    Custom Wedding Dress Painting- the “Allure” 8901


    2014 - 03.11

    Custom wedding dress paintings are my absolute favorite things to create for brides!

    This one was no exception!!

    Do you remember the “Looe Key” underwater grouper and coral painting that a bride bought her her husband as a wedding gift? For their 1 Year wedding anniversary, the husband bought his wife a custom wedding gown painting as her gift! (See my next post to see what she got him!)

    The background color is a blush pink, which I picked up from her blush bridesmaids dresses.

    The wedding dress is the Allure 8901 Style Wedding Dress.

    Copper Leaf Painting


    2013 - 05.24

    Hi! A great season customer of Enzo’s Italian Restaurant, who lives in Copperleaf in Bonita Springs, wanted some copper leaves painted for this home there. He found three leaves one day, and sent me the photo to create into a painting for him. This painting is done in metallic and iridescent paint, so it changes tones as you walk around the painting. We decided on the teal and copper colors since they compliment each other.

    Underwater Grouper Painting – “Looe Key Sanctuary”


    2013 - 05.24

    This is a gift a bride got for her new hubby for their wedding today!
    He loves diving, and sees groupers, yellowtail snappers, and Florida lobsters on his dives down in the keys. I created the underwater grouper painting / coral reed painting for them as a result, with other painted sea life to bring the painting to life!

    Shrimp Boat Painting


    2013 - 05.24

    Hi All! A Facebook friend of mine who lives in Savannah, GA, posted a photo of some Shrimping Boats in a Harbor, and I really wanted to recreate it with a little bit of a different perspective. The setting is sunrise, with a warm glow bouncing off the weathered shrimping boats, docked in the harbor. I named the shrimping boat painting “Safe In The Harbor”. It is 24″ x 48″, acrylics on canvas, and it is available for sale!

    Third On Canvas 2013 – Alexis Martinez Puleio


    2013 - 02.08

    IT IS MY FAVORITE TIME OF THE YEAR!!! That is right! I just finished my two day painting event for Third On Canvas 2013! The weather in Florida was absolutely PERFECT for the event! I was lucky enough to paint next to Popo Flanigan, who is so nice and was a joy to work next to.

    For last year’s Third On Canvas event, I painted orchids and got label as “The Orchid Lady”. In keeping with the name, I wanted to do orchids again this year. However, I stepped up my game this year and introduced RESIN to the artwork!

    I started by painting a wood board a Sea Foam green color, then poured on resin, painted my acrylic orchids on top of this resin coat, and then added a top coat of resin to the painting. This gave a great “floating” effect, with a natural shadow.

    Here are some photos of my White Orchid Painting on Resin, and my Purple Orchid Painting, as well as some fun photos from the day!

    Enjoy!

    Gulf Coast Painting with Resin


    2013 - 02.08

    This is one of my favorite paintings that I did, mostly because it was a painting that I did in my free time.

    I used Oil Paints in a stick form, on wood board, to create the waves crashing here on the Florida Gulf Coast. This Gulf Coast Painting was then coated in epoxy resin…one of my FAVORITE things to do! I loveeeee resin!

    Here is the final product:

    3D World Map Painting


    2013 - 02.08

    This was an exciting painting for me to try, because it was something I had not done in the past. My good friend, Ashley, found a digital image on google of a world map that looked like it was made out of water. She wanted me to try to recreate it for you with a 3D effect.

    To create this effect, I used a modeling paste called Structura, which I then tinted to the color of water.

    Here is the 3D World Map Painting on Canvas:

    Custom Wedding Artwork


    2012 - 10.25

    This has been a post that I have been wanting to post ALL summer long!! Now the time has arrived!! Do Me A Favor Event Concepts, a Naples’ company specializing in custom invitations, stationery, welcome gifts, and elaborate details, asked me to create artwork for a custom wedding logo, that would be used on custom napkins, coffee mugs, wedding invitations,  water bottles, favors, and much more! The concept was to use lilies in a heart shape design that was unique to the Bride and Groom’s personalities. The designs were then used on all things involved in this very special wedding! The design created for all of the custom wedding invitations for the Naples, Florida wedding, were hand painted!

    This was a very special and unique opportunity for me and I am excited to show you some of the final products below!
