While visiting our retail location at the Louisville Zoo, I had the opportunity to draw at a huge event in Louisville with over 3000 attendees enjoying food, music and caricatures from 6 of us, including 2 of my artists from Goofy Faces.

Recently, we decided to relocate our retail stand at the Louisville Zoo to a nice spot with shade near the elephant exhibit. Here, manager Kelly is working on a family caricature on a warm summer day. If you plan to visit the Louisville Zoo this season, find us toward the back of the zoo near the elephants and buy a one-of-kind caricature or face painting!

Artists Bob and Robert spent the afternoon on the 4th of July drawing caricatures of guests at Steve and Yoshiko's wedding reception outdoor party. The location was on a private lake and guests enjoyed swimming, eating and having their caricatures drawn. The couple pictured here are John & Yoko. No kidding.

Recently Goofy Faces was hired to draw a birthday gift cartoon caricature for Cindy who turned 40. In addition to the gift caricature, Phil decided to hire Goofy Faces to come and draw guests live at the party. The party was a smash with the caricature artist working an extra hour in order to draw everyone who wanted their own goofy face!

Oakland County Parks & Recreation held its first ever kite-flying event called Kites Over Catalpa last weekend at Catalpa Oaks County Park in Southfield, MI. Kids and families had the opportunity to watch free kite-flying demos as well as make their own kites. Goofy Faces was there drawing attendees as well. Guests enjoyed having a caricature of their kids or themselves flying a kite!

Grad Parties 2010

Without a doubt, June is our busiest month at Goofy faces. Between wedding receptions, all-night high school parties and company picnics we average 3 to 5 events booked every weekend. The most popular events we do in June are graduation parties. Our caricature artists are a huge hit at high school grad parties whether they are held in a backyard or inside a banquet hall. Guests love watching the artist in action as much as they enjoy getting their own caricature drawn.
