1. Booking
To book your live painting, fill out an inquiry form. Once you have submitted your inquiry, I will reach out within 1-3 days to let you know my availability. I will then follow up with a questionnaire to gather the details and put together a proposal for you. This will include an invoice and contract. A 25% deposit is required to reserve your date.
2. Composition Preparation
Let me know your ideas! Scene, background, angle, guests? Do you want a horizontal or vertical canvas? Or if you aren't sure, I can piece it together on the spot.
3. Logistics
Before the big day, I will need you to send photos of your guests with names and relationships. This helps me know who to look for to add in the painting. I contact your coordinator or venue to determine a spot to set up and an arrival time.
4. Event Day
I arrive 2 hours early to set up and begin painting the background. For larger canvases and venues with a lot of detail, I may begin the painting before the event. I take photos during the first dance ( or before the ceremony for "At the Altar"). I also seek out your guests to capture photos of them to use as reference during the night. At the end of the night I bring the painting home to complete it in the studio!
