Interesting and artistic house!
My birthday was this past weekend, and a good friend shared this photograph of a cake decorated in the design of a home on my Facebook page — she knew I would appreciate it! The cake designer/decorator did an amazing job — it’s way to pretty to eat! Notice the charming details — this cake took many hours to create and the decorator is a true and very talented artist. I hope whoever it was made for was thrilled!
Watercolor portrait of Wisconsin vacation home
Just completed on November 29th… a 12″ x 16″ watercolor portrait of a spacious vacation home in Wisconsin. This property features a large multi depth deck that is perfect for entertaining guests and enjoying the view of the lake. A request was made to show two white adirondack chairs on the front lawn, and they are a nice personal touch. This custom house portrait will be a gift to the owners, and I hope they will be pleased!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING DAY!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING FROM MY HOUSE TO YOURS!
I wish you a day filed with gratitude, good food, and love and laughter with family and friends! I hope you enjoy every minute, and create many wonderful memories with those you love! I also want to take this opportunity to express my thanks to all who have ordered a house portrait this year, and to all who enjoy seeing my artwork — I appreciate your support! “Thank You” with all my heart, and may God bless you and yours!

Donations to three fundraising events
What an eventful weekend it was! There were fundraisers to benefit three organizations I care about… on November 20th was “Jan’s Party” to benefit RIDE ON ST. LOUIS, and on November 21st was the “I’ll Be Home For Christmas Gala” to benefit BISHOP DUBOURG HIGH SCHOOL , and also the “Speakeasy Soiree” sponsored by the Northwest Chamber of Commerce to benefit GREATER ST. LOUIS HONOR FLIGHT. All three events had Silent Auctions, and for each I donated a Gift Certificate for a 9″ x 12″ Watercolor House Portrait valued at $400, and I was happy to have the opportunity to help them reach their fundraising goals for the evening! Congratulations to all three winners of the Gift Certificates, and to all those who will benefit from the funds raised! Many disabled children and adults, high school students, and U.S. WWII Veterans will be helped by the generosity and dedication of so many people!
Watercolor portrait of lovely Alabama home — again!
Just finished on November 17th … another 9″ x 12″ watercolor portrait of a property I had already portrayed last July — an older home in Hartford, Alabama with lovely Southern charm that had been in the family for many years and recently sold. The sister of a past customer saw the watercolor home portrait I had done , and wished to have original artwork also for herself and her family as a keepsake of the childhood home, and I was honored to provide it for her. It makes me glad to know that my artwork gives meaning and touches hearts in such a good way and I trust the custom house portrait brings her and her family many wonderful memories!
