Another place I haven't been but have longed to go. Wanted to capture the awe of seeing the place you've imagined for the first time.

I wasn't actually here, but after painting it I feel as if I were! My brother-in-law texted a pic of he and my sister standing in this spot and I was instantly in love with it.

My memories of Italy are magical. So much history and beauty.

I will always remember the glowing beauty of standing in this spot in Rome under the stars.

I once spent a weekend alone in NYC after being there for work during the week. I did touristy things like took a trip to Ellis Island and looked up my Grandfather. Some of my favorite memories!

This was commissioned by a friend for her grandparents. I finished it on Christmas Eve, and delivered it wrapped to this house, on that evening. It was surreal becoming one of the people I'd been painting. : )

My Aunt commissioned me to paint my Grandmother's house, the house she grew up in. Was a very heartwarming project, miss going there so much. 

Some more fun paintings I did of the shops on Mackinac. Nothing like strolling around, eating fudge, listening to the horses go by : )
