A California Corner Office, but Make it Watercolor

If you’re still gifting small business owners with inspirational quote calendars, we need to talk!

This California corner office proves you don’t need coastal views or wrought-iron balconies to make a building worth painting. Between the palm trees (a rare treat for this Michigan artist), the corner perspective, and the streetlight the client specifically requested, it turned into the kind of scene that makes you want to sit on that little bench and people-watch.

I love when clients think outside the box and choose to gift something that feels personal to the business owner — even if it’s “just” the office. A hand-painted watercolor portrait turns any workplace, no matter how ordinary, into something warm, meaningful, and display-worthy.
