Live Drawing for Events

Sketches that happen in real time, with real people.
Each line is a memory in the making.

Perfoming live in private views, seminars, meetings and PR events, ceremonies, performances, panels and presentations.

Types of Services

Live Portraits

Faces that tell a story.
Come as you are — I’ll draw the rest.

Give your guests a souvenir they can cherish as a memento of your special day.

I sketch your guests in real time — relaxed, expressive, and uniquely them. Each portrait takes around 5–10 minutes and is done with paints or pencil on paper. Guests take their portrait home as a personal keepsake.

Live Drawing · Illustrated Reportage

Guests become muses, moments turn into sketches.
Live drawing adds quiet magic to any event.

I draw what unfolds — the room, the people, the energy. Think of it as a visual diary of your event. These illustrations can be done throughout the event or focused on specific moments (ceremony, performance, atmosphere).

Live drawing can capture the ambiance of an event and illustrate the guests through colors and lines, entertaining your guests during your event and give them the chance to take a piece of the moment home with them.

How It Works · Step by Step

  • Get in touch

    Send me a message with the date, location, and type of event. I’ll get back to you with availability and a few quick questions.

  • Let’s plan

    We’ll go over timing, what you'd like drawn (portraits, scenes, or both), and any specific details — I adapt to intimate gatherings, busy venues, or quiet corners.

  • I show up, I draw

    On the day of the event, I bring all materials and set up a small, mobile sketching station — or move around the space as needed.

  • Your guests get a gift

    For portraits: each person receives their drawing to keep.

    For scenes: you’ll receive the original drawings after the event, and digital copies if you wish.
