Replying to @WilliWin I wish I could show Casey’s reactions to everyone when they ask if I enjoy being a Live Wedding Painter… I wouldn’t trade it for the world! 🥹❤️
One of my favourite AND most complex paintings to date. Here’s why 👇 This painting was complicated in so many beautiful ways: 1. The ceremony and reception were at two separate venues. Logistically, this makes things a little more difficult (but always worth it!) 2. The vision for the painting was so intricate from a technical standpoint. The church was so beautiful and included sculptural portraits within the mouldings and stone masonry. 3. This painting was HUGE! This is my Collector’s Edition size. I had the length of the reception to cover the entire canvas with paint. 4. I was 30 weeks pregnant, so my stamina was taking a little hit, BUT, so much extra love went into this painting 🥰 Live Wedding Painting at Leonda by the Yarra.
When their personalities shine in the painting, my job is done. I don’t want my paintings to just look like the couple, I want them to *feel* like the couple and radiate their personalities and love. Live Wedding Painting Melbourne Australia
The evolution of guest reactions over a wedding night is one of my favourite phenomenons. From envouragement, to straight up skepticism, to excitement at the end-of-night progress. Touch ups to come 🥰 Live wedding painting, Dromana Estate. Melbourne, Australia
Live Wedding Painting touch ups ✨ When I discovered how to properly touch up my work, it truly took my paintings to a new level. It is one of my favourite processes as a live wedding painter! Video inspired by @Lauren Ashley Studios
I LOVE a challenge, and a challenge this was. In situations like these, I forgo the background details to ensure the couple’s likeness isn’t sacrified for challenging details. I knew these windows needed more time and attention than I had on the night, so I left their details for the studio.

I absolutely loved Ashley & Melody’s reaction to their forest painting. 🥰 Live wedding painting, Melbourne Australia
