GOOD QUESTIONS, FRIEND
Live Watercolor Guest Portrait FAQs
A few quick answers to commonly asked questions.
What makes Bowtie & Brush different?
Bowtie & Brush isn’t just any live event experience. It’s a luxury guest experience and a meaningful keepsake. Your guests leave with a modern, fashion-illustration style watercolor portrait they’ll actually keep, the artwork fits an elevated wedding vibe, and I run my ship so smoothly that it feels effortless and your guests feel included on a busy wedding day.
What services do you offer?
Bowtie & Brush offers unique live guest portrait and fashion illustration services that serve as entertainment during your wedding while also giving you a lasting keepsake from your special day or event.
Where are you located?
Washougal, WA. Just 30 minutes outside of Portland.
Do you have a travel fee?
I offer flat travel fees for local events and many popular destinations across the country, so you can get a clear idea without a bunch of back-and-forth.
For local celebrations, this typically covers mileage and gas. For destination events, it may include gas/mileage or airfare, lodging, plus a per diem for food and incidentals.
You’ll see the exact travel fee when you select your region on my inquiry form. If your destination isn’t listed, or if it’s international, a custom travel quote will be required.
Do you have any setup requirements for live events?
I require at least one 4–6 ft table with linen, 1–2 chairs, access to an electrical outlet, access to water, and reliable Wi-Fi.
If the event is outside during the daytime, I must be stationed in a covered area.
How do I secure you for my event?
You will need to pay a 30% non-refundable retainer upon signing the contract. The remaining balance is due two weeks before your event.
