Collection: House Portraits

Custom House Portraits — Turn Your Home into Art

"It takes hands to build a house, but only hearts can build a home" (с)

Celebrate the place where memories are made with a hand-painted house portrait that’s personal, timeless, and full of heart.

Every home has a story — whether it’s a cozy Cape cottage, a family home filled with generations of love, or a summer retreat by the ocean. These custom portraits capture the unique charm and character of your home in delicate detail.

Hand-Painted and One-of-a-Kind

Each portrait is created by hand, based on your photos and notes. Special details — a favorite tree, a mailbox, a porch swing — are carefully included to reflect what makes your place truly yours. You can choose between two styles:

Watercolor — for a soft, colorful and painterly look
Ink (Pen & Ink) — for a clean, detailed and timeless black-and-white style

All pieces are painted on archival-quality paper using professional materials.

A Meaningful Gift

House portraits make unforgettable gifts for housewarmings, weddings, anniversaries, or to honor a childhood home or family cottage. They’re perfect when you want to give something deeply personal and heartfelt — especially to someone who "has everything".

Each portrait is carefully gift-wrapped and sealed with a hand-stamped wax seal — making the unboxing feel as special as the art itself.

How It Works

Choose your preferred size and style (watercolor or ink), and send me a few good-quality photos of your house along with any notes about special details you'd like included. I’ll create a pencil sketch and send it to you for approval before moving on to the final piece. Turnaround time is usually 2–4 weeks.
