Silhouettist Worldwide
For a truly unique entertainment experience, it's hard to surpass our silhouette artist! Charles' life is entirely devoted to silhouettes. In about 90 seconds, Charles and his scissors will create an almost perfect image of you. He uses black paper to cut out your silhouette, which is then professionally mounted onto card, transforming the artwork into a beautifully crafted cameo portrait—a wonderful keepsake.
This is an extraordinary display of hand-eye coordination, and Charles' incredible skills are perfect for many events including trade shows, team building events, gala and company dinners, charity balls, and weddings—a setting that beautifully complements this art form with its array of hats and family profiles to compare.
As added extras, you may have your cards custom printed with your company name and logo, or the date and venue of your wedding—whatever you’d like! Cards come in standard sizes: 6” x 4” or 7”x 5”, which means they can easily be placed into a photo frame—which we can also supply. He can also offer pre-cut silhouettes of key people at your event and an A3 size montage of all the silhouettes that were cut at your event.
Obsessed with drawing from an early age, Charles is now widely regarded as the finest silhouette cutter practicing in the country today. He is constantly seeking new ideas and applications for his art.
Charles was featured in the BBC2 series "Tales of Tools" (in the episode about scissors), and during his travels, he has been fortunate to meet and cut silhouettes of many notable figures of our time including (among many others) The Queen, at her 80th birthday celebrations, and President Clinton. Today, he has a busy schedule bringing his art to an extraordinary variety of events all over the UK and abroad.
