| All artwork
is hand drawn by the artist. She never produces computer-generated art,
nor is any work subcontracted to other artists. If you are ordering a watercolor
painting, write a short note giving details of color such as "gray-blue
shutters", "dark red door", "yellow flowers along walk", etc.
The art is created from photographs. Take one primary overall photo of the building from the angle you like best. This is the way the picture will be portrayed. Additional photos (details, close-ups, areas hidden by shadows, trees, etc.) are very helpful. Remember, if the artist cannot see it, she cannot draw it! Please see "Photo Do's and Don'ts" at the bottom of this page. |

| If you cannot get the entire building into one photo, take two. But stay in the same spot when you take them, don't walk around. Fill the frame from the left side and then pivot your torso to the right side. Duplicating the center portion is desired. | ||
| Do photo
the building when the sun is shining on the front.
Don't shoot when the front is in deep shadow. Cloudy days are fine if it is light enough. Don't wait for bushes to grow! Landscaping and trees can be shifted, added, eliminated, enlarged, trimmed, whatever you desire. Do shoot in the winter (without snow) if possible. That enables the artist to get much clearer view of the property. Your painting or drawing always shows a spring or summer season. That is, of course, unless you desire a different season. |
