Frequently Asked Questions
What is live wedding painting?
Live painting is when an artist paints at an event while the guests can watch. Often it is at a wedding, but it can be any event.
Will I get the painting at the end of the night?
No. I add final touches to the artwork in my studio to ensure you get the highest quality art that I can produce. Also, this means you can request edits to the work before I varnish it, ensuring you love it.
Can you put people who aren't there in the painting?

Yes! I can include folks who couldn't make it and deceased loved ones. All I need is a photograph of them.
Can you make a painting from a past event?
Yes! This is called a ‘studio commission. In many cases there will be more refined detail in a studio commission because there isn’t the pressure to work quickly. All I need is photographs of the event.
Will you frame our painting for us?
I can, yes. A frame can either add to or detract from a finished piece, so some folks prefer help. This service is an additional price not included in the event painting or studio commission quote.

Am I supposed to tip a live wedding painter?

This one is completely up to you! It is customary to tip vendors ~10%, but I do not expect it. A rave review is also a great way to say thanks.
How do you find the people to put in the picture?

You'll appoint a person to wrangle them up for me - usually a bridesmaid or family member.
When do I pay?
25% non-refundable to secure your date, then
75% one month before the event.
Can you add my dogs?
Yes! No problem. When you book, please send me a photo
of your fur babies so I can practice.
