About Cartoonist Silu

Cartoonist Silu is an experienced and talented caricature artist that creates quick, cute, and amazing portaits for people at events! Silu graduated from "Ion Mincu" University studying Architecture and Urbanism and his background is in interior architecture and design. A few years ago, inspired by London's multiculturality, Silu started to do live caricature portraits and never looked back.

The portraits: Individual portraits on A4 size paper is the best choice for the clarity of details and speed, and a higher speed results in more people having a portrait done. The portraits, ready to be framed, are delivered to your guests for free protected in transparent folders. It's possible to draw multiple portraits, couples or a maximum of three portraits (occasionally) on the same sheet, as well, but compositions are more complex and can be slightly slower. For every 2 hours, a short, 10 min break may be needed. This is to be sure the quality of the portraits is high.

Quality of the line
Made with permanent markers (deep black), the artworks are defined by a clear, powerful line which generates a high black & white contrast. Unlike the drawings done in pencils or other media, are resistant (doesn't blend) and have a clean, professional look with no under layers. You can also brand the portraits with a logo of yoru company or the event that is taking place.

How many drawings should I expect?
The live caricature is a natural process and the maximum speed is acquired after the first few drawings. Depending on the complexity, the quickest drawings can take less than 3 minutes. The average is 10 drawings/hour. The number of drawings per hour is related to the size of the gaps between drawings and to the complexity of the models.

Tips for a successful live caricature event

  1. Decent lighting, indoors, in the drawing area. A place close to a window or a source of light is best. 2) Two chairs normal size (three if I have to draw couples). 3) A small table is helpful for the tools and to present some drawings for your guests to know what to expect. 4) Shaded area, outdoor. Sunlight can be very powerful and its reflection on paper makes the drawing process very challenging.

Motivation in the words of Silu
"I enjoy diversity. For this reason, drawing portraits is such a joyful experience! It makes me aware of beauty in the world and I choose to reveal it my way. Diversity is beautiful. Diversity is about how nature expresses its freedom. Be aware - these are not simple caricatures. These drawings contain emotions! Through my art, I try to reveal human beauty in a playful way. My drawings generate moments of joy and incorporate the emotion and energy of the moment. I'm, also, happy to support charities and fundraising events when I have the chance."

FAQs

How long does it take to make a drawing?

Speed ​​drawing artists are known for their speed, allowing them to create a striking caricature within minutes. The precise time depends on the complexity of the drawing and the type of medium used. In general, a speed draftsman can make about 10 to 15 drawings per hour.

What does the quick draftsman need?

The quick draftsman brings his own supplies to make the drawings. The only thing required at the location is a place where he can sit. If there are any additional wishes, this will always be indicated in a timely manner.

What is the process of a booking?

Our job is to completely unburden you so that you end up having a successful party. This is how you achieve a successful party:

  1. Look at our website and choose the entertainment you like. Difficult to choose? Contact our team and we will help you find the right option
  2. You will receive a proposal, does it not quite fit your needs then let us know and we will try to adjust to suit. You can indicate that you wish to book and we arrange the contracts to be signed by the artist or direct management and yourself.
  3. We will make an agreement and invoice. Payment Terms are 50% of the Artists Fees plus Booking Fees to confirm the act. The balance will be required 30 days before the event date. If your event is 30 days or less from the booking time then the full amount will be expected.
  4. Artwork or any online promotions cannot be actioned until the deposit is paid in full.
  5. All Artwork and Publications must be proofread prior to release.
  6. We ensure all the entertainment is booked correctly and we organise the whole process until the event date.
  7. We're all set. We are going to make it a successful occasion!
How is the technology arranged ?

Each artist has a technical rider that is shared in advance to ensure requirements can be met. This states exactly what the famous artist needs to perform. Most acts bring their own other than those in our Famous Section.

Is the artist available?

It is important to carefully check whether the well-known artist is available on the indicated date. We will check the availability for you and will send you a proposal based on this. If we indicate that the artist is available, the option will also be fixed. Otherwise it will be clearly indicated.

What is a rider?

A rider is a document in which the wishes and requirements of an artist are recorded. Well-known artists in particular often have a number of wishes, such as their own dressing room, a certain number of bottles of drinks, a meal and so on. In addition to this 'hospitality rider', artists often also have a 'technical rider'. This rider states, for example, which speakers, inputs and monitors are desired. In many cases, the artist's sound engineer takes this himself. He can also plug into your available sound set. On the technical rider you can see whether your Production Kit & Audio meets the artist's requirements. If you don't understand this. No problem, we are happy to help you with this!

How is the price determined?

The desired duration of the performance
Travel time and travel costs
Any lighting and/or sound technology required
Any waiting and preparation time
The group size
Familiarity of the act
Booking Fees

Ultimately, every party is unique. Therefore, we are happy to discuss your requirements in advance and can make an appropriate tailor-made proposal.

How can I cancel?

Do you want to cancel unexpectedly? Please contact us, we will then try to resolve it as best we can for both you and the entertainment you have booked. In consultation, we usually come to the best solution.
This is our standard cancellation policy:
The deposit is payable upon issue of contract and non-returnable unless the Artist cancels the performance. The Promoter / Client agrees to pay 100% of the total fee agreed if the performance is cancelled within 120 days of signing the contract.

How does payment take place?

After signing the contract directly with the Artists or their Management, you will be sent an invoice with the payment details included payable by bank transfer to our UK partner Jealous Entertainment Ltd and / or directly from the Artist or direct Management.

What if last-minute if it turns out the act cannot be supplied?

We always have a backup option available. If the entertainment you have booked is unable to perform due to force majeure, we will do everything we can to make it happen. Because we have such a large network, we always succeed.

Why hire acts ?

One of the primary reasons for hiring acts is to provide entertainment and enhance the overall experience of an event. Acts like musicians, comedians, magicians, dancers, and circus performers can captivate and engage the audience, creating a memorable and enjoyable atmosphere.
