Andy Greenlee has been a painter her whole life and a professional live event painter for the last twelve years. She works in oils and watercolors, capturing scenes with playful realism and narrative all the while laughing, chatting and celebrating with her guests. Andy is a California wedding painter, and an Oregon wedding painter, but she travels globally and relishes doing so.
How do I work?
Before each event, I get to know my clients. I want to learn your story, your family’s story, and what is most important to you. On the big day, I only hope to bring your vision to life with my talents and my tools. My goal is to channel your family’s love, joy, and unique spirit into my art.
I would love to have the opportunity to capture the excitement of your special moment as it unfolds. (However, if you are unable to have me at your event, I would be honored to instead craft a piece for you in my own studio— with my help, a favorite photo can be transformed into a truly unforgettable gift.)
What to Expect on the Day
I arrive at the venue hours before your guests so that I can begin a depiction of the setting; building the scene with my sketch and initial brushwork. As your guests arrive, I welcome their views and questions with playfulness and warmth as the piece takes shape. Over the course of the event, I bring your story to life in this work of art, including the details and personalities that make your event and your family special. And at the end of the evening, I’ll reveal the finished artwork for all to see — a beautiful keepsake for your family to cherish.
I also offer guest illustrations, drawing from studies at Parsons in fashion illustration and working with beautiful watercolor brushstrokes.
