Live wedding painter

I paint live at weddings and I am available for live wedding painting throughout Scotland. 

I would be very privileged to be a part of your day and paint a memory for you to cherish forever.

As a live wedding painter, I have painted live at weddings since 2020 and have had the privilege to paint all over the UK in lovely places, from castles to cowsheds.

Whether you would like a grand sized painting of your day to display or a more whimsical watercolour painting I have a live wedding painting to tell your story for years to come.

Before the day

I consider your wedding portrait as a commission that starts on your wedding day.

Although I am painting live at the wedding, my paintings are considered a portrait commission which begins at the wedding and later developed in my studio. We will have a chat about your chosen scene and couple pose for the painting.

Also it will be decided if any other people are to appear in the scene.

On the day

I will arrive early to the venue and start the painting preparation on the day before the wedding. The guests then have an idea of what to expect.

Your guests can watch the painting unfold throughout the day, however I am not in a rush to complete on the night of the wedding.

It requires patience and time to give you my best standards. 

 

If you are simply looking for just an artist to bring entertainment on your day, my smaller painting option is best.

These paintings are completed on the day and presented for the evening.

Post event

If your painting is larger, I have likely taken it away to my studio for refinements. My current processing time is 6 weeks to delivery to the couple.

 I paint in watercolour on archival paper or professional oil on canvas.

Can I chose my scene?

Final thoughts ? 

When considering a live artist for your event , please be aware that as the industry becomes more popular in 2024, there are new artists emerging every month. Each have their own style and medium and may even use digital art or templates.

Guest portraits: It is unrealistic for any live artist to hand draw 100 guests on one event to a reasonable standard. Although some may advertise this.

Please make sure you’re happy with your artists experience and style to suit your budget.

My signature style is loose and quirky and I am committed to quality over quantity in my illustrations
