Find out about the artist behind The Live Wedding Painter.
The Artist
I’m Kirsty, a teacher-turned-artist, rediscovering the passion I first fell in love with as a child. After years of following the ‘sensible’ career path, I’ve returned to what has always felt most natural to me — creating art.
My Dad first taught me how to draw, and since then, capturing likeness and emotion through painting has been second nature.
Now I'm passionate about building my life and business around what I love —creating bespoke, timeless works of art that couples can treasure forever.
Where Did It Start?
Rewind to October 2021, when I attended two weddings in the same week. Following the weddings, I had the crazy idea that I would paint these two images as gifts for Christmas. Crazy because this came to me mid November, so I had my work cut out to get them finished in time. Fast forward to Christmas, and I was so proud and honoured to gift my creations to the happy couples.
It wasn’t until 2022 that I started seeing other artists on TikTok painting weddings, but doing it live! And I immediately thought, I want in on this!
So in 2023, after many months of thinking, painting, talking and more thinking, The Live Wedding Painter was born.
Beyond
the Studio
I live in Buckinghamshire with my partner, Adam and our adorably fluffy cat, Bazzy. If you're as obsessed with cats as I am, we'll get along just fine!
Outside of my studio, I enjoy staying active and keeping fit and can be found at various Parkrun locations on a Saturday morning as well as tearing up the netball courts during the week.
Being quite competitive, I have a real passion for board games and love discovering new ones to play. I'm also a huge fan of escape rooms!
And I'll say no to watching a 2 hour film because it's too long, but then happily sit there through 3 hours of back-to-back episodes of a Netflix series.
