house portraits

Is there anyone here who has ordered a house portrait from someone you found online? I haven't found any good local options, and I'm looking at some sources online--just wondering if anyone has an artist to recommend. THANKS!

Re: house portraits

  • Depending on what you have in mind, you may want to just play with a photo you like in photshop, or a similar program. You'll spend very little on the "art" and you can have more control over the color/look/style of the end result.

     Most photo editing softwares will have a feature that will turn a photo into an oil paint style, or a charcoal sketch, or a hand drawing.  Play with it, save the one you like best, and print it out wherever you order photos.

    Splurge on the frame.

  • Bryn actually paints houses, I am not sure how often she does them or if she takes requests but she came to mind when I saw your post. 
  • I love the house portraits I've seen done by pve designs.

    There are more on her blog, too.

    Murphy - This post is SIX years old!  Please don't pull up ancient posts.  Especially to advertise your business!  Which, by the way, is against the TOS.  

    @NestCayla - I've flagged lots of vendors and spam.  I've paged you.  Yet, this crap never seems to be removed from the boards.  It's not enjoyable to visit these forums when this is what you see and no one on the staff cares to remove it.
