Live Portrait Artist
Let your special Event, whether it is a Celebration, a Business Event or a Wedding, be absolutely unforgettable through capturing these Treasured Moments in Portraits.
These are not Caricatures that insult your guests, but portraits that captures their features in a gentle way, making your guests feel seen as they are.
A unique combination of Entertainment and deepening your Special Relationships.
Your Guests will always have a special memory of your event in their home, while on the event itself, everyone witnesses the Magic of how these portraits unfold.
Traditionally, like in the past; guests may pose to be drawn. Luckily they don't have to sit still for long, because Mapije is quite fast. (around 6 minutes)
Or Mobile, where Mapije will come to the guests, sitting or standing at their own table.
These Treasured moments can be captured on paper or on beer-mats.
Blank, or with your Brand Logo printed on it.
Mapije can draw 8 to 10 portraits in one hour.

Choose if you want your Treasured moments to be captured on paper, that your guests can frame at home. I roll them up for them, so it is easy to carry.
Or to let it be drawn on “Beer mats” that makes it super easy to keep the moment in a handbag. -
Let your guests feel so honored by your Brand while they never forget you.
By printing the Logo of your Brand on the bottom of the paper, or at the back of the beer-mats. -
With two or three chairs and a plug for my lamp (if in a dimmed room) I’ll set up a traditional corner with my easel, so that people come to me and sit down to pose. I can draw 8 to 10 portraits in one hour.
-
I’ll be mobile, walking around your event, coming towards the people, sit with them at the tables or stand next to them at the standing tables. I can draw 8 to 10 portraits in an hour.

Mapije showed off her skills at our wedding as an extra for the guests (and us, of course). And we can only say, we're so glad we chose you. Thank you so much! Everyone had a blast. Not only sitting there and being recreated, but also watching you work.

What a nice personality and what nice drawings were made. Mapije sits quietly making her beautiful drawings and makes people feel at ease. A wonderful addition to the retirement party where we invited Mapije to come and draw.

About the Artist
Mapije (Mapaiah) started drawing portraits the moment she could hold a pencil as a young child. During Holidays, she would ask her family to pose for her, so she could practice.
Then in her early twenties, she started drawing at Markets and not much later, people would hire her for their events. Weddings, Celebrations, Business Events, Fairs, she got to all different kind of places.
Meanwhile she has drawn portraits in different countries with different cultures from all over the world, bringing smiles on people’s faces, while never letting them forget that special moment.
Because Art makes people connect with each other in new ways.
