Live Wedding Painting at Villa Barone Hilltop Manor, NY

A Timeless Collaboration: Chris & Rosanna’s Live Wedding Painting at Villa Barone Hilltop Manor NY

Some wedding days stay with you long after the last brushstroke—and Chris and Rosanna’s celebration at Villa Barone Hilltop Manor in Mahopac, New York was one of those days. From our earliest conversations, it was clear this would be a thoughtful and meaningful collaboration, rooted in trust, shared vision, and a love for artistry.

A Word from the Bride

“Linda is an exceptionally gifted artist, and working with her has been an absolute joy. From the moment my husband and I shared our vision, she understood it as if she could see exactly what we envisioned and transformed it into a work of art beyond anything we imagined.

We recently received our finished wedding painting, and it is absolutely breathtaking. Every detail—each flower, every subtle texture, even the intricate design of my wedding dress—was captured with such care and precision that the painting feels alive. Throughout the night, our family and friends were mesmerized as they watched the painting come to life, and they still can’t stop talking about how incredible it was to see it progress in real time.

Linda’s ability to infuse both emotion and realism into her work is extraordinary. We are deeply grateful for the timeless piece she created for us; it is a treasure we will cherish for a lifetime. For anyone seeking a live wedding painter who embodies artistry, professionalism, and genuine heart, we wholeheartedly and unequivocally recommend Linda!”

The Art of Collaboration

Creating a live wedding painting is never just about capturing what a moment looks like—it’s about capturing how it feels. With Chris and Rosanna, every detail mattered, from the elegance of the setting to the quiet emotion of the moment unfolding on canvas.

As the evening progressed, guests gathered to watch the painting take shape. There’s something timeless about witnessing art being created in real time—it slows the pace of the day and invites people to truly take it in. That shared experience becomes part of the memory itself.

After the wedding, I brought the painting back to my studio, where I carefully refined the details, textures, and atmosphere. This final stage is essential to my process and ensures the finished piece becomes a lasting heirloom—one that can be enjoyed for generations.

Dean also created a beautiful highlight film of the evening, which Chris and Rosanna loved. It captures not only the progression of the painting, but the energy, emotion, and joy that surrounded it.

A Lasting Heirloom

Working with Chris and Rosanna was a true joy. Collaborations like this are why I love what I do—creating custom artwork that tells a story and preserves a meaningful moment in time.

If you’re planning a wedding and are drawn to the idea of a painting created live on your wedding day, I would be honored to help tell your story.
