A Christmas Commission




A friend whose family has owned this property 
in Monticello, SC for over 200 years
asked me to paint a picture of the barn.
We had prints made of the original for 
Christmas gifts for her brothers!! 
This was a very special commission for me!

12" x 9" watercolor on Arches paper

The Best Kind of Commission


I was asked to do this pet portrait by a friend
to be given as a gift to the owner!  
Sweet puppy!
And the owner was quite pleased...which made me happy!!
He actually reminds me of my "Henry!"
