Watercolor Family and Personal Portraits
Custom Watercolor Family Portrait – A Hand-Painted Celebration of Togetherness
Capture the heart of your family with a custom watercolor portrait—painted entirely by hand from your favorite photo. Whether it’s a casual backyard snapshot or a formal family gathering, each painting is created with soft, expressive brushstrokes and thoughtful detail to reflect your family’s unique connection.
Using professional-grade watercolors on 100% cotton archival paper, I create each portrait to feel warm, personal, and full of life. A meaningful gift for holidays, reunions, anniversaries, or simply celebrating everyday moments that mean everything.
Note:
For portraits featuring four or more people, only larger sizes (11” x 14” and up) are available to ensure enough space for detail and composition.

How It Works:
1. Place Your Order:
Send your favorite photo(s) of your family.
2. Sketch Approval:
You’ll receive a pencil sketch preview to review and request any edits before painting begins.
3. Painting Begins:
I hand-paint your portrait, carefully capturing each personality and the feeling of being together.
4. Final Approval:
You’ll receive a photo of the completed painting for your approval before it ships.
5. Carefully Delivered:
Your artwork is securely packaged—framed or unframed—and shipped ready to gift or display.
(I don’t ship unless you’re happy with it.)

Hi! Thank you for stopping by!
My name is Jane and I’m a watercolor artist based in both New York and Northern California (Bay Area).
I’ve been drawing and painting for as long as I can remember. My first interaction with watercolors happened when I was a kid, and it was love from first brush stroke. Later, I graduated from a four-year program at art school and made it through painting a lot of wax pears, apples, and a gypsum skull we called George.

I ended up taking a different career path right after art school and only painted as a hobby every now and then. But when everyone’s favorite virus turned the world upside down in 2020, I decided that it was time to come back to what I truly love. While everyone else was baking bread, I bought myself a set of watercolors. My first art store was dreamed up at a kitchen island in a tiny New York apartment. And that’s how it all began.
And now I am here excited and honored that you are considering me for painting something very special for you!
My work is all about capturing what you hold most dear—weddings and wedding venues, engagements, loved ones, pets, and the place you call home. With every painting, I strive to create something that makes you smile and takes you back to your most treasured moments.
Alongside studio commissions, I also paint live at weddings and other events, capturing the magic of the moment as it unfolds. It’s an experience that makes your special day even more memorable.
