From Blank Canvas to Wedding Day Magic — My Journey as a Live Painter

When I first picked up a paintbrush, I never imagined it would lead me to ballrooms full of laughter, first dances lit by fairy lights, and the quiet joy of capturing love in real time.

But here we are—and Brushstrokes and Bubbly was born out of that very magic.

Why I Paint Live at Weddings

There’s something wildly beautiful about painting a moment as it happens. No filters. No retakes. Just real, raw emotion.

Live wedding painting lets me freeze a memory—not in a photo, but in layers of watercolor and movement. Whether it’s a couple sharing their first kiss or a packed dance floor swaying under string lights, I get to turn fleeting moments into forever keepsakes. It’s not just art. It’s storytelling—with color, with feeling, and with heart.

What You’ll Find Here on the Blog

This blog is a cozy corner of the internet where I’ll share:

• Behind-the-scenes from weddings I’ve painted

• Watercolor tips for artists (or curious beginners!)

• Lessons learned from building a creative business

• Honest stories from life as a mom, artist, and dream-chaser

• Ideas for thoughtful, artistic gifting

Whether you’re planning a wedding, dreaming of starting your own art business, or just love pretty things—I’m glad you’re here.

What’s Next

You can expect fresh blog posts 2–3 times a month (and some surprises along the way). If there’s something you’re curious about—whether it’s watercolor supplies I swear by or how I paint live on-site—let me know!

This space is for us to connect, create, and celebrate the art of memory-making.

Until next time—
