Live Wedding Paintings
What is a live Wedding Painting?
A live wedding painting is a unique keepsake to commemorate your special day! The painting will capture the location of the wedding and most importantly the couple during a special moment (reading of vows, the first kiss, walking down the aisle holding hands, etc). During the reception the artist will be at work on your painting, that way guests can take a peek and the process of your special painting coming to life can be a part of the memorables moments of the day.
What locations do you travel to?
I am based in the DFW metroplex and can travel to any venue within that location. I can do venues that venture outside of that location or are in another state, but there will be an additional travel fees to cover mileage or airfare, hotel, and a rental car as needed.
What type of paint do you use?
I use professional quality oil paints on cotton canvas.
What happens after the wedding?
As the beautiful day comes to an end I will show you the painting thus far and then pack it up and take it back home with me so I can put some final touches. That way the couple has one less thing they have to worry about on their wedding night as they are preparing to leave for their honeymoon. By the time they get back from the honeymoon the painting should be finished then arrangements can be made for the painting to be dropped off.
How much time is needed to complete the painting? Where and when will you paint?
What works best is if the artist can arrive to the venue a couple hours before the ceremony so they can paint in the venue. Once the ceremony starts the artist will snap a couple pictures of the bride and groom and then use these photos to paint from for the rest of the evening. The artist can then relocate to the reception (or wherever the bride and groom want) and paint for the rest of the reception.
What happens after the wedding?
After a memorable, fun-filled wedding, I take the painting back with me. It’s one less thing for you to worry about transporting after the wedding and it allows me to make finishing touches on the painting. I will also add a protective varnish before arranging pickup or mailing your painting to you. Then you just have to decide where to display it in your home!
