PHOTO PAINTING & PET PORTRAITS
Live Wedding Painting, and other live event painting, is an increasingly popular way to capture a special moment in a unique way.
For those wanting a more interactive live experience, Collaborative Painting is another unique way to bring art to your event.

When circumstances don't allow painting at a live event, a great alternative is to create a painting from a photo!
Photos of weddings, family members, pets and homes are just some of the subjects that lend themselves to Photo Portraits.
