Here are some commissions I have done in the past several months.The goalie of the commissioning father is going to be in the olympics some day. And - she's only in eighth grade! The cats were commissioned for the cats owner - the one on the top right was close to passing over the rainbow bridge. What a wonderful reminder of her four legged friend being outside with her buddy - soaking up the blue sky and fresh air. One of the two pieces done for CASA in Wilkes-Barre to add some meaning and brightness to their newly painted office in Wilkes- Barre.
They said it was well worth waiting till January to receive their Christmas present painting. I have the sneaking suspicion Lucy Lu and Riley Rue are very well cared for.....
He said , " I would like an abstract painting for my new apartment" - We looked at the space and agreed some warm colors, perhaps some squares, and??? were in order. I culled everything I knew about him. Where he lived, worked out, and worked. Knowing his very most favorite musician is Bruce Sprinsteen, I weaved over layers of line, texture and color lines of his most poignant, poetic lyrics. And numbers of cours going up to my ripe age of 49. Here it is shown from studio to above couch.
She said, "the painting was an enormous hit!! Best gift I've ever given John by a landslide." So enjoyed doing these three gorgeous faces looking adoringly at the recipient of the painting!!!
It's always nice when someone takes a picture of a piece they've purchased from me hanging in their home! I seem to be partial, as of late to squares and triptychs* : .*Artists sometimes create a triptych, a series of three panels that are meant to be displayed together. You can use the noun triptych to describe three paintings that are deliberately hung together, as one piece.
When looking for the perfect gift for a loved one or friend, consider commissioning a one-of-a-kind piece of artwork. I gladly accept commission work, and love to create something special for you and or your loved ones. Personalized paintings, dog portraits, house portraits, and hand-painted silks are just some of the many items that make wonderful holiday, birthday, wedding, and anniversary gifts.
