Watercolor Portrait of The Treehouse Spa
What a perfect location for a spa!
On December 21, the finishing touches were put on this final house portrait of the year — an 11″ x 14″ watercolor painting of a truly unique, 2 -story wooden shingle property in O’Fallon, Missouri that will be the location of The Treehouse Spa. The building actually incorporates the large trees for structural support, hence the name! The owner, David Stuehmeyer, a licensed massage therapist, will be opening his business in a few weeks offering therapeutic massages in this tranquil, wooded setting surrounded by the beauty of nature — it’s such an ideal place! His clients are sure to have a relaxing and wonderful experience– sign me up! A very thoughtful lady friend of David’s commissioned the artwork in anticipation of him opening his business soon, and I hope he will be excited to display it in his treehouse office!
Best wishes to David as he embarks on what I trust will be a very successful business!

Watercolor Painting of Ladue, Missouri Home
Completed on December 6, this 9″ x 12″ watercolor painting portrays a lovely property in Ladue, Missouri.

This custom house portrait will be a nice addition to her family’s new home and a sweet reminder of the years they lived there!
Christmas Greeting Card With Family’s Home

The Christmas holiday greeting cards are beginning to arrive!
If you’re like me, you love seeing the beautiful and whimsical holiday greeting cards from dear family and friends and the warm feelings it brings to your heart. For those that would like a unique greeting card, consider doing what one of my clients recently did with the original watercolor artwork I created of his family’s home after granting him permission to reproduce the image. I was delighted to receive the 5″ x 7″ finished card in the mail a few days ago and especially appreciated the message on the inside. Special thanks to Oliver and Lynda for letting me know how much my artwork meant to them and their family! If you have a project in mind for a seasonal greeting card, stationary, note cards, or other event, call me at 314-892-9221 to discuss.
