About this vendor
I'm so happy that you're here! My name is Debbie Real, I am a live wedding artist from Augusta , Ga. The wedding day is such a special and fun day to celebrate. My original art work will preserve the day with unique reflection of who you are as a couple. This beautiful , original art will grace your home for generations to come !
My live artistry offers an aspect of entertainment that will keep your guest amused for hours on end - even the youngest - I enjoy bringing art supplies so they can join in on the fun, too ! Before the special day we will collaborate to capture every detail to be painted during the reception for your guests to enjoy. The day of the ceremony , I arrive several hours early to set up, prepare and start painting the background .During the reception the guests will see the painting come alive right before their eyes.
Art has always been a passion of mine since childhood. Before my art career, I worked in dentistry for many years. It is funny to me that I found it required so much creativity and was actually an art. Over the years, my eye for detail in dentistry began to inspire me to find my own artistic style, which now consist of abstracts, and realism.
I have found that artwork is part of a personal ministry for me. This gift has not only taken me to participate in art lessons and art shows across the country and around the world. I enjoy donating art pieces to local charities and painting angels to give to those who are going through difficult times .
While I enjoy creating all types of work, weddings are my favorite though. I find providing live painting experiences to be enjoyable and entertaining , and the more people who approach me and watch , the better! I find it relaxes me . And the music, the dancing, the atmosphere - it's so electric ! With all the excitement and joy that is happening , I'm able to express that on my canvas, and I'm able to bring what's happening on your special day into your unique and custom painting.
I am based in Augusta , Georgia and available for travel, so please inquire for information and details. Also please check out my instagram and facebook pages ( web site coming soon ) to see more of my art.
I happily look forward to having the opportunity to paint your wedding !
With Joy ,
Debbie

When my daughter told me she wanted a live wedding artist at her wedding to paint the first dance I was confused. I had never heard of anything like that. But I was intrigued. We called Debbie and booked a date. And what an excellent decision that was! Not only was the painting fabulous, she became part of the entertainment. The guests loved watching the painting come to life as the evening progressed. And she even added in the parents watching the dance which was a special treat. My daughter and son-in-law now have a unique and beautiful keepsake of their special night. Beyond that, Debbie is delightful! You will enjoy working with her!
Having a Live Wedding Artist for our daughters wedding was the best decision my husband and I could have made. Debbie is so talented and she makes you feel like family the moment you meet her. She is so articulate with the finished painting not missing out on the smallest of details. This was out wedding gift to our daughter and to say she was blown away with Debbie is an understatement. I promise you, you will not regret the memories that last a lifetime. I cannot brag on Debbie enough!❤️
My husband and I got married November 2018 and having Debbie there to capture our first dance is our most precious take away from our wedding. We have it hanging in our living room and is always a conversation piece. Our guest really enjoyed watching her and asked questions as well. It was the talk of the night! She is reasonably priced as well and local to the Augusta area! Don’t hesitate and book her for your wedding!
We were given a painting of our wedding as a house warming gift and both my husband and I teared up when we saw it. Debbie’s work is so beautiful!!
We love our unique piece of art that commemorates our day! We highly recommend Debbie; she does a beautiful job capturing a special moment that will live in your home for years to come!
Debbie has done several paintings for me and my family. Her paintings of my oldest son and daughter in law on their wedding day captured their spirits and the love of their special day so perfectly. Debbie has a God given gift to see such details in each person/ couple or anything that she paints. I would give her 10 stars!! She is a blessing to all !
Debbie painted a picture of my son and his beautiful bride. It was of their first look. No detail was left off, from the lace on her gown, and veil and sleeves it was the most beautiful painting! She was able to capture everything we wanted from that picture perfect day. The most amazing thing was the picture that she painted was from two different pictures. She was able to create it like she saw it for her own eyes.
Debbie was so easy to get in touch with, super at communication and got my painting done in just a matter of weeks. My son and daughter in law absolutely loved it. We gave it to them as a housewarming gift! Debbie is definitely the one you need to contact if you want someone to recreate such precious memories.
Debbie has painted several things for me over the years. She is so personable and easy to work with. I love how she has brought each piece to life . Having Debbie paint for you will be one of the best gifts you could ever give yourself.
Debbie is so personable and so much fun to work with. She adds such a unique and fun element to painting live at the wedding or reception. What a beautiful piece of art to have for years to come. Her paintings are amazing. She has such an eye for detail. Her love for art surely shines through her paintings.
As the mother-of-the-bride, I was moved to see such a beautiful rendition of my daughter's wedding being crafted live. During my lifetime I have never seen such raw talent unfold right before my eyes. I did not know at the time who this amazing artist was but I watched as she effortlessly crafted a this memorable masterpiece. Real Art captured a moment that I do not anticipate anyone in attendance every forgetting from our daughter's memorable wedding. Thank you for such a beautiful gift to our daughter Mrs. Real.
I'm a man of few words but could not allow this opportunity to pass by to let the world know of my experience with Real Art. In October of 2019, I married the love of my life and soulmate. The day began with what seemed like a million things still left to still do along with my constant thoughts of how my Bride-to-be was doing while she and I were separated until the ceremony. The entire day went by like a blur but there was one moment that I have etched in my heart forever. That moment was when I grabbed ahold of her soft hands and looked deep into her beautiful hazel eyes and said, "I do" from my soul. While I thought I would only remember that moment from raw emotion and memory, I learned later while at our wedding reception that Real Art had captured that exact moment with the stroke of her paint brush! I was astonished, emotionally moved to tears and as a man on my wedding day, cried all over again when I saw her finished product. Her work is purely God given talent. Unique in style and refreshing to the eyes and heart. What was even more impressive was that she seemed to not be bothered by the festive music and constant onlookers who hovered over her shoulder as they watched in amazement as she brought to life, in a painting what they all witnessed just hours prior. Debbie Real is a true gift to any Groom and Bride and I wholeheartedly endorse Real Art. A live painting gift is one that will forever, and I mean forever be worth your investment!
Real Art by Debbie Real was by far the most unique wedding gift my husband and I received. Debbie arrived to our venue two hours before the wedding to begin painting and remained all the way through the reception. Her incredible talents brought to life a moment of our ceremony we will cherish forever. Seeing the hand crafted masterpiece she presented to us at our reception was awe-inspiring and completely blew away our guests. Live Painting by Real Art is one of the best if not THE best gift a Bride and Groom can receive. We give this artist five stars for her incredible talent and delightful personality. She truly is a professional with a humble heart.
