Live Fine-Art Paintings & Guest Illustrations
for Weddings, Events and Corperate
Join the Team
I am looking for freelance artists to join my team!
​
Have you ever thought about becoming a live artist? Perhaps you’ve made a start but can’t seem to get things to take off.
With 800+ enquiries a year, I'm looking to build a team of talented and reliable artists and illustrators to paint at events.
This would suit an early or mid-career artist who is looking for support to develop their practise and business skills, or for artists working full-time wanting to bring in some more income.
The Art
I am looking for an artist who can create ‘Guest Portraits’ for weddings and events - live!
I am open to a range of styles, sketching, painting or even digital art. They could be facial portraits or fashion style sketches.
​
You should be confident in your artistic ability as the roles will require you to create many portraits in a short space of time.
This is a freelance position, so you will not be directly employed by the company, but you will represent the brand and receive support from myself to develop your own business.
​
Compensation can range from £250-600 per day depending on experience.
Requirments
You should be an artist who is confident in your medium. You will regularly practise your art form and have a strong portfolio of work.
​
You should be confident interacting with others, this job is very social as you will be painting at events!
​
It is essential that you have your own car/transport and driving license as you will need to travel to events that, most of the time, you cannot access by public transport.
​
You should be self-driven, professional and organised. You will be working for yourself as a freelance artists. You will be representing the company and brand when going to events.
​
You should be happy to work weekends (most events are on a Saturday). You can choose the events you work. You should be dedicated once you have committed to that event - these events are big moment in people's lives and we strive to not let them down.
​
Reliability is a must.
​
Living near Nottingham or the Midlands would be a bonus so that we can have a regular meeting in person, although not necessary as we can meet on video chat.
​
Support
As part of this opportunity I want to help you grow as a business person and as an artist. To do this I will provide:
​
A profile on the business website which receives hundreds of visitors looking for a live painter every day.
​
A brochure to send to clients who enquire; I have received 700 enquiries this year alone and I can only paint 60 events!
​
Support getting you set up; with guidance on what equipment to buy, what to wear and how events and weddings work.
​
Regular/monthly meetings to catch up and support you with development.
​
Bookings will be managed through the online booking portal and I will offer support and guidance on how to manage projects.
​
Mentoring for all things self-employed and being a full-time artist.
​
Support to level up your skill set and to help you reach your goals.
