My Services

Every creative project starts a little differently. Maybe you’re a realtor looking for a thoughtful closing gift. Someone who wants a painting of a place that means something to you. Maybe you’re planning something big, or maybe you just love pretty paper. Whatever brought you here, I offer paintings, photography, and custom stationery with a personal, hands-on touch.

Made with intent, made with heart, and made just for you.

Painted Keepsakes

Painted Keepsakes

Watercolor painting of a stone house with a sloped roof, surrounded by green trees and plants, with a driveway in front and a small gate to the right, framed in wood.

Original artwork, made just for you.

I create custom paintings using oil pastels or watercolor, based on reference photos you provide.

Lately, much of my work has come from realtors commissioning house portraits as closing gifts for their clients. These paintings celebrate the space their clients are leaving or entering, turning a fleeting moment into something tangible and heartfelt. With just a listing link or a photo, I’ll find the most thoughtful perspective (often in a more colorful season!) and bring it to life.

Here’s what you can expect:

  • Your choice of oil pastel or watercolor

  • Standard sizes: 5x7, 8x10, or 11x14

  • I work from a photo or listing link, and help you select the best view

  • All paintings will be matted & framed in a wood frame (as pictured above)

  • Turnaround time is typically 2–3 weeks

Photography

Quiet, candid storytelling through the lens.

Photography was one of my first creative loves, and I still take on a limited number of sessions when the fit feels right. My style leans natural and candid, capturing softness, stillness, and all the little moments in between.

Recent sessions include maternity portraits, intimate weddings, and quiet boudoir.

Stationery & Illustration

Paper goods with personality.

From wedding invitations and custom cards to art prints and one-off illustrations, I offer small-batch stationery design with a personal touch. Think: botanical line drawings, vintage-inspired elements, and hand-done details that feel special. I handle everything from design to layout, and I can recommend printing options or deliver files ready to go.
