Kidspartiesnyc.net – Party planning tip of the week
It is better to request RSVP’s when planning your party so you have a better idea how many guests can actually attend. That way you can plan everything better and budget yourself accordingly for food, snacks, drinks and even the entertainment.
Kidspartiesnyc.net – ENTERTAINER OF THE WEEK – Caricaturist artist Alison Gelbman
Alison Gelbman started drawing in high school. Over the years she became an art teacher. She also drew portraits from photographs but found it to be lonely work.
Alison was inspired to become a caricaturist when she on vacation to California. While visiting San Francisco’s Fisherman Wharf she stopped to get a picture of herself from a caricaturist. From that moment on she practiced making quick sketches of people. Soon after that she landed her first job as a caricaturist for Levittown’s 50th anniversary where she drew three caricatures of different people as prizes for a contest sponsored by the town.
“I found portraits to be lonely, but caricatures were more fun because it was more immediate and more connected to people,” Alison says.
Alison does facepainting as well. She has two websites www.caricatureexpress.com and www.facepaintingexpress.blogspot.com. Alison does adult parties as well as children’s parties. She has performed for birthday parties from ages 1-80. She can also be reached at 516-579-4706
