Easy to book

Portrait Amsterdam is a live hand-drawn portrait station for conferences, brand activations, weddings, meetups and private events across Amsterdam, the Netherlands and Europe.

How it works

Guests sit down.

One at a time, or in small groups. No experience needed — just a face and a minute to spare.

I draw them live.

In front of everyone. Fast, expressive, and always a little bit theatrical. People gather and watch.

They leave with something unforgettable.

An original hand-drawn portrait. Not a print, not a filter — theirs to keep, forever.

Works beautifully for
Conference The icebreaker no one expected.
Wedding Guests remember it forever. Literally.
Birthday A gift that doubles as entertainment.
Meetup Turn a networking event into a real memory.
Brand Activation Custom portraits. Instant social content.
Festival A crowd magnet that draws its own crowd.
Private Event Intimate or large — same energy.

The Artist

Hi, I'm
Shacyz.

I create live portrait experiences in Amsterdam, across the Netherlands and throughout Europe.

I draw directly on paper, glass, walls and unexpected surfaces — always in front of people, and always in real time.

After 18 years working in illustration, branding and visual storytelling, live drawing became the thing I enjoy most.

This is not just a portrait.
It's a performance.
