My husband and I booked Mark to paint our first dance for our June 8, 2024 wedding. We are blown away with how gorgeous the painting is. Mark was also a hit for the guests who loved seeing his process/ seeing him in action. Mark and his studio are so responsive and professional too. If you are considering a live painter at your wedding, book Mark!
