On Saturday, June 15, I had the wonderful opportunity to paint live at a wedding at the
Allan House in Austin, TX for a lovely couple. I arrived several hours before the wedding started, and painted in the background. I did the finishing touches during the ceremony and reception. It took me about 4 1/2 hours to do the completed painting. It was a beautiful wedding, coordinated by
Pearl Events Austin.
I love the energy of painting live and also the pressure to produce a beautiful final product. I think the painting came out great and I am so pleased with it!
My set-up at the venue. I started with a bright pink underpainting.
