If you're looking for something to make your event (in my case our wedding) extra memorable, absolutely consider getting the Hit and Run artist from Artistic Talent Group. I'd worked... read more with ATG through our company multiple times and attendees always loved it and I just KNEW it was something I wanted for my wedding. I splurged on having an artist for 5 hours (Ceremony through reception) and it was WORTH IT. I requested specific caricatures to be caught of me and my husband which Ted, the artist (PS. If you can get Ted, you want Ted!), did wonderfully; our guests also LOVED it. I saw a few times when he handed the finished caricature to unsuspecting family members and their expression was always priceless. This is also a wonderful "bonus" takeaway/favor for a wedding. If you're looking for fun, unique and out of the box, look no further!
We had 2 artists at our event on Sanibel. One regular caricature and one animalture- they were both fabulous! They were the hit of the party. The artists added so... read more much personality to each picture that my guests said they were going to frame them.

Originally I went on the bash website to try and find a cariacturist for my 31st birthday party, attempting to find a cheaper but good artist. A couple years ago,... read more my mom had a birthday party and upon further research we realized it was the artistic talent group that was hired. We loved their work then so we decided to reach out and have them for my party. To our surprise, it was the same exact guy that did her party was doing mine (Ted). I can’t speak on the other artists within this organization but TED?! Is the bomb dot com. His work is immaculate and his vibe is great also. I suggest that if you’re decided on using Artistic Talent Group, try and request Ted. Everyone loved their pictures and he was an AMAZING addition to my party. You truly get what you pay for, the only issue I had was that 3 hours was NO WHERE near long enough. Lol. 10/10 would DEFINITELY recommend.
I hired a body painter/face painter to do special effects makeup. This was a photoshoot for very high-profile social media influencers. Not only was the artist beyond talented,... read more but I was also impressed with his promptness and understanding of the tight production schedule. The finished designs were fantastic. My client cannot stop raving about this and how efficient the booking procedure was from start to finish. Highly recommend!

We're Dedicated to Entertainment
ATG was founded by Keelan and Barbara Parham. Keelen graduated from the Savannah College of Art and Design and previously worked as a caricature artist at Disney World where he embraced the opportunity to use his art skills to entertain theme park guests and create lasting memories for them!
The couple’s entrepreneurial spirit, paired with their creative passion, led them to open a small caricature kiosk at the Pointe Orlando shopping complex in 1997. Hundreds of thousands of caricatures later, the Parhams now own and operate 12 retail locations across Walt Disney World Resort property and opened their first theme park location in Animal Kingdom in 1999.
Two decades later they opened their first brick and mortar storefront, The Art Corner by Artistis Talent Group at Disney Springs in early 2019.
The Parhams’ vision, right from the beginning, was to bring artists out of their studios and into the spotlight where people could be entertained by their talents. Artistic Talent Group has now introduced the talents of hundreds of artists to special events across the United States. Providing everything from classic caricatures to graphic recording, they represent more than 60 unique artists.
ATG is a proud member of the International Live Events Association (ILEA), Wedding Venue Map, Visit Orlando, National Association of Catering and Events (NACE). Keelan is a member of the National Cartoonist’s Society (NCS), and the International Society of Caricature Artists (ISCA). The Parhams have also served on the boards of both the ILEA (where Barbara was past president) and ISCA (where Keelan was past president) organizations. Keelan is the author of the book, “Let’s Toon Caricatures” which has inspired many budding artists to enter the world of caricature.
