Chris Rommel entertaining students at a High School.

Talented caricaturists are rare. It takes years to build up the skill necessary to draw accurate likenesses as well as being able to draw fast enough to keep up with the crowd. With over ten years of experience in the business, Chris Rommel has personally drawn thousands of caricatures at hundreds of events. His ability to skillfully capture a humorous likeness of each individual has many clients requesting Chris to return to draw at their annual events! 

Chris prefers to draw onto 12" x 16" sheets of paper using a black marker and offers the option of color by using an airbrush to produce vibrant looking caricatures. He primarily draws 'front-view' caricatures, drawing the head down to about the shoulders or waist of each customer (examples below). To view many examples of live caricatures drawn by Chris, please view his portfolio.

For event entertainment, the client is billed an hourly rate and the caricatures are free for all of the guests who get drawn at the event. Chris charges $100 per hour of service for "Black & White" caricature drawings, or $150 per hour of service for "Color" caricature drawings (2 hour minimum for both).  He is capable of drawing at least 12 people per hour in Black & White, or at least 6 people per hour in Color. And since Chris travels to wherever your event's location may be, he also charges a mileage fee of 50¢ per round-trip driving mile from his home town of Eau Claire, Wisconsin.  Mileage distance is estimated using www.mapquest.com.

As an added option to you, Chris can also provide "Drawing Protectors" (a clear, plastic wrap combined with a sturdy sheet of cardboard backing) for each person to protect and display their caricatures at an additional $25 per hour of service. This option is strongly recommended if the drawings are to be handled by children, or if rain/snow is a factor. You may even want to customize each caricature so that your guests remember your event with a personalized message or logo, printed in black ink on the top-front corner of every drawing. Chris charges $100 for the "Customized Paper" option, which is a one time fee regardless of the number of sheets printed. If you do some research, you will discover that all of these rates are very reasonable and competitive. Here are some examples and a summary for your convenience...

After your decision is made, you can contact Chris to book a caricaturist for your event. You may even want to consider hiring more than just one caricaturist to ensure that everyone at the event gets a caricature to take home. Chris works with many other talented caricaturists in the area and will be glad to find you additional caricaturists, or a replacement should he be unable to personally attend your event. Below are some of the caricaturists that Chris Rommel hires for events. Please visit the Exaggerated Entertainment website www.exaggeratedentertainment.com for more information about these caricaturists.
