The Perfect Gift: A Watercolor Painting
A commissioned watercolor painting allows you to give a one-of-a-kind present that celebrates the recipient's interests, memories, or even their beloved pet!
Here are some inspiring ideas to get you started:
From Photo to Painting: Can't decide between a photo gift or a painting? Why not have both? Commission a watercolor painting of a cherished photo. This could be a childhood home, a favorite vacation spot, or a special moment from their lives. It can be something super silly, too! Watercolor adds a touch of softness and whimsy, transforming a photograph into a treasured piece of art.
Portrait of a Pet: Surprise them with a watercolor portrait of their beloved pet. These are always special!
The Places They Love: Does your recipient dream of faraway travels? Capture their wanderlust with a watercolor painting of a place they have been and loved. This could be a landscape, cityscape, etc. This will spark memories of past adventures and ignite their desire for future trips.
Blooming with Beauty: Flowers are a classic gift, but a watercolor painting of their favorites elevates it to a whole new level. Perhaps it's a bouquet from their wedding day, the vibrant blooms from their garden, or the delicate wildflowers they cherish.
A House Portrait: This is my most popular commission! House portraits are a great housewarming gift for someone who has recently purchased a home or moving out of a home. Or, perhaps someone isn’t attached to any homes but has special memories associated with a school building, work place, or their wedding venue.
Birth Flowers: Commission a painting of the birth flowers of a family, group of best friends, or grandchildren. Grandmoms especially love these :)
Remember, a commissioned watercolor painting is the perfect gift that is guaranteed to be loved. The recipient will be sure to cherish the thoughtfulness behind the handmade present.
