The Isle of Wight’s Live Caricature Artist

Live caricature artist drawing guests at a wedding, Isle of Wight

I’m Adam, and I’m based right here on the Island. I draw live caricatures at weddings, parties, corporate events and attractions across the Isle of Wight. If you’ve visited the Needles in summer, you may have seen me there drawing visitors.

Every caricature is drawn by hand, live, in around five minutes. Guests gather round, the laughter starts, and everyone goes home with their own A3 drawing.

Isle of Wight weddings
Whether you’re an Islander or one of the many couples who cross the Solent to marry here, I’d love to be part of your day. From country houses and seaside hotels to barns, marquees and village halls, caricatures keep guests entertained through the drinks reception and into the evening, and every drawing doubles as a wedding favour. Most couples book me for four hours, which covers 20–30 couples. Download my wedding brochure.

Planning from the mainland?
Marrying on the Island but living across the water? I know the venues, the ferries and the timings, and I’m happy to work around your plans by phone or email. One less thing to worry about.

Birthday and family parties
From 18ths to 100ths, plus anniversaries, retirements, christenings and family reunions. Caricatures bring every generation together. See my birthday parties page for ideas.

Corporate events and Christmas parties
Island businesses book me for Christmas parties, staff days, open days, launches and client events. It’s a brilliant icebreaker, and I can add your company name or logo to every drawing.

Hotels, holiday parks and attractions
I’ve drawn thousands of visitors at the Needles Landmark Attraction and onboard Wightlink ferries, so I know how to keep a busy queue happy. Caricatures are a great addition to entertainment programmes, themed weekends, family fun days and festivals. More about hotel and attraction entertainment.

Areas I cover
The whole Island, including Newport, Ryde, Cowes, East Cowes, Sandown, Shanklin, Ventnor, Bembridge, Seaview, Brading, Godshill, Yarmouth, Freshwater and Totland.
