being paid to go abroad?!

Painting at a wedding in Mallorca? Still pinching myself. (Or should that be punching myself — honestly feels that surreal.)

I had the absolute honour of painting live portraits at J+S’s wedding at the jaw-droppingly beautiful Son Mir, and I’m still not over it. From the very first moment — sunshine over Palma, the floral arrangements to die for, and the prettiest canapés doing the rounds — it was clear this wasn’t just a wedding, it was a work of art.

The music, the views, that dreamy driveway entrance… and then the guests. Oh my days, the guests! So warm, friendly, and full of love — any nerves I had melted away the second I started painting and chatting.

To J+S — you two were glowing. Absolutely gutted I didn’t get to have a proper natter with you, but thank you so much for including me in your magical day. I won’t forget it.

And if you’re ever wondering whether I’d pack my paints (and my brightest grin) to travel for your wedding or event…
