Meet the Artist behind Art Larion

Hello! I am Alexandra, a professional watercolour artist and live event illustrator based in Glasgow, Scotland. I paint the moments you'll want to hold onto forever.

Live at your wedding, celebration, or gala with my brush in hand, I am capturing your day as it unfolds in real time. Outside of more festive environments, I'm at home in the studio, creating beautiful keepsakes that celebrate the quieter joys of life - a picture of an old friend, a cherished landscape, or the four-legged companion 

who's already stolen your whole heart. 

My style is loose, lively, and full of movement, much like watercolours themselves.

My wonderful husband, Connor, is frequently by my side or running the show behind the scenes so I can stay exactly where I'm needed: with my brush and my watercolour paints, catching your moment before it's gone.

Live Illustration

Everyone wants an unforgettable wedding, one full of new experiences and lasting memories, and that's where I operate. I set up at your event with paints and brushes and capture the most important moments: the first dance, the kiss at the altar, the spirit of love in the air on the day shared by all family and friends. By the time the evening winds down, you've got a piece of it on paper, made while it was still happening.

Regardless of the event, my live illustration services are certain to entertain, engage, and enhance your evening to make it truly special. 

Pet Portraits & Commissions

Every pet has their own personality, small things that make your best friend them. Some are full of mischief and steal kitchen towels. Others are happy to curl up in your lap and keep you company on rainy days. I paint that. 
 

Each piece is hand-painted or drawn and made to last well beyond the moment it was painted. I create portraits that you'll walk past every day and find yourself smiling,

years from now.

What People Say about Art Larion

  • WOW! Is all I can say. We were lucky enough to have Alexandra illustrate ourselves and our lovely guests on our wedding day and her work is absolutely beautiful. She is incredibly talented, and our guests were amazed to see such unique entertainment - none of them had heard of anything like this before. Her communication from start to finish was fantastic which took away a lot of stress during a very stressful time wedding planning! We are SO glad we had her there on our special day and we are delighted we have such beautiful memories of her work to look back on.

How it works:

Step 1 - Get in touch

Step 2 - Shape the details together

Step 3 - Your piece comes to life

Tell me a little about what you'd like painted: a pet's personality, a wedding keepsake, a moment you want to remember, or something else?
No need to have it all set in stone, just a starting point.

From there, we talk through the specifics such as sizing, style, timing, and other details relevant to your piece. This is very much a collaborative process and I'm very happy to help and give advice throughout.

Whether it's painted live in front of your guests or created from photos in the studio, you'll have a piece made just for you, ready to be treasured for years to come.
