photographing your special place . . .
Choosing the perfect artwork to complement your home can be a daunting task
but I will guide you step by step through the whole process.
I will blend three key elements together:
Your 'happy place'
The interior style and feel of your home
My artists eye and oil paints
By taking the time to understand why a place is so special to you, I can capture its essence, and create a painting that stirs your emotions.
This is how it works.
1. I can recommend a suitable placement, size and colour palette that works in harmony with your home.
2. Spend time with you at your happy place, to photograph, sketch and soak in all its detail and overall emotion. Using this research I will develop a choice of three compositions.
3. Transform your chosen composition into your personal painting, with progress photos along the way to ensure you are delighted with the finished art work.
"Your painting will add the finishing touch to your treasured home,
keeping your memories alive and in view always,
which I truly hope will make you smile a little each day"
