Art for Your Life from Your Life

Built space shapes our human experience. A painting brings those experiences into their home. We all have specific places (outdoors, indoors, public, private…) that hold an important memory for us.

When I was a child I wanted to be an architect. Church architecture was the theme of the paintings in my thesis exhibit for my Master of Fine Arts Degree in Painting. Since then I been joyfully working  to create tangible memories for people like you of the places in which you have built your life.  I have created paintings for dozens of people like you over the years and I love creating art from your life for your life. 

We all have places that hold an important memory for us. What places hold your memories? Commission me to create a painting that tells your story. A carefully crafted original painting can bring that place home with you forever. Original artwork is one of the most unique gifts you can give.

“We all have places that hold an important memory for us. What places hold your memories?”

The process of creating your painting is truly a collaboration. Although it’s true that I hold the paintbrush, I could not do it without the inspiration and vision which you provide! I ask for feedback along the way and through it all we develop a relationship.

I carefully sketch out a composition for each painting. I check and re-check the proportions and measurements to ensure that what I create matches your memory. I ask for your feedback on the layout and composition to be sure it aligns with your vision. Whether a watercolor or an oil painting, there are several layers of paint applied to each image over several days – several weeks if the painting is larger. The process can’t be rushed, and so there are only a limited number of commission spots available each season.

Art from your life, for your life. Capture the character of the places from your life with an original drawing or painting.
