Live Event Watercolor Sketches
Commemorate your special day with one-of-kind, hand-painted guest portraits.
How it Works
-
The Station: Dana and an assistant set up a professional painting station at your venue (She will need a table near an outlet and 2 chairs)
-
The Process: We snap a quick photo of your guests so they don't have to stand still. They can head back to the dance floor or bar while the magic happens!
-
Each figure is sketched by hand then, hand-painted on high-quality 6”x9” watercolor paper. Dana captures the specific gesture of each person! Perfectly imperfect!
-
The Delivery: Once dry, paintings are tucked into clear cellophane envelopes with sturdy cardboard backing for protection and easy travel.
Timing & Capacity

Quick & Custom: It takes roughly 10 minutes to paint one person (approx. 10–15 minutes per couple).

Frequently Asked Questions
Do guests have to wait at the booth? Absolutely not! We want to increase the fun, not ruin it. We take a reference photo and guests can roam the event and return later to collect their custom art.
What if the Dana runs out of time? If I cannot finish all portraits during the event, Dana will take the remaining reference photos back to her studio. These will be finished and delivered/shipped to you within 4 weeks.
How can you ship their painting to them? Each painting has a label to allow the guest to write their Name, address and phone # for convenient shipping.
What does the artist need at the venue? We require a dedicated 5’ x 7’ space out of the main traffic flow but visible to guests, a small table, access to an electrical outlet, and adequate lighting.
How do we book? We recommend booking as early as possible to secure your date! A contract and deposit are required to hold your spot on our calendar. Just contact me using the form below.
