Fantastic!

Wow! What a talented guy Phil is. He worked non stop for 3 hours capturing the quirky features of all our guests and creating the most funny caricatures. Everyone he drew got to take their amusing portraits home as a keepsake. We would highly recomend him for any party, event or wedding. Definately 5 stars and worth every penny. M & L.
