Gagandeep, vibrant acrylic live wedding painter based in Wokingham

Most wedding paintings aim for stillness. Mine are built for energy.

My background is in animation, and after eight years of creating bespoke artwork for clients across the UK, that's exactly what shapes my style which is vibrant, modern, and full of character. Every painting is created entirely by hand and tailored to your story, capturing the day with the same sense of movement and life it actually had.

I only take on a limited number of weddings each year, so every couple I work with gets the time, attention, and creativity their day deserves. What you receive isn't just a memory of the day, it's an investment in a piece that holds the energy of it, made to last for generations.

How it works

Step 1 — Your consultation

Before the wedding, we'll talk through your vision — the moment you'd like captured, your style preferences, and any details that matter most to you, so the painting feels completely your own.

Step 2 — Live painting on the day

I paint live, on site, using museum-grade materials — Winsor & Newton oils and acrylics on stretched linen canvas that I prepare and stretch by hand myself. Your guests watch the piece come together in real time, right there in the room.

Step 3 — Studio refinement

After the wedding, I add further detail and refinement in the studio — every package includes this step, ensuring the finished piece reaches its full depth and detail.

Step 4 — Secure delivery

Your finished painting is delivered to you securely, ready to hang.

Choosing Your Package

There are two decisions to make: your paint, and your size.

Acrylic

Bold, vibrant and quick-drying, acrylic gives you a beautifully detailed painting with a satin varnish finish built to last. It’s a brilliant choice if you want striking colour and clarity, and the energy of your day captured at its brightest.

Heirloom Oil

My top-tier option. Oil’s slower drying time lets me build up more layers of colour and depth, giving your painting the timeless, classic quality that’s traditionally handed down through generations. I use only refined linseed oils, with no thinners or turpentine, and finish with a specialist varnish, making it an eco-friendly choice as well as a beautiful one.

Then choose your size

Both come in two sizes. At 16×20in, your painting is a versatile piece that sits beautifully in almost any room. At 20×30in, it has real presence, made to be the focal point of a wall.
