Dothan, Al. (WDNews) – Rosilyn Holladay joined What’s Happening Wiregrass? to share how she’s turning special moments into lasting works of art through her live event painting services.

Holladay explained that she’s been creating live wedding paintings for about five years, capturing meaningful moments like first dances or walks down the aisle. She begins each piece onsite and later completes fine details in her studio before delivering the finished artwork. In addition to weddings, she also offers guest portraits, painting quick, minimalist-style portraits for attendees to take home.

Her services aren’t limited to weddings either. Holladay has painted at engagement parties, corporate events, and even Mardi Gras balls, where vibrant fashion and energy inspire her work. She said the goal is always to reflect the feeling of the event through color and movement.
