ADD-ONS
SLIPCOVERS
Keep caricatures and fashion sketches safe from spills, rain, and fingerprints with our clear, sealable slipcovers! Each sleeve features reinforced edges to prevent rips and a self-adhesive strip to keep artwork secure and pristine until it's ready to be framed and proudly displayed.
For all services, we provide courtesy rubber bands free of charge so guests can roll up their drawings for easy transport.
+$20 per hour per artist
BRANDED PAPER: B&W
+$20 per hour per artist
Add a logo, text, or image in black and white that you provide to every drawing for extra customization! We place your item(s) on the top inch of the page to ensure it’s visible. Uploading your file is easy - just respond to your Booking Details email when prompted, and it’s automatically added to our system!
Each artist has individually-preferred paper stock to maintain the highest quality, so outside printing is not allowed.

+$30 per hour per artist
SPOTCOLOR - +1 min/face
STANDARD/FASHION ONLY - Free!
Add a pop of color to your drawings with our Spotcolor add-on! Choose one color - red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, pink, or brown - to highlight clothing, accessories, or details in each drawing. Spotcolor is only available with Standard Caricatures or Fashion Sketch services because it adds 1 minute per face - 15 faces/hr with Standard Caricatures and 12 guests/hr with Fashion.
Because we focus on serving events efficiently, we do not offer full-color.
COMMON TRAVEL FEES
Though Caricatures by Marietta is based in Kansas City, Missouri, our artists have drawn in all 48 contiguous U.S. states! Beyond the Kansas City Metro area and surrounding communities, we most frequently serve Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa, northern Oklahoma, and northeast Arkansas. To help with planning, here are our current travel fee guidelines:
* Please note: All travel fees are per artist - because our artists work multiple events per day, they cannot always carpool. Events more than 6 hours from Kansas City, MO may require plane tickets and day rates. Travel fees may change due to factors such as fuel costs and market conditions. While we typically review travel rates about once per year, adjustments may occur sooner if necessary. Fees listed here are estimates and are not guaranteed until quoted.

This ensures your artist(s) aren't falling asleep behind the wheel!
