All In The Details

A painting is a beautiful way to immortalize your wedding day! Here are the details: I use watercolor or oil paint to create a timeless masterpiece of the bride and groom. I'll arrive about three hours before the ceremony to set up and start sketching. I paint for around 4-8 hours at the venue and then take the piece to my studio, where I refine it over the course of 20-50 hours. As the final touches require time to dry and varnishing, the painting will be completed in about 3-4 months. (Watercolor paintings are usually finished on site and framed). A non-refundable deposit of 25% is required to secure your date, with the remaining balance due one month before the event. I am happy to travel and a travel fee will apply. Feel free to email or call me to schedule an appointment to discuss your wedding day and your vision for the artwork! I can't wait to capture your special day in a unique and creative way.
