Live wedding paintings are one of my favorite things to do! They make such sweet gifts for the happy couple. A "live" painting means that I will paint what I see during the ceremony or reception (your choice), and I will do everything possible to have the painting completed by the end of the evening. I arrive to the location a few hours before the wedding begins in order to set up my area and begin painting in the background. This gives the guests something to see as they enter. I paint through the event and then paint from photographs after everyone has moved from the area.
