First Custom House Portrait of 2026!
This first custom house portrait of 2026 depicts a large, older home in Saint Louis, Missouri with lots of great character. The 9″ x 12″ watercolor was commissioned by my client as a Christmas holiday gift to his wife — a very thoughtful thing to do! The artwork shows the intricate patterns of the brickwork and limestone exterior and was so interesting to depict! The portrayal of the lamp post with street sign, flag of Saint Louis, and two patio chairs on the front porch will be parts of their fond memories living in this home.
If you would like a home portrayed for yourself or a loved one, or have questions, you can message me here. I hope to work with you in this year ahead to create a beautiful house portrait you will be proud to own or give as a gift to someone special!

The Last House Portrait for Christmas 2025
This watercolor is the last house portrait for Christmas 2025! The 8″ x 12″ artwork depicts a family’s home in Kirkwood, Missouri and will be a gift from my client Kate, to her husband. Special touches are the Mary statue in the front garden, and the tree swing! They just moved here two months ago and this will be their first Christmas in their new home — what an exciting time for them! I hope they and their family enjoy many happy years in this beautiful residence!
