A keepsake for more than the wedding day
A venue illustration works for more than one moment:
- An engagement gift, before the day itself.
- A wedding-day gift for the couple.
- A first anniversary gift — the traditional gift is paper.
- A thank-you for the parents who hosted.
- Artwork to reuse on your save-the-dates and invitations.
The style your venue would be painted in
I haven't painted your venue yet — that's rather the point. Every commission starts from your photos. But this is the ink-and-wash style it would be painted in, on paintings of Kent places you might recognise:
Loose washes over precise ink line — the buildings accurate enough that you can name the place at a glance, the colour soft enough to live on a wall for the next forty years.
