Hello, I am WEN — LIVE EVENT SKETCH ARTIST

Your guests become favourite people on paper: I create memories that will bring a smile long after your event. My live portraits create a relaxed atmosphere. Your guests watch with excitement as a picture emerges from just a few lines. The reveal often brings laughter and surprise. While many moments fade, your guests take home a personal, original keepsake.

I studied at the Düsseldorf Art Academy and was awarded the title of master student. Since then, I have worked as an independent artist and lecturer.
