Your wedding day + my love of painting and art = a match made!

Hello friend! I know you are making some big decisions right now.

Your wedding day is going to become everything you could possibly want, but I get it- it takes some work!

Let me tell you a bit about me to get started, and then we'll get to what counts: how live wedding painting can make your day extra special.

First, my name is Kay, and I've been bringing love stories to life through art for years, but for the past 5 years, I've specialized in live wedding painting.

My impressionist style captures the beauty of landscapes and the intimacy of portraits, creating pieces that age beautifully with time - just like your love.

Based in Montana but happy to travel, I bring the magic of live painting to couples who want something truly special for themselves. Each painting brings the treasured moments to life for years after your wedding day.

Because heck, if you're doing it once, you might as well get the most out of it that you can!

Why Choose Kay

You've got options. In the last couple of years, Live Wedding Painting has taken off, and there are more artists than I ever imagined in the field.

So, here are a couple of the ways I can add to your day.

🌟 I love nothing more than focusing in with my artistic, storytelling eye, and picking out the things and the details that are really special about you and your's.

🌟As a lifelong observer with a kind heart, I can often clue in to what's really special- and bring that to life for you.

🌟 As a seasoned professional, I am proud of helping my clients by adding to their day- not their to-do list.

I asked my past clients what I bring to the table, and this is what they said:

※

Outdoor Painter

I specialize in and am most at home outside in beautiful landscapes. Whether that be the mountains of Montana or the deserts of Arizona, I know how to work in the elements and how to let the landscape speak to me. If you're getting married at a spectacular, outdoor venue, I know how to capture the atmosphere, perspective and the dream!

✓

Completely Self-Sufficient

True Montana practicality - I get things done without adding any stress to your planning. Quick, unobtrusive setup, work well with all vendors, and handle any conditions that come up. You won't even know I'm there until the big reveal!

♥

Warm & Engaging Presence

I believe art should be integrated into our lives! With a genuine smile and inviting energy, I love connecting with your guests and hearing about your love story. It's this personal connection that helps me capture the perfect moment.

✦

Trained Impressionist Artist

My loose, vibrant brushstrokes create paintings that grow more meaningful with time. This isn't a photo replica - it's a piece of art first that captures the light and essence of your day in a way that never goes out of style.

If we team up, your painting will be-

◈ Full of Vibrant Color & Movement

I play with color to make your painting bright, vibrant, and full of life - capturing not just how your day looked, but how it felt.

◆ Made with Museum-Quality Materials

I paint on cradled hardboard (what the masters used!) with the finest materials. Durable, ready to hang, and built to last generations.

✦ Perfected After Your Day

I take your painting home to add final touches and make it absolutely perfect before delivery (included in most packages).

※ Art That Reveals More

Couples tell me they discover something new in their painting every time they look at it - even years later, hanging in their home every day.

♥ All Love Stories Welcome

Proud LGBTQIA+ ally celebrating all couples and their unique love stories. Every love deserves to be captured and treasured, and I'm honored to paint the beauty of your authentic celebration.

My Mission

"I'm on a mission to make art more integrated into our lives. Your wedding painting isn't just decoration - it's a living piece of your love story that captures the personality and atmosphere of your day in a way that grows more meaningful with time."

- Kay Potter, Park County's Best Artist

It's Truly a Moment to Treasure

Discover why couples treasure their live wedding paintings as irreplaceable memories that capture emotions and unique insights.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"We received this as a wedding gift. It was amazing! I was painting during our ceremony! Never did we imagine that this would materialize the moment through definition. It's certainly not video or canvas but it isn't from our love dogs at the front, to the butterfly release at the end even our flower crowns. Our guests were so excited to come recognize themselves through their posture and/or outfits. What a memory! Highly recommend."
