House Drawings

First Home Drawings - Do you remember that phone call from a family member or friend when they joyously announced they were buying their first new home? Celebrate and validate this important step in life. Ask them for a photo and surprise them with a gift that will be a lasting memory of their first-time joy of home ownership.

Retiring? Leaving the family home and moving to Arizona, Florida or elsewhere? Capture the magic of the family home that is being sold.

Second Homes - You can see our Florida home on this site! Every time I pass this drawing in our family home, I smile and think about fun times past and fun times to come.

Stables - If you are like most stable owners I know, owning your own stable is a dream come true. I recommend taking the additional digital image file option. It only costs $5.00, and you get a digital image you can use over and over on your web site, stationery, flyers and cards!

People

Signed and Numbered Copies - You keep the original. Order two signed, numbered and custom framed copies for the grandparents for just $20.00 each. Photos are definitely nice, but hand-drawn images are magical. Do something a little different for Mother's Day, Father's Day, Holidays or Birthdays this year. Much nicer than another tie or pajama set.

Baby Showers! A gift certificate for a new baby portrait is good for 12 months!

Big Brother or Big Sister Portrait - This addresses a need that is too often overlooked. With all the attention on mom and the "new baby," it is especially important to remember the "older baby." Ask the expecting mom for a current picture of her "older baby." After the shower, have a special ceremony where the "older baby" gets to unwrap the last, special present -- a hand-drawn image of them! Have the entire party and parents hang the special picture in an important place, together.

Horses

Big Win Day - Capture the magic of the "moment in action" to go with the standard ribbon photo pose. Send me the photo, and I'll return a hand-drawn image to hang next to the ribbon.

Equine Mother and Child - They are only foals so long. Capture the moment.
