Live Event Illustration
AN INCREDIBLY THOUGHTFUL GUEST EXPERIENCE
I provide live illustrations for brand events, product launches, corporate events, and more in Ireland and beyond. I sketch and paint your guests by hand for an incredibly unique live experience! Quick fashion illustrations drawn between 6-10 minutes on personalised branded paper gives your guests the best of both worlds: fun entertainment and a keepsake they will treasure forever.
If you wish to have me at your event please get in touch to discuss hello@rachelleahystudio.com.
How does it work?
I create live fashion illustrations using ink, markers and watercolour paints in my signature bright & whimsical style on A5 paper. It's also possible to brand the paper with your company logo, date, location, etc.
How many illustrations will be created?
I work at a rate of approximately 1 sketch every 6 minutes for an individual, or 8 - 10 minutes for couples depending on style and detail.
How it works?
All I require is a table and chair! I'll arrive 1 hour prior to your guests to get set up and warm up! I'll bring my signage so people will understand what exactly I'm doing, and how they can get involved. Your guests will be happy to learn they won't be asked to stand in front of me while I paint them! Instead, I ask them to pose for a photo, which I will use for reference while they continue to enjoy the event and I paint. I pack each illustration in a protective sleeve with a hard backing board for protection and display it on the table as I go, creating a little pop up gallery.
What style are they painted?
My quick illustrations are painted in my signature stylised and whimsy way, which is always flattering and complimentary of guests. I quickly capture the key details of outfits and hairstyles, wowing your guests when they instantly recognise themselves and fellow attendees in the pop up gallery. I also offer black and white illustrations, which may suit your event theme better, and also means a higher output of illustrations as they are quicker to create.
What if I have a large event and want all guests to get an illustration?
I wish I had the capacity to paint everyone, unfortunately its just not possible :( Once I reach my capacity, I start a waiting list and continue to take guest photos. I will work my hands off to make it into my waiting list, but if there are still outstanding illustrations, I can offer a a special discount (at your discretion) that guests can use against the purchase of a custom fashion illustration on my store after the event.
