"S + T, 2010."

PHOTO REPLICA PAINTING GIFT

A newlywed husband surprised his wife with a custom oil painting as a wedding gift — a timeless keepsake of their Colorado vacation. Now, they have a beautiful piece of art to forever remember the moments they shared together.

I offer a free consultation and a complimentary sketch before the painting begins. Throughout the process, I work closely with each customer to create something truly personal — a piece they’ll cherish for years to come.

"Kathryn M."

A SAILBOAT BIRTHDAY GIFT

A couple lovingly restored their sailboat, the Kathryn M — named after the wife — after years of wear and weather. They poured their hearts into bringing it back to life, preparing it for new adventures on the Chesapeake Bay. Just as the boat was ready to return to the water, Kathryn commissioned a custom portrait of the Kathryn M as a surprise birthday gift for her husband. "Now we can share the memories of this sailboat together all year round," says Kathryn.

"LOVE"

50TH ANNIVERSARY PRESENT

To celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary, a customer came to me looking for a meaningful way to show his wife just how much she meant to him. He shared her deep love for purple wild violets and the city of Philadelphia. Together, we brought his vision to life on canvas — blending the iconic Philadelphia LOVE Park sign with a beautiful arrangement of violets surrounding it. It was a joy to create such a personal and thoughtful tribute, and an honor to craft a custom piece inspired by the city of brotherly love

“ANDREW WYETH"Southern Comfort HS 1997

REPLICA PAINTING COMMISSION, CHESTER COUNTY PA

A customer with a deep appreciation for Andrew Wyeth’s work — and a love for white German Shepherds — reached out to commission a custom replica of their favorite painting, Southern Comfort HS 1997.

I created a watercolor version of the piece, carefully replicating the original while adding more vibrant colors to help it stand out in their home. The result was a stunning, personalized interpretation that captured the spirit of Wyeth’s work with a unique twist.

The customer was thrilled to have their own custom version of a beloved painting — a piece that reflects both their style and sentimental connection.
