Athesia Benjamin -Portrait Artist

I started honing my portrait drawing ability as a 6th grader at #3 school in Rochester NY.  My classmates paid me $5 to draw portraits of them, to give to their mom's for Mother's Day.  Over 30 years later, and my skills (and my rates ; ) have only grown!  In addition to being an artist, I am also an art professor at Monroe Community College.


I can create a likeness of anyone within 15 minutes.  Despite the amazing technological advancements of our time, watching a portrait come to life under the skillful hand of a gifted artist will always be a thrilling experience to watch. Bring the unforgettable gift of live portrait drawing to your guests at your next event!
