We celebrated Volunteers' Week with a barbecue in appreciation of all the help that Volunteers give. Pen arrived in good time, in order that he could have a briefing on our event. There was heavy rain but Pen carried on regardless! Those who were intially unsure of being willing subjects, were soon joining the queue as they saw the pleasing results. Ben was able to put everyone at ease and his style of art captured features so well. The caricatures will be a talking point for a long time to come. Thank You Pen.
Ben was great at communicating before the event and when he turned up was friendly and punctual. He interacted well with all the guests and had lots of requests to draw people which he dealt with very well. Our guests loved the portraits and it was really worth it to have him entertain them during the drinks. Thank you very much.
My daughters hen night with 23 girls must have been quite daughting for Ben, he didn’t show it in the slightest, quite the opposite, he has a great sense of humour making each girl feel relaxed whilst he drew drawing after drawing, we had only booked for two hours however he stayed longer and made sure he hadn’t missed anyone. His drawings were quick and amazing, the girls loved them. We honestly had the best night and wouldn’t hesitate recommending Ben to anyone.
From start to finish this booking was both easy and excellent! Pen Jones was just what we wanted! We decided on a 2 hour ‘mingle’ style booking for our wedding which went down perfect with our guests! We’d be happy to be a reference for both. Thank you for helping make our day so special!
Ben came to our family member's 21st birthday party, where we had guests from the age of 6 months to late 80s, and he drew them all incredibly and with great humour. The drawings are the perfect souvenir and add a fun twist of entertainment to the party. Highly recommend!!
We are so pleased we booked Ben for our wedding, as he went down a treat with everyone. From the moment I met him on the day I knew he was going to be a hit.... As he introduced himself as "my cousin", which led to me panicking that I didn't know someone in my own family! If you are looking for entertainment for your wedding do not hesitate to book Ben, as not only are guests being entertained they get a souvenir to remember your day! Thank you Ben.
I'd commissioned Ben for art and music work before and so when I randomly selected a friend in a Secret Santa, I knew that a caricature would be great as a present. I selected a photo of my friend with his wife and their daughter and sent it to Ben.
Ben took that photo and drew a wonderful caricature of the trio. He framed it and posted it to me within days of my order.
The family loved the finished caricature. It is different to all of the other pictures of the three together.
I highly recommend Ben for his caricatures, he is reliable, punctual and delivers a great finished piece of art. If you want a present that is different to the norm and will resonate with the receiver, Ben is the person to go to
Ben was absolutely fantastic. He was very quick with his drawing so managed to get through a decent number of people. His drawings were impressive and very funny. Thank you Ben for making our event very memorable! First class service throughout the process.
Absolutely Great Guy..... a true gent..... and fantastic with our guests..... was above and beyond our expectations.... we would highly recommend ..... thank you Ben and we hope to hire you in the future too.... Thanks Colin & Tracey
Ben was fantastic. We had people queuing to be drawn by him. He managed to capture each persons personality accurately but in a fun way. We wouldn't hesitate in booking Ben again for any future functions. Brilliant.
I met Ben Jones at an art event in Wolverhampton and was impressed with his caricature of myself. I then contacted him to do my family tree showing 8 generations of the family. I was extremely grateful to Ben for his adaptation of my family tree. My family members were drawn with soo much accuracy but with a bit of humour and smiles. The only limit was the size of the paper. The family tree is now hung pride and place in my living room. Forever thankful to Ben.
Ben was awesome and we couldn't asked for a nicer person to come and demonstrate their talents in the way Ben did! He was professional for the entire time he was with us and everyone and I mean everyone had a picture drawn at some point through the night! BOOK THIS MAN HE IS AWESOME!!!
I wrote a book on buying a house and asked Ben whether he would take on illustrating it - a tough task given the somewhat dry subject. Two brainstorming sessions and several sketches later, Ben came up with this amazing story concept around insects and other crawly creatures representing all sorts of 'stakeholders'. The illustrations that followed are amazing and so funny that I had to laugh out loud when I first saw them. Ben could not have captured the brief any better, his drawings have an amazing lifelike quality while being super creative. I highly recommend him.
We were really pleased with Ben. Not only did he look well presented, but he was punctual, polite and drew amazingly accurate caricatures of the 12 year old children at my daughter's party. He kept them entertained the whole time and was very approachable. Prior to the event, he was in contact with me a couple of times to fine tune the details. We’re glad we found him.
This guy was fantastic he was on time got round a lot did lots of pictures and kept all our guests entertained was well worth the money. Thank you Ben for adding that extra something to our wedding day... Mr & Mrs Carrington
The visuals produced by Ben are fantastic and a great way of evaluating/ capturing projects. [...] The works is very informative clear and neat – this makes us want to use for displays and at board meetings. A very visual way of engaging with the public/audience and Ben the Artist is amazing with all age groups and very able to converse with all backgrounds. I would most definitely be using Ben in future projects and celebration events. Artwork is always very inspiring and smart.
Ben was fantastic, he arrived on time and was very friendly and made everyone feel at ease on the day and of course the pictures were fantastic. I would definately recommend him to anyone in the furture.
