A wonderful closing gift for your clients, a portrait of their home.

When we create the House Portraits, one of the most difficult parts is to paint the driveways. So we always add dappled light to them to create a level of interest to the painting. And I LOVE how this one turned out.

Enjoy the painting!

I've always liked the idea of a closing gift, but never really found myself doing it. Yet the portrait of a home, that is pretty novel, usually I see picture, aerial or something of the sort.

It really does add a lot, I never mastered painting anywhere close to this skill. Have a great week!

Nice! These are clearly digital in nature (Photoshop? On an iPad?). Do you make these yourself, or do you have someone else make them and sign your name?

Hi there Suzanne, yes we create them digitally using Photoshop and 3 other progams to put it all together. And we make them here in the studio :-)
