When you’ve lived in the same house for 65 years, every detail holds a story. That’s why this client wanted to surprise her in-laws with something more meaningful than the usual gift.
She secretly gathered photos—some snapped under the pretense of “just checking out the landscaping,” one even pulled from Google Maps—so I could piece together a full picture of the red ranch-style home in Manchester, Connecticut.
The result? A custom watercolor portrait that captures the place where a lifetime of memories has unfolded. As my client put it:
"It is so perfect! Can't wait to gift it to my in-laws!! Thank you!!"
Thoughtful, personal, and completely one-of-a-kind—turns out the secret to impressing your in-laws might just be a painting of the home they’ve built together.
