Ezgi is such a talented artist! Her illustrations perfectly captured the atmosphere of our event, and it was a joy to work with her. I’m really looking forward to collaborating again in the future.-Diana

The live illustrations by Ezgi Tanrıverdi were a fantastic addition to our event. Guests loved seeing themselves in the drawings, and many shared the artwork on social media, which helped promote our brand even more. The illustrations created a memorable, personal touch and made the event truly special. We would highly recommend her-Maria

Make Your Brand Activation, Event or Launch Unforgettable

Live illustration offers something rare: a personal touch that makes every guest feel special.

Watching a portrait unfold in real time creates excitement and conversation, turning the drawing itself into part of the event’s energy. Guests don’t just leave with a keepsake, they leave with the feeling of being noticed and celebrated. For organizers, it’s a simple way to add warmth, creativity, and memorability to any occasion. That mix of interaction, art, and atmosphere is what makes illustration stand out as an experience worth adding to your event.

Each portrait is thoughtfully designed to capture the mood and personality of your guests, creating a unique, stylish experience without overcomplicating the process.Q: When should I book your live illustration service?

A: Yes! For brand activations, I can prepare the illustration paper with your logo or brand name.

How It Works?

I create live illustrations directly at your event using fast-drying markers, so guests can take their portraits home immediately in protective sleeves. Each guest is drawn using a quick photo reference, allowing them to enjoy the celebration without waiting.I set up at a table and chair provided by the venue, ideally in a well-lit area with access to a power outlet for my light. Outdoor setups are also possible if the weather allows.Illustrations are created in the order photos are taken, with an average of 6–8 portraits per hour.

Limitations:✦ One drawing per guest, either individually or as a duo/pair.✦ Guests must be present at the event; I do not draw from personal photos.✦ Time-based service: very large celebrations may not allow every guest to be drawn.✦ Stylized poses are used to capture each guest’s energy and personality.
