“Carrie was amazing to work with! She took time to get to know us as a couple. Working with her was a journey into the mind of a true artist. She took into consideration all the elements of the area we had in mind for our art to hang. My husband and I are beyond happy with our finished art. It is a beautiful central piece that graces our home. Most of all, getting to know her. Anyone hiring Carrie for an event will be blessed to have her. Carrie’s talent is a gift!”

The Details
During your initial consultation, Wright will ask lots of questions about your event, theme, your decor scheme and where you envision hanging your finished art. She then creates a color plan for your original piece of art, which you will receive within 28 days after your event.
Wright arrives 90 minutes before your event to set up her area. All necessary protections are taken to guarantee your venue and guests remain pristine. She will discreetly clean up at your agreed upon time, which is typically five hours after arrival.
Wright finishes your painting in studio to ensure your final result is stunning. The silk art is then treated to its necessary high-pressure steam process which molecularly bonds the dyes in the silk fibers. The piece becomes entirely light-fast, dust-resistant, and highly durable for generations. The last step is her proprietary museum quality mounting of the silk into your chosen color of floater frame highlighting the shimmering texture of the silk.
