LIVE PAINTING

I've been live painting since the summer of 2015 when I attended my first weekend music festival. I was instantly hooked on the experience and have since had many opportunities to contribute my art to these gatherings. I have had the honor of painting at events with Alex Grey, Autumn Skye Morrison and so many talented artists, too many to name. Visuals are such an important part of these experiences and when I'm painting the energy of the room is channeled into my art which shines back into the room and creates a kind of feedback loop!

I approach live painting as if it were a performance rather than paint as if I were at work in my studio. My only rule is that I always start with a blank canvas. The painting evolves more quickly and is generally more energetic to watch and is therefor more entertaining! My painting will capture the energy of the event and in a way is a time capsule that will forever store memories and the energy of the specific time and place where it was created. Priceless.

One-Day-Event Rates:
The rate for a 24x30” canvas is approximately $3,500. That includes my time for the duration of the one-day event, and approximately 5-8 hours of additional studio time to finish the work. Larger canvases are an option but will increase the price. Travel time and expenses are extra. The painting will be delivered wired and ready to hang. For a more specific quote please email me.
