HAND PAINTED WEDDING ILLUSTRATIONS
There’s something undeniably special about the soft, timeless beauty of watercolour. Its loose, hand-rendered style brings a sense of artisan craft that no digital template can replicate. With hand painted wedding illustrations, you have complete flexibility - the colour, composition and overall vibe is tailored to you. Whether you dream of a fully illustrated invitation suite, custom wedding crest or venue illustration, I can paint unique and distinguished artwork perfectly tailored to your wedding.
WHY DO I LOVE WATERCOLOUR PAINTING?
I adore painting with watercolours. It is the perfect medium for capturing the botanical beauty and intricate detail required for wedding stationery. I like to use wet-on-wet techniques for the weathered stonework associated with old churches and castle venues and to paint ethereal skies and oceans for coastal wedding invitations. I love layering and glazing flowers and foliage in a perfectly mixed colour palette. Above all, I love using watercolours for their versatility and charming unpredictability. Their translucent quality allows for delicate layering, which adds depth and luminosity to a painting, making colours appear vibrant yet soft. The fluid nature of watercolour encourages my creativity and spontaneity, as the paint often flows and blends in unexpected ways, leading to beautiful organic textures and gradients in hand painted wedding illustrations.

Why Should You Use a Wedding Illustrator?
While it might be tempting to use an online template for your wedding invitations, partnering with a professional wedding illustrator offers unmatched benefits. Hand-painted wedding illustrations bring an artistry and skill that can’t be replicated by free design software. Working with an illustrator allows you to be deeply involved in the creative process, from selecting typefaces and colours to refining every design detail. Plus, you’ll gain the advantage of their expertise in print and production methods.
