LIVE PAINTING

Historically, an event captured by a painter is a once in a lifetime moment that the host wants remembered in memoriam—by themself & their guests, but also by following generations who couldn’t attend—for the rest of human history. The canon of art history is full of paintings of important events that we all feel like we were present for.

To have the artist perform and paint live at an event an extra fee on top of the cost of the artwork itself. Time spent on a preliminary site visit, setting up, and taking down is not billed. The painting will be started and finished in the studio.
