Reference Photo
Every Piece starts with a few photos. Elements are altered to create the best composition. Small things can be changed such as the colour of a person's shirt or the placement of their hand. Big things can also be changed like placing two people together from different pictures or changing the season or the background. In every case the better the reference photos the better the results!

House Portraits - Places
Some homes become part of our story.
A custom watercolor house portrait captures the character of a place and the memories connected to it—from the front door that welcomed family and friends to the garden carefully tended over the years.
Whether you're celebrating a first home, preserving a family cottage, marking a move, or searching for a meaningful gift, a house portrait becomes a lasting keepsake.

Little Houses
Some houses hold the stories of an entire family.
Created from an original hand-carved linocut, these Little Houses prints celebrate the places that shaped us—the family home, a beloved cottage, a first house, or a home that remains close to the heart long after we've left it.
Because the artwork is printed as an edition, multiple family members can each have a copy of the same meaningful place. They make thoughtful gifts for siblings, parents, children, or anyone who shares a connection to a home filled with memories.
A simple and affordable way to honour a place that continues to matter.
