Watercolor portrait of the Simmons Hanly Conroy building
Just completed on February 9th… a 16″x 22″ watercolor portrait of the Simmons Hanly Conroy building, the headquarters of law firm by the same name located in Alton, Illinois. This artwork was commissioned by the American Cancer Society to be given to the business owner in thanks and recognition for him being a major supporter and sponsor of the annual Mardi Gras Ball fundraiser to be held on February 17th. The artwork will be presented to him the night of the event, and I hope he will be surprised and very pleased.

Here’s the newest, just completed on January 27th …. a 10″ x 15″ watercolor of a spacious rural home in Troy, Missouri overlooking a lake. The artwork depicts the rear of the home and it’s large deck, including outdoor furniture, decorative signage and even a dartboard! There is also a scarecrow by the campfire area — a special request and a nice personal touch!

Just completed on January 16th… a custom-sized 9″ x 14″ watercolor portrait of a sprawling, attractive ranch in Walnut Creek, California. This portrait was commissioned by a returning client whose family had recently moved to Pennsylvania due to a wonderful new job offer there for him. He wanted his wife and young family to have a nice keepsake of their former home, and I hope this custom house portrait will be a great reminder of the many happy times they shared at this residence. Best Wishes to them in their new house and neighborhood, and congratulations to Phil, the father, on his awesome new position!

Here’s the very first house portrait of 2015, just completed on January 2nd…. an 8″ x 10″ watercolor of a darling white frame home in Illinois! Though the photo I worked from was taken in the winter, I portrayed the homeowner’s landscape in full bloom — all her favorite flowers and trees are depicted! The artwork also includes the owner’s beloved orange cat — a sweet personal touch! This portrait was commissioned by a very thoughtful daughter and son for a gift to their mother, and I hope the recipent will be delighted with her custom house portrait — I enjoyed portraying her home for her!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
