House Painting

9 years ago

I saw the most darling paintings of houses at a Homes Tour in early December. Each house had a six inch square canvas painting of their home. I contacted the painter and commissioned him to do a painting of our house and our daughter's. It was all done form photographs. I sent him this picture of our house, and then I picked up the Monday before Christmas, the painting. The price was very reasonable.

Nice. On one of our area holiday house tours, an artist does a sketch of their house as a thank you for participating. Not oils or acrylic, but more like pencil with water color...really nice.

Annie Deighnaugh, our HPA did that as well for many years. A very talented high school student would draw the pictures and they were used in the brochure. The originals were gifted to the Home Owners. A nice tradition that has since went by the wayside. I think they need to revive it!

grapefruit1_ar, I would be happy to. And he DOES work from photos. I do not know if he mails or not, but . . . s_binam@yahoo.com And please tell him that you got the information from me. There is nothing in it from me, but I would like for him to learn that it was from my posts, etc. TMIA

Hi Martha. I tried the email that you provided but it bounced right back. I double checked that I used the correct address. Could I have done something wrong? Thanks!

Your house picture is just lovely!

I hope it is okay to share this sweet painting of our former home done by DS new fiancee from photographs, she has never been to this home where he grew up. What is so precious to us is that there is an old family story about DS when he was 13 and Dad was away, he backed the car (a tricked out denim Gremlin) out of the garage and then as he tried to get back in, he hit the garage door and ran across the street to his friend's Dad to ask where could he buy a new garage door before Dad got home. The house was different back in the day when he was 13, there was no front porch and a quite different color scheme and landscaping but its a true family heirloom to DS!
