A History to Pass Down
An Expression of Your Wedding
Wedding
01. Live Painting
Delicately capture the story and atmosphere of the wedding, be it a painting of the ceremony, reception or first dance — weaving in details from the floral colors to the ceremony backdrop and supporting elements that bring it all together.
Inclusive of travel with 5-6 hours of on-site painting, the final canvas will be hand-delivered by the end of the night, finished with gloss varnish and a protective sleeve. The painting will depict the bride and groom together in the setting of your choice of a 24x36 or a 30x40 canvas.
Watercolor
02. Live
Guest Painting
Jennie now offers a team of watercolor painting artists for events. This consists of 3-5 hour sessions of event guest portrait painting on 5x7 watercolor cards. Live watercolor guest portraits are the trend to keep and for a good reason!
This is one of the most unique ways to make your guests feel included, and beautifully entertained.
Event
03. Live Painting
For fundraisers, anniversary parties, corporate events, and even vow renewals — make a statement at your soiree with the engaging presence of a live event painter. This consists of 4-5 hours of on-site painting with the final piece — your choice of an 18x24 or 24x36 canvas — completed by the day’s end.
As others have shared, it is a way to ensure that your guests are amazed and entertained. It has even been said that this quiet addition becomes the “talk” of the event.

& Portraits
From a painting of your favorite wedding photo created in one of our artist’s studios, to pet portraits, abstract art, and landscapes, the subject and canvas size are yours to choose.
Given that a majority of our attention is directed to live event painting, there is limited availability. That being said, we appreciate the stories and artistry within these pieces, often connecting with couples who, even 30 years after their wedding, seek to have it re-told with brush strokes.

Elevating the artistry and guest experience of your event.
We work with couples, planners — and frequently — the parents or friends who intend to surprise the couple with a live artist on their wedding day.
Our team unequivocally merges artistry with professionalism, providing solace in the world of wedding planning. One of the best parts, though, are the interactions between guests and the painter — watching with anticipation as the painting develops. To see the final work completed by the end of the evening is just another layer of wonder added to your celebration.
A BEAUTIFUL UNION OF
Free Flowing Artistry
& a Cutting Edge Experience
Our artistic style counters today's urgent and hasty culture; finding inspiration and origin with the old Masters of Impressionism. While applied with a quick pace, each stroke is intentionally placed on the canvas. The creative flow follows with time standing seemingly still as we paint the expression of what we see and experience firsthand.
As opposed to a lifelike rendering, there is room for interpretation between every brush stroke. It’s evocative, not exacting, with passion felt in the colors, textures, and reflections.
Just as a song can recall vivid memories, so too can the painting draw the observer back into meaningful emotions and moments.
