Feedback

  • Alisa was terrific! She is highly professional, arriving at the event even before we did. She had a great attitude, worked nonstop, was very fast and left a lot of smiles on people's faces as they each walked away, eagerly showing off their souvenir drawing to all of their friends. She was a wonderful addition to our anniversary party and we would definitely hire her again and would unreservedly recommend her to others. -- Henry C, Syosset, NY, 11/19/2011

  • I highly recommend Alisa for both her talent and, just as important, for being so nice and a pleasure to have at our granddaughters 1st birthday party. We had 30 adults and 11 children (ages less than a year to 12 years)and she "caught" just the right expression on every caricature. -- Joe R, Englewood Cliffs, NJ, 11/28/2009
  • Alisa did an amazing job and we would highly recommend her!! She is VERY talented and the guests were impressed. She really enjoys what she does and it shows through her work and great attitude. We booked Alisa for the entire length of the party (4 hours) and despite us telling her to take a break to eat, she wanted to continue to work straight through. She is fast too! Alisa is very dedicated and everyone was extrememly happy and brought home a great memory. Thank you Alisa!! -- Stacey P, Yorktown Hts, NY, 10/25/2009

We were fortunate to hire her for my daughter's first birthday and our guests could not stop thanking us for their cool caricatures. We would greatly recommend her for any event! -- Mike B, Lodi, NJ, 2/20/2011
  • Alisa was wonderful! She was on time, extremely professional, accommodating to everyone and very talented. Everyone loved their caricature. As our DJ did not show and the replacement had to set up, Alisa helped save the day with her artwork. I would recommend her to everyone. Thank you Alisa. -- Terrie R, North Cape May, NJ, 8/20/2011

  • I had Alisa at my daughter's 3rd birthday party. We had her at our party for four hours. She was worth every minute. My friends and family were very satisfied with Alisa's work. She was fast and everyone was able to go home with a party favor. Our friends even inquired about having her at their children's upcoming birthday parties. We had a blast. The children also did not mind sitting for 3 minutes to allow her to draw them. -- Julie T, New York City, NY, 4/23/2011
