live drawn illustration

by professional cartoonist,

John Whitworth.

Live illustration tells YOUR Story!

“This innovative technique not only captivates your audience but also helps them retain information more effectively.”

 

Meet John

Hi! I’m John Whitworth, professional cartoonist, illustrator, and Live artist.

I draw LIVE illustrations for conference speakers, corporate meetings, and seminars all across this great nation.

Over the years, I’ve drawn for some of the world’s biggest brands, celebrity speakers, Major Universities, and Government Agencies.

Like (Shameless name drop) Simon Sinek, Richard Branson, Magic Johnson, Harvard University, ALL of the SEC Universities, and even the U.S. Space Force!

Fun Fact - John has experience with over 300 live drawing events!

 

How it Works

  • During your event, I listen to the speaker and capture key Themes, Highlights, and Key Takeaways

  • I draw to create (in real-time) a Visual Infographic. (that’s a fancy way of saying I draw cartoons and illustrate your content in real-time.)

  • Your audience will stay tuned, and YOU get value of the graphics even after your event. Click here to see the many post-event uses for your illustrations.

  • Sometimes I draw with giant markers on a big mural & Sometimes I draw digitally, displayed on your big screens. I can draw in-person, or remote/virtual!

Here’s What People are Saying

“John draws really really fast, and comes up with really clever and funny ideas so fast!

“John really has a focus on the Performance aspect and his IMPROV skills are amazing!”

“This really added a level of interest to rather dry and boring content.”

“I love the humor and style! The finished product is so fun. Unlike any other artist we’ve worked with!”

No matter what curve balls are thrown at him, he always makes things work and keeps his cool”

Fun Fact - John once drew at the NY GIANTS/ NY JETS Football Stadium!

CHECK OUT THESE EXAMPLES

The goal is to tell your story, in real-time, using large illustrations the the audience can enjoy watching come to life.

You get the advantage of adding a unique twist to your event, capture and engage your audience during and after the event.

The Secret Sauce

People are always amazed at how I am able to grasp their industry specific jargon and context.

They always ask me, “How did you know so much about our industry?”

I have a corporate background! I’ve always been an artist, but before making Cartoons my full time career I’ve actually had corporate positions in several industries. My broad knowledge and experience really gives me an advantage. I also spend time researching each company I do work for, to understand their culture, and their specific business.

Did you know? - John has a corporate background, and now uses his experience (combined with research) to help him draw for many industries and businesses.

JohN is Performance Focused

(A Unique Twist)

  • I draw on a Large Scale…so the audience can see it. (what’s the point if they can’t see it)

  • More pictures, less words. I’ve noticed over the years, people want to see me draw pictures, not just take detailed notes. They want to see me draw! I capture the key themes and takeaways, but focus on large, engaging illustrations.

  • I draw fast, and finish when you finish. The goal is to draw, while your speaker is presenting or the group is in session— and complete the illustration when the speaker is finished!

Humor

  • I always “read the room” and incorporate a fun level of humor into the illustrations.

  • It’s a great way to add some fun to any event.

  • The real advantage is that I can tell a big story, or a big concept with a simple comic or cartoon.

  • (think of political cartoons, and how much impact they can have!)

The advantage

It makes the finished product memorable, and fun to read through. I love it when audiences take pictures of particular cartoons after they events.
