My name is Shannon. I have been a painter most of my life, taking up art classes when I was 3 (thanks Mom)!

I am your premier live event painter in the Okanagan and across BC! With a pen in hand and a passion for capturing moments, I specialize in creating miniature portraits that turn your event into a cherished memory, and travel experiences that put you in the creative seat!

I keep it real! Gifts, experiences and art that is made by hand, and infused with love and meaning in this tech heavy world.

Each event I paint at and each product I make, is designed with bringing creativity into the lives of those I touch. Slow down. Observe. Create. It doesn’t matter if I’m doing it myself, or guiding you along your journey, I move with the same principle.

I started making Experience Kits for travelers in 2026 when I won a Spark Tourism Grant from the Tourism Innovation Lab, TOTA and Destination BC. This idea sparked in me the wish to spread the joy of slow, intentional journeys that support the communities involved, and give back in a meaningful way.

Not in BC? Reach out anyway, my team and I can often travel to your event if it works for everyone. Custom Tourism Sketch Kits for your community can easily be created to support your efforts to encourage slow travel, no matter where you are.

Let's bring creativity back into everyday life, and make it magical!
