As seen on NBC and WGN, Kraneil Fine Art is Chicago’s premier live wedding painter specializing in soulful and vibrant art.
Elevate your celebration with a one-of-a-kind interactive experience. Beyond traditional photography, Live Wedding Painting captures the energy, movement, and genuine emotion of your day in real-time at Iconic venues like The Drake Oak Brook, The armour House, The Geraghty, Ritz Carlton in downtown, a skyline ceremony at the Adler Planetarium, rooftop views at Royal Sonesta Riverwalk or a romantic garden wedding at the Chicago Botanic Garden, I transform your "must-have" moments into a museum-quality heirloom.
Watch as your ceremony or first dance comes to life on a grand luxury canvas.
Based in the heart of Chicago, I am proud to serve the entire Midwest and available for destination weddings nationwide. My vibrant, "loose" impressionistic style with a touch of realism in portraits ensures that your painting is not just a reproduction of a photo, but a living memory of your legacy that you are proud to display at your forever home.
