Aeron, impressionistic & expressive acrylic live wedding painter based in CA

Most wedding paintings leave with the artist and arrive weeks later. Ours is finished, start to finish, before your celebration ends.

We’re Aeron and Tracy, a husband-and-wife painting team. Aeron brings nearly two decades of experience as a professional artist, and with the two of us working side by side, we can complete a large, richly detailed painting on the day itself: an heirloom that tells the story of your love in a single, timeless work of art.

Our process is built for likeness. After capturing your chosen moment in a photograph, Aeron projects the image onto the canvas in a private space, laying in exceptional detail in your faces before the painting begins in earnest. From there, his impressionistic style takes over: a background wash in burnt umber, then rich, expressive work in color and light, capturing not just the scene but the emotion and atmosphere of the moment.

How It Works

Step 1: Your free consultation

We’ll talk through your vision and the moment you’d love captured on a free consultation call.

Step 2: Setting up

We arrive an hour early to set up, and begin painting as your guests arrive.

Step 3: Capturing the detail

Aeron photographs your chosen moment, then takes the canvas to a private space to project the reference image onto it. It’s how we achieve such striking detail and likeness in every face.

Step 4: Painting live, together

Aeron then builds up the painting, from a burnt umber wash to detailed work in color and light, with Tracy working alongside him throughout the day.

Step 5: Finished, same day

Your painting is completed start to finish at your wedding. There’s no studio finishing, and no waiting weeks for delivery.
