Cebuano artist Britney Myisha captures the many emotions of a wedding on canvas
Joyful affairs like weddings are often highly-celebrated and well-documented. From photos, videos, and same-day edits, to photo booths, and even livestreams, couples tend to make sure that their celebration of love is memorialized properly.
“I don’t really like just being in the studio all the time, even if I tried that before. I love being in an atmosphere where there’s a lot of people and celebration,” she said. Thankfully, she came across the idea of live wedding paintings when she was almost getting burnt out from doing art indoors.
“The whole venue was wet. All the guests were wet. And most especially, my painting was dripping wet the whole time I was painting,” she recalled. “I talk with a couple about what they want. And most of them want a surprise, while some of them have certain desires of what style and part of the wedding they would want. It’s either the ceremony or the reception or the first dance. And then I give them an expectation of how it may look,” she said.
“Filipinos are starting to appreciate it more and more. I’ve seen them all reacting in actuality. One thing that really helped Filipinos appreciate art more is when they actually see the process of making art from scratch to finish,” she added. “It was like 70% of the time that I should be painting was cut short,” she said. “But I still had to perform and paint. I just kept calm throughout the whole time because there’s really nothing that I can do if I panic. And I was still able to present a painting that looked complete to them, and the couple still enjoyed it.”
Britney disclosed that her price ranges from P50,000 to 125,000, given that she has already mastered portraiture, accuracy in the faces, and the speed. She also said that she can also finish two paintings in a day or one ceremony.
