Watercolor House Portrait of Client’s Childhood Home
This house portrait was a joy and honor to create! The recipient, Marlene, is a past client who had ordered a portrait for her adult daughter Julie and her family several years ago, and recently Julie ordered this 8″ x 10″ watercolor portrait for her for a Christmas gift! This brick residence in St. Louis, Missouri had been Marlene’s childhood home many years ago and there are many sweet memories. I’ve had hundreds of clients commission house portraits from me over the past 22 years, and I can honestly say that Marlene is one of my favorites. Her charming personality and joy for life are memorable, and I was delighted to create this home portrait for her!
Watercolor Portrait of Home at the Lake of the Ozarks
This newly completed 9″ x 15″ watercolor painting of a home at the Lake of the Ozarks, Missouri is the result of a Gift Certificate thoughtful friends gave to the homeowners who were moving to Texas. The selection of a Gift Certificate gave the recipients, Julie B. and her husband the opportunity to work with me directly and give input for their wishes for the portrayal of their home and landscape — which was so beautiful in full bloom!
