And of course what would a blog be without a little family bragging? This is my darling Hallie. She is now 18months old. Everyone was right, they do grow up so fast. She is a running chattery little girl. Her Daddy and I are just amazed at all the little things that she does that make us fall deeper in love with her everyday.

I wanted to add a few more murals to show a little varity of what I have already done.

"To Sell." My upcoming projects are focusing on retail stores. I am currently working on furniture and canvas paintings to sell in Cornelius, NC. As soon as they are completed I will post them on the blog and give you the stores that are carrying my work. They will be custom paintings with your child's name on them that match your child's bedding or room theme. There is also a line of furniture ranging from chairs, stools, tea trays, or anything that you can paint on. Any and all ideas are welcome!

Here are just a few samples of the portraits that I have done in the last year. The prices change according to the number of people (or animals) in the painting or drawing and how detailed the background is. The portraits have varied in price from $100- $400.

This is a painting I did for a Salon. The owner wanted a decorative piece that would be calm and relaxing as her clients were being pampered.

Suzanne's Morning Room

Here are some photos a mural that I did in a Morning Room. The client wanted to bring the color of the Dining Room throughout the Kitchen into the Morning Room. We added some filigree elements in a similar design style that is found in the furniture that is in the room.
