Custom House Portraits by Michelle

Our Work | April 18, 2013

Buying a home can be a huge step in life. It can make you feel somehow grounded and extremely hopeful at the same time. Grounded in a sense of permanence and hopeful for a fresh start and, if you’re like me, a brand new design to life with a fresh palette and a clean canvas.
It takes time to decorate a home just the way you want it and to track down artwork that fits your style and budget. There’s something so special about buying art that’s personal and seeing it every day in your home. Personalized art also makes for an exceptional one-of-a-kind gift for someone you love. That’s why I wanted to share with you the artwork of watercolor painter Michelle Schneider. Her colorful and whimsical style is both creative and eye-catching and makes for a beautiful addition to any room in your home.

I had her paint an 8×10″ house portrait as a gift for my friend. I can’t wait to give it to her! Michelle made this video to show the process of the portrait.

Some people are seriously so talented!

Here is how my friend’s house turned out!
I have spent many hours in my friend’s front yard, on her front steps and in her home so this painting is special to me too. It captures the happy feeling that I have every time I enter her home. 
Michelle doesn’t just create pieces she loves she creates art that is special to people and tells a story. If you want to see what I mean you have to read this precious story
