Description
This is a painting of a family home in New Jersey that I was commissioned to do. After 70 years of occupancy, the 120 year old house is being sold. How fortunate they are to have a friend like the woman who asked me to paint a picture of this charming house, surrounded by lush trees, so that it can be remembered forever. I hope that it will become a familial treasure.
