PRESERVE YOUR HOME IN A DRAWING OR PAINTING
Commission a pen and ink or a watercolor and ink portrait of your home, garden, apartment building or office building. Home portraits make unique gifts for special occasions such as weddings, anniversaries, house-warmings, or 'just because." Couples sometimes have a special fondness for the first home they lived in, or the home in which they were raised. In addition, old buildings on the National Historical Register should be preserved for posterity by having their images drawn and framed
Dr. Mary Ann Stafford has drawn and painted all her life. She taught high school art for sixteen years, and in retirement, still teaches drawing and painting throughout Arkansas. She delights in drawing architecture, especially old Queen Anne Victorian houses. Just send Mary Ann several photos of your home or building, and she will complete a beautiful drawing/painting in 2-3 weeks. If local, Mary Ann will go by the structure to take her own digital photos. Costs range from $275. for 11 x 14" to $425. for an 18 x 24" work. The artwork can be pen and ink alone, or pen and ink with watercolor overlay.
Periodically, this blog will show examples of her drawings/paintings, as well as some works in progress. Keep checking to see the latest examples. Contact her if you'd like to have a commissioned work at pastelanne@sbcglobal.net.
