Artist For Hire - Live Event Painter - Artists

A great gift idea for the “person who has everything!"

Imagine... an artist at her easel, painting the beautiful day and surroundings... creating a lasting impression on a colorful canvas— and capturing your occasion as it takes place!

The artist sets up her easel at least an hour before the ceremony, and starts painting the background. Your guests get a glimpse of the beginning of your painting, as they arrive.

Prior to your big day, the artist will fully discuss your wishes for your painting; reviews your plans and logistics. She can also meet with you at the site. And she will travel anywhere to paint for you.

Your guests enjoy watching, and being part of a beautiful painting!

Think of it as an upscale and sophisticated form of entertainment along with a lovely commemoration of your event.

Fast-drying, non-toxic acrylic paints on stretched-canvas are used, and your painting is ready to take home that day!

She went to the couple’s home, who purchased the painting and graciously brought it to them framed (after adding them to the painting), and then took photos of them with the painting in their home.
