Children's Playroom

I was commissioned to paint this children’s playroom with a Beatrix Potter, Peter Rabbit theme. The room was quite large so it allowed me to paint most of the illustrations completely around the room, to tell the whole story. It was so much fun to see the expressions of the children after finishing the project. I love the palette of Beatrix Potter, it’s soft and comfortable and it can lend itself to either little girls or boys. Besides… there are many stories that can be painted, if you just use ones imagination.

Restaurant Mural

This restaurant was a fun for me! From start to finish it took me about two weeks to complete. The owner wanted me to paint the scene in a “Grant Wood” style, which was a fun challenge. Everything was painted in non-toxic water based acrylic paint.  Each blade of the wheat was painstakingly brushed, to create a 3 dimensional realistic look. My client was happy with the over all look, I even got a write up in the local paper!

Modern Home

The couple that owned this new age contemporary home were looking for a modern twist on a Picasso classic. I chose to paint my version of “The Dream” and complimented the color scheme with an impressionistic cubism pattern above the bar area. It is a great room for entertaining and the artwork gives a very hip modern feel.
