Artists or Portraits or... - The DIS Discussion Forums

Where in the World can I find someone who can do an elegant picture, portrait, caricature, etc of my almost 3yo? I think these make the most wonderful keepsakes!

Thank you!

I would imagine all of the resorts but I know for certain the Contemporary, Polysesian, Grand Floridian, and Wilderness Lodge had them last time we were there. Caricatures, that is.

You can have caricatures done at the resorts. I also saw then being done in Dinoland at AK and it was actually cheaper than the resorts. If you would like to save money, bring a cardboard to store your picture between for when you pack up and go home.

We've had beautiful pastel portraits (not cariacatures) done of our kids twice in the Magic Kingdom. I'm not sure the artist who did them is still there - Annie - but she was wonderful. I didn't see her last time, and bet she retired.

The artists are set up across from the funnel cake place, as you head away from the castle toward Liberty Square and Frontierland.

I love my portraits - I have them hanging up in the house, and color photocopied them just in case anything happened to the originals. I also made a copy for my parents - shrunk them to a 5x7 size.

My daughter was 3 when we did it - the artist had her sit on my lap and got her to pose.

I would highly recommend it.
