Minneapolis MN Home Portrait
Artist
Hanne Lore Koehler
Medium
Painting - Watercolor
Description
I was commissioned to paint this beautiful home in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The young couple sent me a few winter photos to use as reference for a winter watercolor painting of their former home in northern United States after they had moved to a new home in the warm southern climate of Shreveport Louisiana. What a wonderful reminder of their memories up north. Send art cards of your home in winter beauty as personal Christmas greeting cards.
In the photo that I used as reference for this painting, both front doors were obscured by the magnificent large trees. Using the other photos as reference, I was able to choose a different perspective point of view that would place the trees between the doors and windows yet maintain the general atmosphere and lighting with shadows of the first photo.
Thank you to the hosts of the following groups for the honor of featuring my commissioned house portrait painting. I appreciate your kind support and promotion!

Wonderful winter scene worth seeing once again, Hanne. You have been such a positive influence on me, motivating me to do several architectural paintings for the first time in decades!........Fav / like

Superbly rendered winter scene, Hanne! The long blue shadows, reflected across the snow, really gives this scene a sense of depth and cold. The detail of snow dropping from tree tops, and being caught in a brief crosswind, animates this painting in a special way! L&F
