About Sumthing Artsy

Sumthing Artsy

Owner & Artist

Hi, I’m Summer — a Chicago-based artist specializing in live watercolor guest portraits for weddings and special events. Live guest portraits bring a fun, interactive and personal element to your celebration, and I want to be a part of that! How it Works: Guests are briefly photographed by me or my assistant and then may return to the celebration while I work on their portrait. Guest can check back with me later in the reception and take home their hand-painted keepsake at the end of the night! I’m currently booking Chicagoland weddings and events.

I have been working to perfect own unique style. This will ensure that guests leave your event with a 100% unique and personal piece of artwork. I will work with your specific needs to help create an unforgettable experience for you and your guests! Please reach out with any questions :)

In three words: Calm, Flexible, Thoughtful

    A massive hit with all of our guests!

    If you're looking for the perfect wedding favor and entertainment all in one, hire Summer! She was incredibly professional and completely self-sufficient on the day of—which was amazing since we were so busy mingling. Our guests absolutely loved getting their portraits done and couldn't stop talking about how talented she was. The final paintings are such a beautiful keepsake. Thank you for making our night so memorable!

    Creative & stunning work

    If you’re looking for something one of a kind and creative for your wedding guests, look no further than summer! Her guest portraits are a fun live element to the evening, and all of my guests were so happy with their pictures! A lot of my friends have their portraits framed in their houses. She’s professional, great at communicating and also completed a beautiful piece commemorating my wedding flowers.
