A Michigan House Portrait for a New Home in Pennsylvania

Watercolor House Portrait in Ferndale, Michigan
Watercolor portrait of a house in Ferndale, Michigan with reference photos that inspired the painting.

Relocating to another state can make anyone nostalgic for the home they're leaving behind and all the wonderful memories created there with friends and family. As this client prepared to move their family from Ferndale, Michigan to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania this spring, they commissioned me to paint a watercolor portrait of the home they would miss so dearly.


"Communication was amazing. Jenny was able to use a couple of photos to make the best depiction of my home."

The garden was a beloved part of the property, however it was not yet in bloom at the time. Luckily my client had some photos from the previous year and I was able to sketch all the elements together into the final illustration. The finished portrait now hangs in the home office of their new house, a cherished memento of a special place where they once lived.
