Selected client: Balenciaga
I was invited to create live fashion illustrations during an exclusive Balenciaga event in Copenhagen.
Throughout the evening, guests received elegant hand-drawn portraits created on-site. Watching each illustration come to life became part of the experience itself, while every guest left with a unique piece of original artwork to remember the event.
Live illustration encourages conversation, creates shareable moments and offers guests a truly personal experience that reflects the quality and exclusivity of your brand.
Why choose a live painting?
- A memorable guest experience - Every illustration is created by hand, making each guest feel seen and valued.
- Elegant live entertainment - Watching the creative process unfold naturally attracts attention and becomes part of the event itself.
- Shareable content - Guests frequently photograph and share their illustrations on social media, extending the reach of your event.
- A premium brand experience - Live illustration complements luxury brands, fashion events and exclusive launches with an artistic touch that feels authentic rather than promotional.
- Tailored to your event - Illustrations, paper, presentation and branding can all be customised to reflect your visual identity.
How it works
- Planning - We'll discuss your event, guest numbers, timings and branding requirements to create a tailored experience.
- Live illustration - During the event, I create elegant illustrations live while guests enjoy watching the creative process unfold.
