If you have an upcoming birthday, anniversary or other occasion that you’d like to do something really special for, I’d like to suggest commissioning a painting of one of your favorite places, people or things (maybe a floral arrangement).

These are really special gifts and allow for you to personally have a statement in the finished piece. What could be more exciting!

One recent commission was for the parents of adult daughters who were moving from a beloved home. I used a photograph of the three children in the backyard as young children and visited the scene in person to make a quick sketch and take reference photographs. When one of the daughters saw the painting she said, “Mom is going to love this so much she will cry!”

If this seems like something that might interest you, please be in touch. I paint from small pieces up to 30 x 40 and even larger sometimes.

Please email me your photos if you have any and the approximate size of the piece you’d like, so I can give you an accurate price for the painting. We can also arrange for you to present a gift certificate and I will take photographs of your special place at a later date.

I also frame these paintings (or can make arrangements for this for you) quite often now, so let me know if you’d like for me to take care of that. One stop shopping to make it easy for you.
