Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

I like to arrive about an hour before the event, start warming up with a cup of Joe and draw the bartender. I am usually the first to arrive and always the last to leave the event. I will not stop drawing till every person in my line is sketched. I usually just need a small table, three chairs and maybe a plug for a light.


Are you happy to perform outside?

Absolutely.


Do the clients have a say in what you play or is it a set repertoire list only?

If they have a theme to include in the drawings? I will always include it in my work.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

Fun, hilarious, spontaneous, fast, amazing, and accurate.
