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. My drawings contain emotions. Learn more about my artistic philosophy on The Artist and Live Caricature (Why My Portraits Stand Out / Motivation) pages.

Live Caricature for Your Event
*Probably the Cutest Portraits in London*
Find full booking details on the Live Caricature page.
When you book please keep in mind live caricature is a performance, so, there is no need for everybody to be drawn. Usually, not all the guest want a drawing. Some of your guests will enjoy watching.
How quick and for how long
The live caricature is a natural process and the maximum speed is acquired after the first few drawings. A minimum of two hours per event is recommended. Depending on the complexity, the quickest drawings can take less than 3! minutes (kids). The average is 10 drawings/hour.
Prices:
2 hours - £240
3 hours - £320
4 hours - £380
5 hours - £420
6 hours - £440
6 hours - £440
First two hours, every extra hour, only £70 per hour. Travel expenses can be added for outside London events.
Choose for your guests to feel flattered (not offended)
Unlike classical caricature, my portraits reveal a pleasant appearance, not the ugliness and grotesque. The constant feedback I receive is: "I'm more beautiful in your drawing than in reality."

Thank you all for supporting my artistic journey!
"Recognise any of this lot? Eltham Library is hosting a display of cartoons and caricatures by local Eltham artist Silu, who is originally from Romania. Silu (pictured below, with Miriam Storey of Eltham Library), does caricatures - like this one of our Eltham Arts committee - for events, so ask him to come along. It's unique. He'll even do a caricature of your pet if you send him a photo!"

Live Caricature @ National Gallery, London - 2018
When you doing art, you open your senses and you become very sensitive and vulnerable to any external factors. For this reason, doing your art in a studio is good as you are protected and you can focus all your energy in the right direction. Drawing exposed in a crowded public place means ignoring: the wind, the sun, the cold, the noise, your insecurities (you have no idea what's happening around, you can only see your model and your paper sometimes for hours when you are very busy) and doing it anyway. I look back pleased and humbled for assuming this exercise for a while, of going thru things who had the potential to make you feel uncomfortable during the artistic process.
