 Live Event Illustration

 
 


Live illustration brings art into the moment. Guests can watch as their portraits take shape in real time, making the experience both entertaining and personal. Each illustration becomes a unique, hand-drawn keepsake to take home — a lasting reminder of a special occasion.

 

1. Quick Portraits
A6 format · 3–5 min per person
Small, expressive portraits that capture each guest’s likeness in a simple and spontaneous way. Ideal for events with a larger number of guests, offering a personal keepsake in just a few minutes.
Estimated time: 3–5 minutes per person · 5–6 minutes per couple

2. Detailed Portraits

A5 format · 5-7 min per person
A larger format with more room for detail and expression. These portraits allow me to spend a little more time capturing each guest’s features and personality, resulting in a more developed illustration.
Estimated time: 5–7 minutes per person · 6–8 minutes per couple

3. Full-Body Fashion Illustration

A5 Full-body format · 6–8 minutes per person
Fashion-inspired illustrations that capture each guest’s outfit, silhouette, and personal style. With an emphasis on clothing, movement, and distinctive details, these portraits bring an editorial feel to the live illustration experience.

Ideal for fashion events, brand activations, and celebrations where personal style is part of the occasion.
Estimated time: 6–8 minutes per person · 8–10 minutes per couple

For who?

I offer live portrait illustration for brand activations, in-store events, product launches, corporate gatherings, festivals, weddings, and private celebrations. Whether creating portraits that reflect a brand’s identity or capturing the atmosphere of a personal celebration, each drawing adds a thoughtful, creative touch to the event.

Working primarily with watercolour, I create expressive portraits on site, capturing each person’s individuality through a spontaneous and considered approach. For brand events, illustrations can be personalised with custom-branded paper, brand colours, and visual elements that complement your visual identity.
