the barn wedding




In the age of digital photography and smartphone snaps, there’s something irresistibly charming about a hand-painted watercolour portrait. It’s a timeless piece of art that not only captures likeness but also the essence and emotion of a moment. Recently, I had the pleasure of creating such a portrait for a newlywed couple and their beloved cat. This painting commemorated their beautiful summer wedding reception held at a rustic barn, nestled in a picturesque location that looked like it was plucked straight out of a storybook.




The couple wanted the portrait to encapsulate not only their bond but also the whimsical, joyous spirit of their wedding. I started with a simple sketch, focusing on the couple’s expressions and the playful presence of their kitty. Using a delicate palette of watercolours, I brought the scene to life. I also attended a wedding reception at this particular place and I can tell for sure that a wedding there is the epitome of a summer dream. The location has a rustic barn, adorned with twinkling fairy lights, wildflowers, and vintage décor that exude a charming, countryside elegance.




Creating a hand-painted watercolour portrait is more than just an artistic endeavour; it’s a celebration of love, life, and the beautiful moments that define us. For this couple, their portrait is a lasting reminder of their magical summer wedding and the beginning of their journey together. It’s a piece of art that tells their story, one brushstroke at a time.




Whether you’re a newlywed couple, a family, or an individual, consider the timeless beauty of a hand-painted watercolour portrait. It’s a unique way to celebrate life’s special moments, capturing not just how you looked, but how you felt in that fleeting, precious moment.
