What is Live Event Illustration
Live event illustration is exactly what it sounds like: I sketch your guests live, during your event - quickly, personally, and with a creative twist. With just a few strokes and a keen eye for detail, I capture the unique style and personality of each guest in real time
Types of events
- Office / holiday parties
- Weddings
- instore events
- Brand & PR activations
- Conferences
- and more
Illustration Style
Each illustration takes around 8-10 minutes and can be done on paper with watercolor, pencils and markers or digitally (using an iPad), depending on the style of the event. We will also discuss whether I create portraits or full-body sketches of your guests.
How I work events with many guests
If the number of guests is very high, I take photos and complete the remaining sketches afterward. These will be delivered in the week following the event.
Number of guests I can illustrate
I can sketch up to 10 people per hour. One illustration takes around 8–10 minutes, depending on the event size and how quickly I need to work. This means approx. 30 guests for a half-day booking and approx. 60 guests for a full-day booking.
How your brand can be integrated
The illustrations gain a unique touch by incorporating the brand’s colors or hero product directly into the sketches. This can be arranged in advance, with custom-designed paper printed beforehand, so the artwork is placed on branded paper, saving valuable time during the event.
Equipment & material
Everything needed for a successfull live illustration event will be organized from my side. I bring all the material and equipment with me and also include some decoration for the table to give the workspace a nice look and feel.
