A Special Treehouse


AG's House
24 x 24 inches
Gouache and Ink on Wood
2011

This commission was a special treat to do, for a special friend. This charming house with lovely details on the porch, half moon attic windows and adorable scalloped shaped shingles. It is one of the most complex treehouses that I've taken on, and I feel like I never really knew this house until I drew it.


It's amazing how lives can intertwine in a place, and I am glad for the friendships that began in a small Nebraskan city where this house lives, with some the nicest folks I've ever met :)
