc.

We wear our corporate uniform at all functions. We also have casual T-Shirts for children's parties. We can also dress in themed costumes if requested.
