Wedding Expo

Patti and I had a great time this past weekend at the My Montana Wedding Expo. The paintings looked great hung up on the pro panels and lit with basic desk clip lamps purchased at Walmart for $9 a piece. They did the trick nicely and much more economically than their LED counterparts. The hanging system consisted of aluminum strips with a 'U' shape bend at the top so they could hang over the top of the pro panels. Small holes were then drilled every inch of the strips and 15 pound limit 'S' hooks were inserted where ever I wanted to hang a painting. I hung the larger paintings on 2 aluminum strips as those paintings had 2 hanging wires. Thanks to Bob Marceau for his great set up idea.


I also painted an 18"24" painting during the expo of a bride and groom on the shores of Lake McDonald. Attendees of the expo really enjoyed watching me paint and it really helped us to make a lot of connections. We are looking forward to a busy spring and summer with our live wedding painting service and wedding portrait painting.


Check out the pictures of our set up and the images of the painting in progress below.
