Live digital caricature has steadily grown in popularity as a tool for audience engagement. Why? Because it’s fun and people like to share their fun with friends and colleagues on social media.

“Jon joined us for our twin sons’ virtual birthday party with 8 of their friends, and he drew each kid in about an hour while the kids watched and played games. Jon was excellent! He worked well with the kids and really captured their personalities in his sketches. The kids really enjoyed the process and their caricatures, which they can now use on their Zoom calls!
Digital caricatures are a great way to get people together during this time. Caricatures would also be a great way to commemorate a class of school kids as an end-of-year event or other gathering.”

“Jon was such a great addition to our event last night! Dare I say the highlight of the event. Super easy to work with and easy setup! I will definitely be using Jon for future events! Such a hit!”
—Jennifer F. • Oracle, Event Coordinator
“This was an awesome experience! Jon Casey, our artist, was great. He noticed that we had an extra little brother that wasn’t signed up and was able to fit him in. He did three within 30 mins! He went above and beyond, and I really appreciated it! Thank you for organizing! Would recommend this activity again!!”
—Melissa B.
“I was able to book Jon within 3 days of an opening party event. The booking process was quick and seamless.
He kept our group of small business owners, former tech, bloggers, vloggers, and instagram famous entertained all evening with the TV displaying his live work in progress.
His work is exemplary and one of a kind. We are definitely booking him again!”
—Monica Y. • Brisbane, CA
“Jon is an ah-mazinggg artist!! Hands down one of the best works I’ve seen, and have had the pleasure of working with for a year now.
I was tasked by my company to brainstorm sentimental gifts for our employees, and so I thought caricatures with our company logo would be a great idea–and it was! I’ve researched numerous artists on the web, and fell upon Jon’s work and loved his style. Jon has drawn many of our employees, and each time they received their caricature, they were floored, thankful and joyful to receive such a memorable gift. It’s clear that this is Jon’s passion and he’s talented at what he does.
In addition, he’s professional, dependable and always tries his best to accommodate your needs and deadlines. I highly recommend Jon!”
—Krista B. • Quincy, MA
“I first discovered Jon at a corporate event for a company I used to work for. He drew me and my coworkers and we all kept our drawings on our desks.
When my wedding rolled around, I didn’t think twice about booking Jon to entertain and draw for my guests. People LOVED him!
He arrived on time and set up quickly. We had him outside due to space constraints inside our venue but he was a great sport about it nevertheless. He stayed over his allotted time to ensure everyone got their drawings and even told me he would draw my husband and I after the fact so that we could spend more time with our guests.
Jon is great and a true professional! I would definitely recommend him for future events! THANKS JON!”
—Casey H. • Pleasanton, CA
I hired Jon for our company event to help drive foot traffic to our booth and he was outstanding! There were other digital artists in other booths but the queue for Jon kept growing and didn’t stop.”
—Anj B. • South San Francisco, CA
“I wanted to provide feedback on our caricaturist, Jon Casey. He did an amazing job and was so nice to the boys! We hope we can use them again for future events. Thanks for organizing!”
—Jocelyn A.
“I met Jon and hired him 5 years for a Cisco Tradeshow and he was the hit of the entire convention. The line waiting to be drawn wrapped around my booth from beginning to end of the show each day and was a huge draw to drive attendance to the Cisco Booth.
I HIGHLY recommend Jon for any event (corporate or personal) that you want to add something fun and exciting to – he is a stellar artist and compliment to any function!!”

Frequently Asked Questions.
What types of events do you do?
Although we specialize in trade shows and corporate events, Cartoon.guru artists are available for weddings, birthday parties, picnics and more! You can see lots of examples of our artwork from recent jobs and the diversity of events at our Event Downloads.
Do you work with companies for more than a single event?
Yes! We have teamed up with companies like Avatier and Symantec to be at multiple shows throughout the year, and have been a part of large trade show events like HDI and Oracle OpenWorld for many years recurring. We find that the guests will often look for us to update their drawing each year. Some companies, such as Google, book us each year for their end of the year Holiday party, often a year in advance! We love to build relationships with companies.
How many artists will be at my event?
You can book from one to seven digital caricature artists for your event. We can even fly in artists to join our team if you need additional artists! At most events we recommend two artists, but your budget and goals are the most important considerations when working with us. Booking a single artist only for an event will add to the entertainment and fun of the party.
Will Jon Casey be the artist that draws for my event?
Jon Casey is the owner and operator of Cartoon.guru. All emails and bookings will go through him, and most of the time he will be at your event! We work with a team of great artists that all reach high standards for quality of artwork and professionalism. When Jon Casey is already otherwise booked or unavailable, he will work with you to place an artist for your event. You can be assured that any artist booked through Cartoon.guru will be an excellent addition to your event.
What types of events do you do?
We are available for all types of events from small gatherings to large corporate events.
How far in advance do you typically book an event?
Typically events book up 4-12 weeks in advance. Some events book yearly in January for the following end of year celebrations. Sometimes we can find an artist for your event with just a couple of days notice. When we book your event we take a 50% deposit to hold your date, so the sooner you are ready to book the more likely we will have an artist available for you. The holidays are typically our busiest time of the year, and we often book up the weekend dates in December many months in advance. Whenever you are ready to book we will work with you to find an artist who is available.
How many people can you draw per hour?
Each artist can draw up to 10 full color faces per hour.
How many hours do people typically book an artist for an event?
There is a two hour minimum for all events, and we often stay for the full duration of a party, wedding, or trade show. Although two hours might be a good amount of time for your smaller event, for weddings we recommend 3-5 hours. We also offer day rates depending on the number of hours booked. Send us the details of your event (link this) to get a free quote, and Jon Casey will work with you to decide how many artists and hours would work best for your particular event.
Can you include a theme in the drawings?
Yes.
Do you offer artwork for gifts or commissions from photos?
Yes! We can draw commissioned artwork for you from photos over email. We often draw dozens or more people for corporate awards or gifts. We can create unique artwork to celebrate a retirement, for wedding invitations, and more! Check out some examples of commissions we have done here.
