The Process
How we will collaborate
Guests are invited to enjoy the live painting experience with physical distance, per the CDC Covid-19 recommendations.

Decide on the Scene
What memory do you want to capture from your wedding? The 'reveal'? The first dance? Cutting the cake? Walking in as Mr. & Mrs.? We will have a phone consultation to make sure your decision is understood. I begin painting 1 hour prior to the event to block in the scene, and paint live for you and your guests for a total of 5 hours.
Watch Me Work
People love watching the painting come to life and I offer light entertainment for your guests. I enjoy conversation, as they catch glimpses of the painting taking shape.

Refine the Details
Live painting completed on-site and on the day of the wedding. Some detail in the Bride & Groom, other guests in impressionistic and painterly style. Heightened details will be added when I take it back to my studio as more definition is included in the Wedding Couple's posture, emotions, and features.
Your
One-of-a-Kind Treasure
A painting takes on a life of its own, capturing the essence of an event and people in a way that a camera lens cannot. Enjoy your painting for years to come, painted on archival canvas and painted with oils.

"An original piece of art captures life creatively."
