Individualised and personalised portraits of your lovely dwelling. We love and cherish our homes so much and these make beautiful gifts for ourselves, our loved ones, and also as housewarming gifts and for special celebrations. These paintings are all folksy and hand painted, with a focus on warmth and character. Our home really is our castle and it is the little tell tale signs in the detail that celebrate who we are. These are not architectural drawings of houses that focus on literal specifications, I paint homes that breathe with joy and love because you live there.
All portraits come in various sizes depending on detail and style of house. This medium size is for a gouache painting on A4 paper and mounted upon delivery. Frame not supplied. Please select options if you would like any humans, pets and a small garden. Each subject costs £10. If you would like multiple subjects with a large garden, it would be better value to go with the large portrait.
For me, painting a house is like painting a part of your unfolding story. Our home really is our castle and it is the little tell tale signs in the detail that celebrate who we are. These are not architectural drawings that focus on literal specifications , I paint houses so they breathe with joy and love because you live there. All these houses are stand alone, so, if you live on a street, I will only paint your house, if you would like a full and larger painting, please see House Portrait Plus option.
If the portrait is a gift, please allow for plenty of time, especially around Christmas time and let me know your deadline if it is a gift any for any other occasion.
When commissioning for a portrait, it is important you discuss what you want from the painting. Please make sure you have clear photographs/jpegs to send in when requested. The photographs should not have any obstacles, such as cars parked in front, as they would obscure the vision. The whole house needs to be in view, the more visual information, the better. If you are local, I will be able to see your home and take my own photos.
