Watercolor Portrait Depicts a Family’s First Home
This 9″ x 12″ watercolor portrait depicts a family’s first home and the great character it possesses. The attractive front door, multi-toned neutral bricks and stonework trim on this handsome home was interesting to render as was the mailbox. The artwork will be a gift from my clients to their son and daughter-in-law and I hope they will be pleased!

Watercolor Portrait of Historic Estate in Villa Ridge, Missouri
This 8″ x 12″ watercolor portrait depicts an historic estate in Villa Ridge, Missouri and was a joy to capture! Situated on 14 acres, the original farmhouse was built in 1840, with a large addition completed in 1930 that doubled the size of the home and it’s so impressive! The flagstone steps lead up to an inviting spacious front porch and balcony that harkens back to a bygone era and a perfect place to relax! The patriotic bunting gracing the balcony and flagpole with American flag are a meaningful touch. The artwork was commissioned by realtor Karol Plawsky of Red Key Realty Leaders for a closing gift to her sellers and I hope this custom house portrait brings many sweet memories of this special property!

The stone work and lovely landscape of this ten year old home give it so much inviting character and I hope this family enjoys many happy years in this spectacular house!

This watercolor portrait of a home in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania will bring many fond memories to the couple that lived there, Austin and Kelly. The artwork was commissioned by his parents to commemorate the five years they resided in this home. They did many renovations to the interior and his parents knew a custom house portrait would be a meaningful and perfect gift for them!
