A Custom Watercolor Portrait Worth Keeping

A Watercolor Portrait That Brings Home to Life

There is something truly special about transforming a treasured photo into a hand-painted keepsake. This watercolor portrait of Trey and me has turned into one of our most treasured belongings, and it rests right beside the bed as a daily reminder of our story.

Courtney, a fellow baseball girl with genuine talent, painted this piece. She works in watercolor and can paint portraits, houses, churches, or nearly any subject you have in mind. You can find her artwork in her Etsy shop, CourtneyGrayArt, and working with her from start to finish was a delight. Her turnaround time is under a month, and her Instagram page, courtneygraytucker, showcases plenty of examples of her beautiful custom work. I happily recommend her watercolor pieces and plan to order from her again.
