~Gifts~
Painting and sculpture are my preferred mediums but I do delve into other artistic forms of expression. Talk with me if you are looking for printed or engraved items. I can also make magnets and buttons with your preferred images. Here are some examples along with samplings of painted hearts for meaningful occasions.
Gifts of the Heart
For the moments that matter most.
Each “Gift of the Heart” is a custom, hand-painted piece designed to honor love, resilience, and connection. Drawing on decades of professional counseling experience, I work with care and deep empathy to translate your most meaningful memories, phrases, and milestones into a lasting work of art.
Whether celebrating a wedding, anniversary, birth, or Valentine’s Day , or honoring a journey through illness, endurance, or grief , these hearts are created to hold both joy and tenderness with equal respect.
More than a gift, each heart becomes a visual legacy of love. Please contact me and we can discuss what I can do to make this heart a meaningful keepsake. Each heart is unique and custom made. Some examples are pictured below.
I made this heart for my husband for Valentine’s Day. He loved it so much he had it framed. This inspired me to make personalized hearts for others.
Welcoming a newborn into the world.
This heart honors a love of over 61 years. It was designed by a collaborative effort that gave me the privilege of capturing their lives with words and images.
All hearts are custom designed and personalized. This is a grief heart that can be customized and redesigned.
Remembering a dear friend who crossed the Rainbow Bridge.
Heart for many occasions.
All hearts are custom made and hand painted. No two are the same. I will design the heart after talking with you about your experience, the occasion, and learning more about what is important to capture. I aim to paint your memories, experiences, thoughts and feelings. Please contact me for more information.
