live artist for special events

Turn any event into an unforgettable experience with a live portrait booth - offering guests personalized, one-of-a-kind, hand-drawn artwork that captures the moment and creates lasting memories.

what is a blind contour portrait?

Blind contour portraits are drawn with one continuous line, without looking at the paper, focusing entirely on the subject.

The process results in whimsical, abstract, and expressive line work that celebrates imperfection and spontaneity, capturing the essence of the moment (and the person) in a truly one-of-a-kind way.

What is it like to have your blind contour portrait drawn?

  • “I felt witnessed and appreciated. It’s intimate in the sense that there's vulnerability between the artist and the subject. There’s fun in it too, because neither person knows how it's going to turn out. It’s a few minutes journey that we go on together, and the destination is a surprise.”

    - David L.

  • “Allison Kunath SEES you. While steadily holding your gaze she traces your angles, contours, shapes, and, light. It’s a joy to be seen in this way and a delight to discover what she has created when she finally lifts her pen. I treasure my Allison Kunath blind contour portraits more than any photograph or painting that has been made of me.”

    - Alua A.

  • "My time sitting with Allison was serene, it was at once satisfying to see the image come together from her hands, and offered me a chance to breathe and connect with myself, surrendering and allowing myself to be perceived."

    - Maceo K.
