I am a traveling professional live artist that has painted at over hundreds of events all over the United States for the last 10 years. My style is very colorful, whimsical, impressionistic but detailed. I am from New Orleans and love to create, paint and be a part of your big day by making you feel special while creating a painting for you that will last forever.

The question I often get asked is, "What is Live Painting?" Basically, I paint the wedding scene live and in front of guests! The canvas begins blank with nothing on it and by the end of the night the canvas is filled with a memory that will last forever.  This scene can either be the first dance, party scene, second line or whatever you desire for your event.

Here's a little bit more about me...I am an introvert who loves to create. You will see that I create many different things. That is mainly because I am so passionate and love what I do. 
I hope that it translates in all of my work and that it makes you happy!
​
My favorite thing to paint is portraits. In fact I have been painting professionally for ten years now. I will never forget my first wedding, I was so nervous but I absolutely loved it. I am so happy that I am living my dream and fulfilling my purpose. There is nothing better than to be at a big party celebrating love! Nothing better.  You can also find more of my artwork on my etsy shop @pappionart.
