Zero hassle: Mark brings the gear. Just show him where to set up his easel and chairs.

Quick drawings: About 5 minutes a person (roughly 10 an hour), so guests get a fun sketch without standing in a long line.

Good likenesses: Fun cartoon portraits that capture real smiles, not mean or overly exaggerated features.

Safe for the ride home: Every 11x14 sketch goes straight into a clear protective bag so it makes it to the fridge or a frame in one piece.

A small table: A card table or any small banquet table works fine for markers, paper, and supplies.

3 to 4 chairs: One for me, and two or three for guests so couples, friends, or kids can sit together.

Good lighting: Either plenty of light naturally or an outlet nearby so I can plug in a work lamp.

Cover (if outdoors): A tent, patio roof, or shaded spot out of direct sun, wind, and rain.
