Testimonials & Customer Stories
- Holiday Party -
Caricatures were drawn for a large office party. The client was extremely pleased with the results.
"KUDOS to The Nose! The artists that came to our holiday party were wonderful. Everyone had a fantastic time - you should have seen the lines! I want to say that of all our artists that evening, Kourosh was the most popular, and his drawings kept people in stitches.
He was not only courteous, talented, and hard working, but he took the time to get to everyone in his line and even stayed a few minutes beyond the party (at his request) to finish up those he had given a number to earlier on since he chose to do details instead of just upper body.
He was truly a wonder, and you are so lucky to have him on your team! Please let Kourosh know that he was an exceptional person to work with, and his work was so well received. (I had people stepping out of the main line to form one for him personally - it was pretty impressive.) He also wore his artist's hat, and really looked the part. Some of the stuff he came up with for people was hilarious - and his facials were spot on! He is a true artist, and we thoroughly enjoyed his talents that evening. Thank you."

- University of the South -
For 20+ years, we have been invited back to draw caricatures of the students at the University of the South in Sawanee, TN.
"Please accept the thanks of the Office of Student Activities for your recent visit to our campus. It was a real pleasure to have you return to Sewanee: The University of the South for yet another year.
Our established track record with you, dating back annually to 1992 is quite remarkable. You are one of the constants in our yearly calendar. Our students appreciate your engaging presence and perception for picking up on aspects of their personality or hobbies that you are then able to include in their picture.
From the office perspective, we are very pleased with how easy the process is to get on your calendar and bring you into campus. I wish all of our performers were as easy to get along with and take care of during the course of your visit.
You are one of the most gracious spirits that I have encountered professionally. Thank you for sharing your talents and observations with our students for so many years! We look forward to your return. In an entertainment world full of options and inherent risks, the decision to bring you back to campus year after year is an easy one to make."

- Ironman 2020 Competition Gift -
"I am so thrilled I came upon Kourosh, a talented caricature artist in the Atlanta area. After searching high and low — online and social media I finally found what I was looking for when I discovered the Creative Caricatures Instagram site.
Kourosh is different from most of the caricature artists you will find today — most draw digitally on a tablet. While this can create a near perfect depiction of a person it is almost too perfect — it lacks the authenticity of a true hand drawn work of art. I wanted a hand drawn caricature of my son, Ben, capturing the memory of him participating in his first ever Ironman event.
Kourosh was a delight to work with from beginning to end. He so deeply cared that I was happy with his work. His attention was unbelievable. It was almost like he wanted to come to know Ben so he could create the perfect image. I will use Kourosh again when I am looking for that special touch! I highly recommend Kourosh and Creative Caricatures for capturing that special memory and keepsake! Thank you so much Kourosh!!"

"Kourosh and Amanda - Thank you so much for creating the perfect gift for Cindy’s retirement. She just loved it. (She even had a tear in her eye). She was also thrilled at the fact she looked so beautiful in the picture – nice touch Kourosh!
All in all, the gift went very well, and many folks thought it was awesome. It served as a great discussion piece. It was a pleasure working with you both, and thank you for your patience. You are very talented Kourosh, and I admired that quality through the process."
