Memories shouldn't be stored away in a box or closet. The more you see them, the more you can remember! This piece showcases a 22 year girl's dance costume, tutu and all! The costume BECOMES PART OF THE PAINTING, creating dimension, texture and depth.

(This particular example is a custom piece, one of a kind, not for sale. All pricing and shipping on this posting reflects estimate pricing for a similar piece in size and complexity. Pricing varies.)

This piece is 22" x 28".

I accept CUSTOM work. First, you choose your special item. Then you TRUST ME to make it into something beautiful (of course, after we have a conversation or two!). I can do all kinds of things!

• Dance costumes (yes, even a tutu!)
• Ballet Slippers
• Christening gowns
• Wedding veils and garters
• Baby's coming home outfit
• Sports jerseys and t-shirts (like t-ball uniforms!)
• Gloves
• Scarves and Handkerchiefs
• ALMOST ANYTHING fabric that has meaning, I can do!

PLEASE CONTACT me to discuss your special piece, the story, where you would like to showcase it, colors, sizing and for a custom quote. I know your piece is special and I want to make sure I know all about the story and your expectations.

Pricing starts at $175 (plus shipping/delivery), with approximately $50 per square foot after the first 1'x1'. Framing also available, otherwise, each piece comes as a finished canvas edge.

My ultimate goal is to do a wedding dress... If I had a place to hang it, I would do my own wedding dress! One day...

More examples to come. Commissioned works are in progress!

Have any questions? Contact the shop owner. 


 Thanks for letting me share!!!! .....Patty

  2. Thank you Loi. Yes, the Christening Dress is a treasure. It has been in our family since the mid 1890's!

  4. We once had all sorts of dance costumes but I'm not sure what happened to them. This is a nice way to actually do something creative with them. It would be a beautiful art piece to have in a young girl's room.
