House Portraits

House Portraits

Original paintings of your cherished homes

A home is never just bricks and mortar. It’s where life happens — first steps, family gatherings, quiet moments, and memories that stay with us long after the door has closed for the last time.

I create hand-painted house portraits that celebrate the places that matter most to you. Each painting is made with care and attention, capturing not just the building itself but the feeling of home.

House portraits make thoughtful gifts for new homeowners, anniversaries, retirements, or as a way to remember a much-loved family home.


Commissioning a House Portrait

You can commission a house portrait in one of two ways:

Painted from photographs

Most house portraits are painted from photographs. You can send me a few clear images of your home, taken from slightly different angles if possible. From these, I will create a detailed and carefully composed painting, adjusting light, colour and small details to present your home at its very best.

If you’re unsure which photos to use, I’m always happy to advise.


Live painting at your home

For a truly special experience, I also offer live, on-site house painting.

I come to your home and paint from life, capturing the atmosphere and character of the property as it sits in its surroundings. This option is particularly popular for milestone occasions, celebrations, or as a memorable gift.

Live painting is available by arrangement and is subject to location and weather conditions.
