Events
I work at all kinds of events: corporate events, weddings, concerts and festivals, sport and fashion events, product launches, lectures and discussions, private celebrations, engagement and birthday parties, Halloween parties, etc.
During the event I observe and sketch your guests or event visitors capturing their moods, movements, environments and special moments. If you want quick life portraits of the guests, I would ask them to pose for 5-7 minutes. Your guests will be able to take the drawings to keep the memory of the event!

marker or oil pastels on paper
Before the event, we will discuss your ideas and agree the details to suit your needs. I will set up my easel on the day of the event and will paint throughout the event. I take photos of you and your guests, so no posing is necessary for anyone.

acrylic or oil on canvas
I create expressive paintings based on the customer’s photos or my live sketches in real time. I transform them into beautiful works of art that capture the essence of the moment. I believe art should be a reflection of the artist's vision, and there is no reason to copy photos.

portfolio
Welcome to my portfolio section! Here you'll find a selection of my work, showcasing the unique and personalised pieces I've recently created for my clients.
I create one-of-a-kind paintings throughout the events to save the magic of your special day. You can also order a painting before or after the fact and get a personalised gift for yourself and your loved ones that will remind you of your special day for years to come.
Quick sketches and portraits throughout an event can add a unique touch to any personal celebration or corporate event. It also provides entertainment for guests and creates a fun and memorable atmosphere for any occasion.
