Dave Smith

I have been a professional caricature artist for over for 30 years. I have experience in all types events. Trade Shows Corporate Events Bar-Mitzvahs Grand Openings Parties Weddings You name the event, I’ve drawn at it!

My many years of experience are assurance that you are booking a seasoned professional. Client service is as important as the artwork provided.

I spent the first 25 years in the theme park industry. Working for the largest provider of artistic retail concessions in the United States where I was a senior manager. I operated, consulted, hired and trained artist for Busch Gardens, Sea World, Six Flags, Cedar Fair and Paramount Parks across the US.

I can personalize, label, logo, or theme the sketch paper for an added touch. Not only am I providing entertainment for your guest, but a gift as well!

Voted “1992 Caricaturist Artist of the Year” (The very first “Golden Nosey” Winner) and a “MASTER MEMBER” of the “National Caricaturist Network” ?

Making your event a huge success is my #1 priority!

• Dave was not only professional and talented, he also interacted extremely well with our group- which is what we were hoping for! Hiring him is the best entertainment value we have ever chosen. We easily recognized our guests from their caricatures! Dave handled all the guests around him watching and asking questions in a humorous manner, while still drawing! We did have a special request about our portrait, which looks awesome and is already framed. He got our guests to mingle, and provided some preprinted paper we had discussed in advance that gave his work an "extra added" touch. I highly recommend Dave for anyone considering a crowning highlight for their event!!! -- Linda C, Spring Hill, FL, 10/29/2011
• Dave was a hit at our graduation party. At one point there were about 40 teenagers (and more parents) surrounding him waiting to get their portraits done. I would definitely recommend him to everyone!!!! -- Larissa P, St Petersburg, FL, 6/6/2009

• Dave Smith was such a pleasure to have at our daughter's sweet 16. He arrived early and was willing to work with us to stay later. The party was such a hit with him there. He is very professional, and THE most talented caricaturartist I have ever seen. Everyone at the party was thrilled with their new master piece. I heard many people say they were going to frame their's. It was a special added touch to have Dave at our party. This is something we will never forget. I give Dave the highest recommendation possible. -- Mary A, Bradenton, FL, 5/15/2009
