A LITTLE BIT ABOUT ME
Hello, and thanks for taking an interest in my work!
Having years of experience sketching wedding dress illustrations, creating bespoke wedding invitations and stationery, and drawing wedding portraits, progressing to live illustration is an exciting adventure for me.
I’m an artist and illustrator based in County Galway, Ireland. I’ve been drawing and sketching in a fashion illustration style for over 20 years (I started young), and have recently begun my new venture in Live Wedding and Events Illustration, creating bespoke portraits and fashion illustrations of guests.
Live guest illustration brings a touch of artistry, personalisation and extra sparkle to your special day, and are a wonderful way to entertain your guests. They’ll get to take home their portraits as a sweet memento of your wedding day.
Or perhaps you’d like a bespoke artwork. I offer a range of hand drawn and painted gifts (or treat yourself!), whether it be a venue, dress, perfume, or gin illustration. Why not something new and different - I’d love to hear what you have in mind.

“Cat was such an amazing addition to our wedding day. Having such a gorgeous illustration of us along with our son on display was amazing. Along with this I got a present from my sister of my wedding dress which I just love and can’t wait to hang up. All of our guests told me how much they loved Cat’s illustrations and watching her at work.
I would highly recommend.”

“What can we say!! Cat was just amazing on our wedding day and also for our day 2. The way she took a quick photo of our guests and sketched them absolutely amazingly! Everyone was blown away by her talent and loved their sketch as a keepsake from our wedding. She just sat around working her magic with her beautiful soft demeanour.
We were thrilled to have her with us over our special weekend.
We would highly recommend Cat Flynn for any occasion! ❤️️❤️️” -

“I first came across Cat’s page on Instagram and loved her work she’s the most incredible artist. When we got engaged we wanted something personal for our invites and got in touch with Cat. She was lovely to deal with and so helpful and full of creative ideas. We were delighted with our invitations, they were of the highest quality and we received so many messages from guests saying how beautiful they were.
We couldn’t recommend Cat more highly!!”

“Since I moved into my house just 6 months ago I already have Cat’s drawings in most rooms already !They are so sentimental to me and my family I just love them all. My husband surprised me with a sketch of my wedding dress and I got him a sketch of our family. They make such a special gift and ones we will cherish forever!
Thanks so much Cat”

“I received a beautiful sketch of my wedding dress from White Studio. It is without a doubt the most complimented pieces of art in my home.
Cat has incredible talent (which is obvious to anyone who looks at any of her drawings!) but it is her attention to detail and the effort she put into understanding me and the details of my wedding that I want to commend. She really goes the extra mile to create something wonderful!
I highly recommend commissioning Cat to work her magic for you!!
Also to note the drawing arrived safely and neatly packaged and on time” -

“Cat is an amazingly talented person, I tasked Cat with making a very special mother's day gift. Cat came up with excellent ideas to include special items for my mum, this was after a very brief conversation.
I highly highly recommend Cat, she is the most talented artist & anyone would be very lucky to commission Cat to create a piece of art for them.
Each drawing is so unique & is something both my mum & I will treasure for years to come.” -

“5 stars are not enough! :)
Catherine did a caricature for our wedding and also did the invites. It was the most fun part of the wedding planning. The caricature now hangs in our home and still makes me smile. It reminds me of that special time in our lives and the fun experience of working with Catherine as she developed it. It was so thoughtfully created and included so many wonderful details from our lives.I have also purchased a wedding portrait for my sisters wedding and was blown away by what she produced. It was awesome in the truest meaning of the word. ABSOLUTELY STUNNING!
Honestly, can't recommend her or her work enough.”

LIAM KIDNEY
“When we were getting married we were looking for a nice unique logo that we could use on our invites and mass booklet. We got in touch with Catherine and she designed a beautiful logo for us. Everybody thought the logo was magnificent. The priest based a part of his homily at our wedding on the logo. It showed the two of us on a surf board surfing a big wave setting off on a new adventure of our married life together. We couldn't be happier with the turnaround and uniqueness of Catherine's creation and I would highly recommend her.”

“I asked Catherine to do a very personal piece for me. It was a pleasure to work with her from start to finish. She took great care in all the details including finding the perfect frame in my budget. I am delighted it as it exceeded my expectations. The drawing gets great comments from all who see it. Thank you Catherine!”

TARA LAVIN
“I asked Catherine to draw my wedding dress for me. I wanted a piece of art to hang in my dressing room and I felt a sketch of my wedding dress would be perfect! It is the most special dress I will ever own and I love that I now get to glance at it every day.
Catherine was great to deal with. Ordering couldn't have been easier. I sent her pictures of the dress, my shoes and bouquet and she got to work. I think her art is absolutely amazing. I adore the sketch she did for me and everyone that sees it admires it.
I can't recommend Catherine enough. I know I will be ordering from her again when I need a special gift!”

Sarah was stunned and it hangs pride of place in her home.”

“We had Cat illustrating during the reception of our wedding in the Savoy hotel. From the first time I contacted Cat she was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was very organised which I really liked.
She was the best addition to our reception. All our guests loved her. We were so happy to get to give our guests a beautiful unique keep sake.
I would highly recommend Cat to my family and friends and everyone else. I would hope to work with her again on a future project.”

Sarah Jane Kenny
“We had the pleasure of having Cat join us during our wedding drinks reception in Tinakilly last December. She was honestly the most amazing addition to our day.
Cat not only is incredibly talented but also such a bubbly warm person. Our guests are still talking about her a month on from the wedding. Everyone adored their fashion illustration. Cat spent so much time chatting and getting to know everyone before she painted them which was such a lovely touch. For many it was their first time seeing a live artist at a wedding. Everyone has a stand out wedding supplier at their wedding and for us this was Cat.
You will not be disappointed if you book for your wedding x

“Thanks again so much Cat for being part of our Wedding day on NYE, you really added extra magic and excitement to the day with your interactions with guests and the beautiful illustrations.
It has been such a fun talking point from so many of our guests and everyone was so impressed with you, the concept and the beautiful portraits. I've no doubt you will get some enquiries in the future from the day as everyone was so blown away by it all and a couple of people have asked for your details! And thank you for your beautiful video reel, it's so nice to have that! I'm so glad my sister met you in the summer and made the recommendation.The wedding would not have been the same without you!”

“We contacted Cat to do a drawing of us (and our dog 🥰) for our wedding and we couldn’t be happier with the whole experience and the end result.
Cat was so bubbly, quick to reply and unbelievably helpful! She gave us recommendations on where to get our drawing framed and even went out of her way to arrange delivery at short notice. She sent previews and ensured we were happy with everything in the drawing.
We were absolutely delighted with the end result, she is so talented! Our guests signed the border around the drawing and it is the most beautiful keepsake of our wedding.
We’d highly recommend Cat!”

“We couldn’t recommend Cat Flynn White Studio enough.
We had our bespoke wedding invitation suite designed by Cat. Great experience working with her. We framed our invitations as a momento. All of our guests were very impressed in particular with the inclusion of special local landmarks.
We also had my wedding dress illustration and the attention to detail was so impressive, even capturing the right shade of blue for my shoes. Top class and 5 stars ✨”
