Live Painting Services in Florida
Create unforgettable moments with live painting at your Florida event — a captivating blend of art and experience, perfect for weddings, brand activations, luxury parties, and corporate events that deserve a personalized and elegant touch.
As a live event artist based in Florida, I specialize in transforming special moments into timeless keepsakes right before your guests’ eyes. With over 16 years of experience as a professional painter and calligrapher, I’ve had the joy of painting at weddings, brand activations, and high-end celebrations across Palm Beach, Miami, Orlando, and beyond.
What makes live painting so magical is its ability to create a sense of awe and connection. Whether I’m capturing a couple’s first dance, hand-painting custom portraits for your guests, or live-illustrating luxury products, each stroke adds beauty and intimacy to the atmosphere. It’s more than entertainment—it’s a personalized art experience your guests will talk about long after the event ends.

I'm Carla Schall, a celebrity calligrapher and founder of Carla Schall Designs. For over 18 years, I’ve had the joy of bringing elegance and personalization to events through live calligraphy, hand engraving, embossing, and painting. From New York to Palm Beach, I’ve worked with luxury brands and clients to create unforgettable moments that truly stand out.
My journey with calligraphy began as a child, writing letters with my beloved Nana, who first introduced me to the world of art. That passion became my purpose, and today, I’m proud to share it through each personalized detail I create. Whether I’m working on a brand activation, wedding, or corporate event, my goal is always to leave guests feeling seen, inspired, and connected.

We have had the pleasure of working with Carla Schall for many years now, and her talent and creativity is second to none. Our first encounter with Carla was at a wine dinner where she was hired to personalize and engrave bottles of wine for our guests. It was such a cool touch and added so much value to the event, making it truly memorable. Carla's talent is undeniable, but what truly sets her apart is her kindness and professionalism.
Fast forward a few years, and Carla remains a go-to partner for all our special events, activations, private dinners, and more. Her exceptional skill and attention to detail have made her one of the best engravers (and artists) in the industry. She brings a personal touch to every event, ensuring that each guest feels special and appreciated.
Carla Schall is not only a true professional but also a wonderful human being. We highly recommend her services to anyone looking to add a unique and heartfelt touch to their events.

What Makes My Live Painting Special
With over 16 years of experience serving Florida's luxury market, I know how to capture the essence and emotion of celebrations across the state. From intimate gatherings in charming Cedar Key to grand celebrations at luxury resorts in Naples, I create paintings that feel authentic to your story and unforgettable for your Florida guests.
Trusted by luxury brands, celebrity clients, and Florida's most discerning hosts, I bring the same level of artistry and professionalism to your event, ensuring every brushstroke contributes to a masterpiece worthy of Florida's most sophisticated celebrations.
Live painting naturally creates gathering moments at Florida venues, turning artistic creation into engaging entertainment that sparks conversation and wonder.
I recommend booking 4-6 weeks ahead, especially during Florida's peak wedding and event season (winter and spring months). However, I've accommodated shorter-notice celebrations throughout the state. Just call and we'll work with your Florida event timeline.
How far in advance should Florida hosts book live painting?
Depending on complexity and size, paintings typically take 2-4 hours to complete. For longer events, I can work on multiple pieces or create larger, more detailed artwork. We'll plan the timing to ensure the painting process enhances rather than disrupts your Florida celebration.
How long does a live painting take during Florida events?
Absolutely. I serve clients from Miami-Dade to Escambia County, Southwest Florida to the Space Coast. I've painted at beachfront resorts, historic venues, modern galleries, and private estates across Florida from Fernandina Beach to Key Largo.
Do you travel throughout Florida for painting services?
I can paint venues, landscapes, portraits, symbolic artwork, abstract pieces, or any subject that's meaningful to your celebration. We'll discuss your preferences during planning to ensure the artwork perfectly captures your vision, whether it's your beachfront ceremony or your corporate headquarters.
What can you paint at Florida events?
I bring all professional painting supplies, easels, canvases, and setup materials to any Florida venue. You just need to provide the space and inspiration, and I handle all the artistic logistics, whether you're hosting in Collier, Orange, or Duval County.
Do you provide painting materials or do Florida clients need to arrange them?
