Philadelphia Row Homes Poster

I got this 12" x 18" poster made to sell at my art show I had at Benna's Cafe in December. It features many of the houses I was commissioned to do throughout 2012. They are now for sale here on my Etsy page. I have also been adding prints for sale in my shop, check em out!

house portrait, sort of

This was the email subject line that I received from one of my first private clients this past year. This nice woman wanted a portrait of her beautiful and spacious back yard in New Jersey. It has lots of plants and trees, a greenhouse, and features her two shaggy pups in the foreground. This was a nice change for just doing a straight up house portrait!
Below are some detail shots you can see more things close up!


Here's a photo with the two dogs playing in the garden.

The Walled Garden

 This piece was commissioned by my Grandfather who lives in England. I've visited this house many a time with my family. It is located in the Cotswolds in the country side, and the house is called The Walled Garden. When I buy my own home in the future, I plan to carry on the English tradition and name it this same way. 
The actual portrait itself is the smallest I've ever done. (8"w x 6"h) because my Grandpa wanted it to fit in a small frame he already had!
