Turning the moments you never want to forget into art you'll treasure forever.

Your once-in-a-lifetime moments deserve one-of-a-kind keepsakes.

That's why, while you're making memories, I'll be turning them into art.

Live Event Painting

Live wedding and event painter based out of Columbus, OH, creating custom, hand-painted keepsakes of your most meaningful moments.

Live event painting is the art of transforming a meaningful moment into a one-of-a-kind painting, created before your eyes, that will tell your story for generations to come. As guests watch the artwork unfold, they get a glimpse into the creative process, making the experience as memorable as the finished piece.

Based in Columbus, Ohio, fine artist Leah Seaman of ArtaBella Gallery specializes in live wedding painting and event painting in a style she calls romanticized realism. By blending realistic detail with the emotion of the moment, Leah creates heirloom artwork that captures not just how your day looked, but how it felt.

Before the celebration ends, you'll get to see your painting come to life. Leah then brings it back to her studio for final touches, varnishing, and preparation for its forever home.

Making Art a Little More Magical

I love bringing people together through art and creating experiences that make them stop, smile, and feel something. Whether I'm painting live at a wedding, transforming a wall with a custom mural, or creating watercolor portraits for guests to take home, I want people to feel part of the magic. With years of experience and a playful, approachable personality, I make art feel less like something you simply admire from afar and more like something you get to experience for yourself. I bring the creativity, the energy, and the fun, creating one-of-a-kind moments that spark conversation, invite connection, and leave people with something beautiful to remember long after the paint dries.
