What is The Wedding Painter?

The Wedding Painter is a service provided by published artist Chris "Okse" Oxenbury .

Imagine the excitement and buzz created amongst your guests by having a professional painter working on a unique piece of art on your special day!

As your guests arrive at the reception from the ceremony, professional artist Okse will paint a pre-chosen favourite photo of the couple in front of the gathered crowd.

Okse finds that having an artist painting at the wedding not only provides excellent entertainment but acts as a real icebreaker and a unique talking point as the guests and the couple see the image come to life before their very eyes.

Okse has many skills when it comes to the creation of art, he is currently awaiting the release of his first iPad Game "Feed Momo" Okse created the main character and all the art within the game.

He has also been working with "Gzero" working on apps "TvCatchup" and "Vocal, Voice reminders made easy"
