To my fellow brides, I hired Gary to be a live paint at my wedding last month. I wanted someone who can capture our once in a life time moment with his artistic talent. As he profusely claims, he is oil painting on top of acrylic paint which he paints at the venue. When I received the painting, it is a bad photo that was photoshopped and printed on canvas with a few brushstrokes to cover up the fact that it was not in fact a real painting. The sharp crisp lines on the edge and the pixilated canvas was a dead giveaway. My review is from my experience and I just to make other brides aware of what artwork they are paying for before spending a lot of money on something that was suppose to be a unique memorable piece.
Our bridal party surprised us with a live painting from Gary and let me tell you the finished product is STUNNING! Anyone we show it to thinks it’s a photograph! Gary is a phenomenal artist, easy and professional to work with! Would hire him again in a heartbeat!
Gary was so sweet to work with and did an AMAZING job. I couldn’t be happier with my painting… it looks so real!
If you’re thinking about hiring a wedding painter, he is your guy.
Gary was one of the easiest vendors to work with. He was responsive , went with the flow , and was willing to answer all questions. My guests loved watching him paint at cocktail hour. He showed me the photo to approve before painting and sent updates about the timeline after wedding. The painting itself is absolutely amazing and exactly what I was hoping for. I would recommend Gary to anyone!
Gary is one of the (if not the most) incredible painter I have ever seen. When you look at the finished painting, you will think it is a photo with the level of detail. He is incredibly kind, easy to work with, and incredibly professional. He dropped our painting off at our house about a month after our wedding and I can’t stop staring at it!! Hire him!! You won’t regret it.
I am absolutely blown away by Gary's work. My parents surprised my husband and I at our wedding by hiring Gary to paint us dancing our first dance. The painting is incredible and looks like a photograph. The attention to detail is amazing and the painting is just breathtaking. The perfect memory of our perfect day.
We hired Gary as a surprise wedding gift for my daughter and son-in-law. The day of the wedding, all of our guests were intrigued watching him paint. The finished painting is so beyond expectation! The detail is exquisite...it looks like a photograph. His turn around time was quick, and the bride and groom were thriIled with it. I cannot say enough good things about Gary and his work. You will not be disappointed!
Hey everyone, Gary is absolutely amazing! He is professional, responsive, friendly, and punctual. We used the Facebook group (MA & RI Wedding Planning and Resale) to find him and we’re so thrilled that we did. He made our dream come true of having a live painting made from our wedding day! If you’re looking for a fantastic experience please do yourselves a favor & hire him!! Thank you for everything Gary!!
Gary was prompt, efficient, and very talented! Well worth the price for a timeless painting of our best moment. I’ve already recommended his work to my friends, and we get nothing but enthusiastic compliments for the painting. By far the best out there!
