Coupla new guys.
I just painted these guys for some sweet little girls.
Maeve’s favorite colors are green & pink. Mina’s are grey and hot pink. And you’ll never guess their favorite animals!…

Semi-Girly Owl Triptych
Custom Artwork with a Paisley Print
These paisley paintings were done for a little lady’s room inspired by the lampshade her Mom bought at PBK from the Tera Paisley Collection.
All of the designs mimic the style of the fabric but are completely original to match the overall color-scheme of bright pinks, purples, greens and blues in her room.

Owls for a Fish
Happy Critters Custom Playground Painting
Included in the painting are Vivan’s favorite stuffed animals, herself and of course, a girl’s best friend, her dog, Milo.
Vivan wasn’t home to see the painting in person when I dropped it off but luckily her Mom shot me this adorable play-by-play of when she first saw it:
“I wanted to let you know about Vivian’s reaction when she first saw your painting. She saw it as soon as she walked into her room yesterday afternoon, and did a total double-take. Then she pointed at Dolly in the picture and said her name, and went to grab the actual Dolly from her toy bin so she could hold her just like she is in the picture. Then she pointed at each of her “friends” in the picture and named them, and also pointed out Milo. I asked her if she liked the picture, and she said, “Yesssss!””
Reactions like that make this job even sweeter, if that’s possible.
And, as if that weren’t enough, piggy-backed on top of all that sweetness was this painting also done for Vivian commissioned by the original word-of-mouth advertiser, the customer I painted Ryan’s Safari for. Little V is a second generation Chinese-American, this is her birth animal, the tiger and her name written in Chinese characters. It was painted to coordinate-with but not necessarily match the playground painting in order to keep the room from looking too “theme-y” (which is definitely a word) and topped off with a distressed white frame.
Thanks for stopping by and please don’t hesitate to contact me with questions if you’d like your own custom nursery artwork!

This painting was designed to grow with Baby Ryan- being young enough to be appropriate for a nursery and also bright enough to be able to transition easily into a toddler’s room. Email me if you’d like a painting made for your little one or if you have questions about price, sizing or anything else. All questions are welcome.
