Custom portraits
Portraits are a beautiful way to capture a life, a love, a loss. They can immortalize a moment in time. Clients often ask for portraits as gifts - a wedding present for the newlyweds, a Mother’s Day or Father’s Day painting of a child, a memorial gift for a grieving family member. And some clients simply want a painting for themselves. No matter the occasion, the story behind the painting is meaningful and it is the client’s story. Not mine.
