Harlie & Jadon Live Wedding Painting

Harlie & Jadon

I was hired as a SURPRISE live wedding painter by the bride’s family (yes, you can totally do that!). They had no idea until shortly before the ceremony when the bride’s sister revealed that they had hired me to paint a moment from their wedding day & asked what she’d like me to capture. The…

Okie Family Market Mural

I had the pleasure of painting a homestead/farm mural for the owners of Okie Family Market, a locally sourced grocery store that opened in 2023. This family store has a couple of kids, & wanted the room at the back of their store to cater to kids so parents could shop with peace of mind…

Rachel & John

Rachel and John are the sweetest couple and their wedding was unforgettable. Everything was beautiful but the best part was this “Just Married” joy. The love is so palpable!

Haley & Kyle

Haley & Kyle knew they wanted a live wedding painting scene featuring just the two of them on a relatively good size canvas. Their personalities & relationship was/is down to earth & full of love.

Breelyn & Kenten

It was such a joy to paint Breelyn and Kenten’s beautiful wedding at the Discovery Land Ranch. Their guests were amazing and the ceremony was absolutely gorgeous.

Brooke & Mitchell

This couple is amazing and their wedding was an absolute dream to be a part of. I hope you enjoy snippets of the wedding, process, & final painting! I spent countless studio hours on this one, even pulled an all nighter. I love making each piece the best I can to exceed expectations. These are…

Ciara & Louis III

The Bride & Groom took 5 minutes or so with me to pose for the “first dance” scene after their first look photos. I actually took a video, & the Bride reviewed it frame by frame with me to find the perfect moment. This painting speaks to the closeness they share & their personalities, while…
