The ones you come home to, in watercolor.
Custom watercolor portraits by Kay Potter. Family means everyone: the kids, the grandparents, the dog at your feet and the cat on the windowsill.
The faces that make it home
Every family has its own look. There's the way your kids lean on each other, the grin your dad saves for the grandkids, and the dog who has to be in every photo. These are the faces you'd know anywhere, and the ones you'll want to remember just as they are right now.
Photos capture a moment. A painting asks someone to really look. Kay pays attention to the small things that make each person and each animal themselves, then paints them with care, one subject at a time.
A gift people feel
Kay's favorite moment is when someone sees their portrait for the first time and recognizes the people they love in it. It's a common choice for anniversaries, new babies, milestone birthdays, and remembering a pet who's gone, and it becomes something that stays on the wall for years.

It helps. Kay can combine people and pets from different photos, but portraits come together most naturally when everyone is in the same image.
