  • Ariel was wonderful. Our event was a huge success and people couldn't stop talking about him and how talented he is. Even some of our hyper kids sat completely still while waiting for their turn to be drawn and then sitting while being drawn. It was absolutely wonderful. Thank you for your time Ariel. He was very accommodating to all of our requests. -- Dana C, Melvindale, MI, 6/5/2010

  • Ariel was punctual, professional, polite, talented and a very fun addition to our wedding! We had 185 people at our reception, with a photo booth and two caricaturist, the line for the Ariel and our second caricaturist was incrediably popular, and everyone loved the pictures that they were able to get. Ariel was also very accomidating, and even did a caricature of my bride and I before the wedding so we could display an example for all of our guest to see. No one seems to remember our center pieces, or the flowers, or the hundreds of other little details we had, but everyone remembers Ariel and keeps bugging me for his contact information! -- Morgan H, Novi, MI, 10/8/2011

  • Ariel did a spectacular job and far exceeded my expectations with his artistic abilities. He stayed in constant contact before the show, quickly followed up on any questions I had, arrived early to the venue, worked quickly, and was very friendly with my guests. His work is AMAZING and my guests were VERY impressed, he was certainly one of the high talking points of the evening and added greatly to the event. I would HIGHLY recommend him to a friend, family member, or client, and in fact will surely have him at future events. Thank you Ariel, great job! -- Stuart W, Detroit, MI, 12/31/2011

He was very friendly and sociable, but the best part was what an AMAZING artist he is. What a true talent! Several people have already asked me for his contact information. Thank you, Ariel for doing such a great job. -- Dena M, Clarkston, MI, 1/28/2012
