The commission process
How It Works
01
Send Your Photos
Submit a few clear photographs of the house and tell me about any details that are especially important to you.
02
I Review Your House
I review every request before accepting it. This helps me make sure the photographs and house are a good fit for the way I paint.
03
Reserve Your Spot
If I accept the commission, I will contact you directly with next steps and payment information.
04
I Paint Your House
I draw and paint your house individually by hand and contact you when the original artwork is complete.
Submitting a request does not obligate you to purchase and does not guarantee that the commission will be accepted.
Introductory Pilot Pricing
Pilot House Painting Commissions
After sharing some of my house paintings locally, I received much more interest than I expected.
I am opening a very small first round of commissions while I refine the process, understand how long each painting takes, and make sure customers are happy with the finished work. Because of that, I am offering the first few accepted commissions at significantly reduced introductory pricing.
These pilot paintings are the same original physical watercolors, drawn and painted individually by hand, as every commission I take on.
I’m sincerely grateful — and honestly a little thrilled — that so many of you want a painting of your home. If your house ends up on my easel, it will get the same care and attention I’d give my own.
Pilot pricing is based on the commissions I accept, not simply the first people who submit the form.
I will personally review each house and its photographs before deciding whether to accept it for the pilot.

Pilot pricing is available for the first 5 commissions I accept.
Because I received much more interest than expected, submitting this form does not guarantee one of the introductory pilot spots.
If the pilot spots have already been filled when I reach your request, I may contact you about a future commission at my standard pricing. You will always see the price before deciding whether you would like to move forward. There is no obligation to purchase by joining the interest list.
You receive the original physical watercolor painting, not a digital file or reproduction.
If shipping is required, shipping costs can be discussed after the commission is accepted.
By accepting a commission and working with me, you agree that I may share images of the finished painting in my online portfolio. Any names, addresses, or other identifying information are always removed before anything is shared.

About the Artist
I studied painting three decades ago — and aside from doodles, barely touched a brush again until recently. I’ve always loved drawing in pen, and that’s still at the heart of what I do: my paintings are a mix of pen and watercolor, all done by hand. Picking it back up to paint houses came from loving the small architectural and personal details that make one house completely different from another.
I work primarily in pen line and watercolor wash, simplifying some details where it helps the composition while keeping the character of the house recognizable.
Outside the studio, I work in tech as an experience designer, and I’m a Master of Social Work student. I’ve served as a suicide prevention counselor with The Trevor Project, and I’m currently interning with Udruga IKS, an international NGO, where my work spans research, grant writing, and impact analysis, along with supporting volunteers and beneficiaries.
A year ago I moved to the Meridian-Kessler neighborhood of Indianapolis and fell in love with it — the tree-lined streets, the old houses, the friendly neighbors. I only recently thought to offer house paintings as commissions, so this is still a bit experimental — but after sharing a few of my house paintings locally, I received far more interest than I expected.
One quick note: thanks to AI tools, I was able to put this website together quickly! I’m not a commercial business — just someone who loves painting houses and is excited to work with you.
Thank you — truly — to the Meridian-Kessler neighbors who welcomed me so warmly, to the Trevor Project community for the meaningful work we share, and to the Udruga IKS team for their trust and support. Your encouragement is a big part of why I picked the brush back up at all, and I’m genuinely excited to paint for you.
