5 out of 5 starsI couldn't be more pleased with how this turned out! Joe was a dream to work with- he brought the picture of my childhood home to life! And, the customization was the perfect finishing touch. The detail on the drawing is exquisite, and is a keepsake my parents will treasure forever. Thank you thank you!

5 out of 5 starsIf I could give more than 5 stars, I would! Joe perfectly captured the house that my husband and I got married in (after having to cancel our original wedding due to covid), as a gift for our first anniversary. The sketches were beautiful, and working through the details and talking to Joe about it all along the way was an added bonus. He is the sweetest, and an absolute joy to work with. Highly recommend!!!

5 out of 5 starsI couldn’t possibly recommend Joe’s Etsy shop or his artwork more, I am truly in love! From the moment I sent him a picture of my childhood home, he was incredibly sincere, communicative, and inquisitive to ensure he included all pertinent details. He communicated with updates throughout the process, shipped in a timely manner, and packaged the drawing to ensure it would arrive safely in one piece. It is truly better than I could’ve asked for and cannot wait to gift it to my parents. Thank you Joe! 🏡

5 out of 5 starsI am so beyond happy with the drawing Joe did for my parents of our family home. Even though my pictures for him to reference were from boring winter, he was able to capture the beauty of the home as it normally is. Thank you joe!

5 out of 5 starsThis was just perfect. We gave this to my parents as a gift and to say they loved it -- was an understatement. I felt like Joe really understood what we were going for and was so very helpful for the project. What a great gift...

5 out of 5 starsA pleasure to work with. Joe took an insightful and enthusiastic approach to planning the piece, and I really love the finished portrait! It was for my mom, of the house she owned before her recent move to assisted living and she loves it as well! Thank you.

Additional policies and FAQs
Start with a convo(email) to me so I can give you an estimated delivery ( from receipt of photos), answer any questions you may have and instruct you on supplying the photos for reference.
Place your order and make payment through Etsy. When I receive your order, I will let you know how to get the photos to me by email or regular mail.
Within 24 hrs of placing your Etsy order I will contact you to get the process started.
You can mail or email me your photos ( emailed photos should be high resolution for color & detail ). I will let you know when I receive your photos. All photos sent will be returned.
PHOTOS: Your photos should be of the angle & preferred view. A slight angle showing the full front and a little of either side is better than a straight on view. A full view of the home in 1 photo is preferred. You can take the picture as far back as possible and move closer for the detail shots. Detail photos can be of anything which is important that can not be seen clearly in the main angle photo. Windows, doors, home detail etc. Make sure the sun is on the house for shading & correct color. Avoid taking photos at midday because the sun is directly on top of the home and the front is usually in shadow and dark. Do not take photos at days end. Do not photograph on an overcast day the colors will be washed out.
You may also include additional instructions on what to add or eliminate( telephone poles, cars, neighbors home etc. I can create the artwork in the season of your choice. When creating a color piece it's best if you indicate the colors you see in the photos because everyone sees color differently ( especially on different monitors and printers) We will work together thru the creative process to create a lasting memory.
