Live sketch art your guests take home.
Our artists draw each guest's rear view in charcoal (fully clothed) in about three minutes. It's the line everyone talks about, and every guest leaves with a frameable original.

The Original.
Krandel Lee Newton · founder
Krandel started sketching on a street corner in Dallas's Historic West End in 1987. Since then the team has drawn hundreds of thousands of guests around the world.
How it works
Three minutes. One original. Zero awkwardness.
Guests line up
The artists bring all their own equipment and set up wherever suits your event. The line becomes part of the party.
About three minutes each
Each guest strikes a pose and an artist draws their rear view in charcoal: fully clothed, and never at anyone's expense.
They take it home
Every guest leaves with their own original sketch: a party favor people actually frame.
We never make a joke of any guest. Cheeky, yes. Mean, never.
Straight from the guests
Their sketches, their words.
