Meet the Artist

Hi there! I’m an Indiana-based artist specializing in live wedding paintings and portraits. With over 18 years of art study and over 50 live wedding paintings completed in the past three years, I love to use my skills and passion for painting to create a unique heirloom to commemorate your wedding day and entertain your guests. 

Art of all types, but specifically color and the human face, has been my passion throughout the many years of my art career. I have cultivated a deep understanding of portraiture and color theory, and I use that understanding, plus your own style and wedding theme, to create a beautiful piece of art that is uniquely you. Live wedding paintings are a stunning collision of my years of expertise, your vision, and the unique energy of your wedding day. It is truly an irreplaceable and one-of-a-kind experience that your wedding guests can observe, and you get to take home to enjoy forever. Highly inspired by the Baroque, Impressionist, Post-Impressionist, and Fauvist movements, I love to experiment with color, maintaining a realistic and representational image while expressing emotion through color, texture, and contrast.  Every wedding painting is unique, designed around your aesthetic and personal taste. My paintings are tailored to suit your vision, emphasize your design elements, and fit beautifully in your home, while also intersecting with my artistic style and history. Above all, I love making art available and accessible for people in a personal way. How many times have you seen a painting finished in person and been able to witness the creative process in action? Live wedding paintings are a stunning and engaging way to bring a creative energy to your wedding that will captivate your guests and keep them talking for months after the event.  ​

If you wish you had booked me for your past wedding, I would love to bring new life to old memories with commissioned wedding portraits! These paintings are wonderful gifts to commemorate an anniversary, birthday, or other special occasion. All I need is a photo or two, and you can have an original piece of art depicting your favorite wedding photos. I can also work with you to add loved ones or elements from other photos to create an extra special piece.

 

I work independently with no backup artists to fill in when I am booked or unavailable. If you’re interested in booking me for your wedding as a live painter, your first step should be to confirm my availability for your date as soon as possible using the contact form below.

Wedding portraits and other commissions start at $395.

Live wedding paintings start at $2,195.
