PAINTiNG LOVE, LIVE.

BRIDE TO BE?

My process…

  1. During your ceremony, I take a video and grab my “money shot” from a couple of different frames.

  2. I doodle all over your canvas with a message to commemorate your special day.

  3. During your reception, I paint and chat it up with your guests. Everyone loves watching and taking photos of the painting as it comes to life.

  4. Finally, I grab you and your new spouse to do the big reveal.

  5. You sail away on your honeymoon, I take the painting home that night for studio touch-ups, and mail it back to you within two weeks.

“Having Presley as a part of this day was magical. It was an added element of entertainment that our guests raved about, and just look at that finished product. This is so special to us and we are so thrilled that we have this piece of art forever.”
— Rachel Thelen (bride pictured)

client requests…

    Reference and greenery background used from the ceremony… they couldn’t get an arch in real life so the bride asked for an arch to be added into the background.

  • The cornwalls

    Custom background request to be placed in front of the beach, using a reference from the ceremony where the couple mixed tequila and margarita mix.

  • bella & nick

    Reference and background taken from the ceremony. The background was altered in color to fit the overall presentation of the painting, carpet and wall paper colors swapped entirely.

I have been painting professionally for a little over 5 years now, but started painting weddings in August of 2024. I did it as a favor/gift for a client and immediately fell in love with the process. For me, live painting is more than buying a piece of art. Live painting is the art of performance under pressure. At my events, I take the painting from nothing to a custom masterpiece before the night is over. I thrive off of the pressure of your entire room of guests watching me as they enjoy your special night. The reactions never fail to make me smile when they walk past in awe of the transformation.

And no, I did not go to art school. I just really like to paint.
