As much as I love colorful graphic illustrations, I've got an equal amount of love for minimalistic line drawings.
I've brought clean lines and lush botanicals to the classic home portrait, adding a touch of nature and a bit of whimsy.
Digital line drawn home portraits add a personal touch to your own walls, or make a great housewarming gift for a friend.

Each home portrait takes anywhere between 5-9 hours of active drawing time depending on the detail involved in the home + colorizing options. Most fall within the 5-7 range. As you can imagine, my hand, back, and eyes need to take breaks often!
How long does each home portrait take to illustrate?
It's definitely not exact (I'm sure there aren't plants literally springing from the roof, though it would be hella cool if there were), but rather an illustration to represent your home. So feel free to have me remove that random basement window that you hate, or color your siding pink like you've always dreamed it to be.
Is this an exact representation of our home? Can we request changes?
I can add a pet or two peeking out the window if you wish. Include their picture when you send your home photo!
As for the kids: sorry, I'm not adding people to the home portraits at this time.
Can you add my cat/dog/hamster or kids?
I do work with pencil/fineliner, watercolor, and gouache, but somehow along the way digital art became my preferred medium when it comes to selling my art. I've come to find creating with paper and tangible media to be a relaxing activity for me, and I don't want it to become a source of stress by turning it into work. So at this time I am not offering home portraits in watercolor, pen, or gouache, but this may be an option in the future!
Do you only work digitally? Can I request a different medium?
I can't speak for other artists and how they price their work, but I respect my time and talent too much to undercharge for the amount of work that goes into my art. As stated before, most of my home portraits take me over 5 hours to complete (some homes have taken as much as 9 hours). I then order a fine art giclée print which is shipped to the customer.
Long story short, I believe many of those artists are not charging their worth and deserve to make more for their effort.
I've seen some home portraits on Etsy for $40. Why are yours more expensive?
A keen eye! I've changed the addresses in the web versions in order to protect the privacy of customers while still showing what a home portrait with address would look like.
Hey! That's my friend's home, but not their address.

I ordered this for our sweet neighbors for their one year house-iversary, and it was the best gift! They love it, and I also love it and want one for myself. Alicia designed the house beautifully and looked for my input about if I cared about how I wanted the colors to be. I went with "artists choice," and it turned out awesome💛

Truly an heirloom. This was a gift from a dear friend as a housewarming gift and it now hangs in the foyer of my home. The first house I ever purchased on my own. Even if this place is no longer home, it'll be a reminder of the first place I called mine.

Alicia was such a joy to work with. This is the second time I’ve come to her and she is very responsive, delightful and at the end of it all there is a beautiful piece of art. I can’t recommend her enough!

Alicia made the most beautiful thoughtful custom illustration for me. She was easy to communicate the vision to and was quick to share a draft and open to making small changes and additions to make the illustration capture the essence of our sweet home perfectly. If your home is in need of some sweet, colorful, joyful custom art Alicia’s hands will make the perfect piece.
