I draw so folks can see my work over my shoulder, laughs for everyone, everyone is entertained. I have drawn hundreds of thousands of people with a warm and friendly manner that makes everyone feel comfortable. I have worked in air shows, Amusement Parks, shopping malls, festivals, Faires and parties. I have also worked for Cleveland Mayor Frank Jackson, The Cleveland Clinic, The Cleveland Indians, H.J. Kirby Vacuum Corp., NASA Glenn Research Center, The National Association of Letter Carriers Progressive Insurance, Westfield Insurance and the Cleveland Cavaliers. I have been hired to do private parties for Lebron James. I went through a special screening and interviewing process (and passed) to determine eligibility to work at LBJ's children's' birthday parties. Day Care Centers such as KinderCare Learning Centers and The Goddard School Systems, Inc. .to name just a few....

My life size stand ups of Drew Carey and Mimi were featured on TV during the 2001-2002 Cleveland Cavaliers basketball games. My work has been promoted in a TV commercial in 2003.

Diana is working for the Cleveland Indian's at every Sunday home game until October. Come downtown to Progressive Field and watch her draw!

As the one of a very few (just a handfull) Actual Spirit Artist in the USA, Diana draws based on intuition to capture the essence of an individual. She is currently pursuing Certification in Face Reading.

Testimonials

Diana I just wanted to tell you, You did a great job at our wedding. You were very accepting to the guests and tried to get everybody taken care of. I will recommend your business to my friends and family. Thanks for doing such a great job Diana!

Diana Hadley was contracted as a caricature artist for MarshBerry's Holiday Party in December 2008. She arrived in a timely manner and provided excellent artwork to those whose caricatures she was able to draw within the three hours for which she was contracted. She was very accommodating and easy to work with. I recommend Ms. Hadley for similar artistic engagements.
Vicki Pate, Fun Committee

Just a short note of appreciation for your help in making this year's Harvey High School Prom one of the most successful dances that we have ever had. The students and guests thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to have their caricatures done. You truly amaze people in your ability to capture the personality of each person in your portraits. We would highly recommend you to anyone and look forward to having you at another event. Thank you for your efforts. Sincerely, Gloria K. and Alicia F.

"Diana Hadley did a fine job with the caricatures and despite the fact that I didn't have time myself to sit down and enjoy having her draw for me, our guests seemed to really enjoy her work. We would definitely look to your company for future events." - Michelle Chokan

"Diana was great, she interacted very well with our clientele and everyone enjoyed their drawings." - Melissa Fuentes, Steel Yard Tavern

F.A.Q.'S:

Q: Why are your prices so reasonable?
A: Even though my skill level is high and I years of experience, I want to bring the keepsakes and joy to everyone. Especially in this economy, this is not only for rich people. I want my love of my art be affordable to the Big Corporations as well as the single parents. I am an Ordained Minister and this is very important and meaningful to me. Seeing the look on a child's and parent's face makes it all worthwhile. I LOVE my job!!!!
Q: Why do you have a 2 hour minimum?
A: I ask for the 2 hour minimum because I am frequently asked to travel out of town or out of state for events. My time is negotiable for small events within the Cleveland/Cuyahoga County area.
