How do you capture a feeling?

The spontaneous joy and tender moments of childhood. The goofy ebullience or quiet loyalty of a beloved pet. The familiar comfort and quiet nostalgia of a place called home.

Commission an original watercolor painting inspired by your photographs. Each piece is thoughtfully painted by hand, capturing not just a likeness, but the spirit, personality, and feeling that make your subject special.

The Process

01. Share Your Photo

Choose a favorite photograph and tell me a little about what you'd like captured. Your photo will serve as the starting point for your painting.

02. Review Your Sketch

Before picking up my brushes, I'll create an initial pencil sketch to establish the composition and capture the essential details of your subject. You'll have a chance to review and approve the sketch before I begin painting.

03. Painted by Hand, Made to Keep

Once your sketch is approved, I'll bring your painting to life in watercolor, adding the layers, details, and little nuances that make each piece unique. Your original artwork will be carefully packaged and mailed directly to your door, ready to frame.

The Investment

Each painting is an original, one-of-a-kind work of art, thoughtfully created by hand and made to be cherished for years to come.

Commissions begin at $450 for a 5 × 7" unframed painting, with pricing increasing based on size and design complexity. Once I have a better understanding of your vision, you'll receive a personalized quote by email before any work begins.
