Would you like a knife painting done live on the spot of your wedding or other special event taking place in metro Detroit? You will probably have a photographer and video person there to record the ceremony, but there's nothing like having a piece of art to remind you of the memories of a certain event at your celebration. Perhaps the first dance of the bride and groom or maybe the cutting of the cake. I will bring my easel and supplies to your venue and create a knife acrylic painting on the spot.
If you plan on getting the painting framed, I recommend having it painted on an archival 1/8" panel or a 1/2" deep canvas. If you'd like to hang it unframed, I can also paint it on a 1.5" deep canvas with the sides painted any color you wish.
The minimum size I work in is 16" x 20", which costs $1,200 unframed.
The maximum size I work in for event paintings is 18" x 24", which costs $1,800 unframed.
I require a 50% deposit to hold the date and the balance of the cost when I deliver the final painting at the event. If the event is outside the trip-county region of metro Detroit (Wayne, Oakland, or Macomb counties), then you will also be responsible for my travel and hotel expenses.
If you prefer the painting be rendered in oil paint or would like your painting to be larger than 18" x 24", I recommend you invite me to take reference photos at the event and paint the commissioned piece back in my studio. Or I could work from photos you provide. Click here for more details of studio commissions.
If you're interested in hiring me to do this unique remembrance of your special day, please contact me and we'll discuss the details.
