THE ARTWORK
Three ways to live
with your portraits.
Every product in the collection is selected during your Design Consultation — no guessing, no pressure. We design your artwork around your actual walls, your home's palette, and the way you want your family's story to feel in the rooms you live in.
CHAPTER 01
The Heirloom Album
Hand-stitched in Italy with archival, museum-grade papers. Your family's story told across linen or leather — a tactile object that demands to be held, passed down, and rediscovered by every generation that follows yours.
- Italian craftsmanship — leather or linen binding options
- Archival lay-flat pages, pigment-printed on acid-free paper
- Blind-embossed monogram on the cover
- Designed to be read, not archived in a drawer
Investment from $1,800
CHAPTER 02
Statement Wall Art
Hand-finished frames designed to complement your home's architecture. A single statement portrait, a curated triptych, or a full gallery wall — every configuration is designed using your room's actual dimensions before a single print is ordered.
- Museum-grade canvas and fine art metallic prints
- Frames hand-selected to match your interior palette
- Wall design consultation included — we show you exactly how it looks first
- Professional installation included throughout Middlesex County
Investment from $1,200
CHAPTER 03
The Portrait Box
For the collector who values the tactile ritual of discovery. A handcrafted wooden box holds a curated set of matted fine art prints — portraits meant to be touched, re-arranged, and given as gifts across generations.
- Linen or wood box, archival matted prints
- Ideal for grandparents, gift sets, and annual commissions
- Prints sized for tabletop or future framing
Investment from $1,200
THE SCIENCE OF PRESERVATION
Why our art outlasts everything else.
The average family photo stored on a phone or USB drive is gone within a decade — devices fail, formats become unreadable, clouds get cancelled. A museum-grade print on archival paper with pigment-based inks is rated to remain as vivid for 200+ years as the day it was made.
We use only the materials a conservator would approve. Because the portrait you're commissioning isn't for you — it's for the people who come after you.
- Pigment-based inks
- Acid-free papers
- Museum-grade canvas
- Archival mounting
- UV-protective coating
- Italian leather binding
THE DESIGN SERVICE
Designed for your walls.
Not a generic size.
Using professional wall art design software, I show you exactly how your portrait collection will look in your home — at the correct scale, in the correct room — before you commit to a single piece. No surprises. No second-guessing.
You send me photos of your walls. I design three collection options. We review together during your Reveal appointment, select what feels right, and I handle everything after that — production, framing, delivery, and installation.
Share your walls Photos of the rooms and walls where you envision your portraits living.
See your collection in your home I design 2–3 options using your actual room dimensions before any print is ordered.

QUESTIONS ABOUT ARTWORK
Everything you want to know before you invest.
Common questions from families across Chelmsford, Westford, Concord, and Greater Boston.
How is the investment structured — do I pay for artwork separately?
Yes. The commission fee covers the session experience, wardrobe guidance, and the Design Consultation. Artwork is selected and ordered separately at the Reveal appointment, after you've seen your images. This way you're never committing to products you haven't seen yet. Most families in Greater Boston invest $2,000–$4,500 for their full commission including artwork.
What if I'm not sure what artwork I want before we start?
That's completely normal — and exactly why the Design Consultation exists. We talk through your home, your walls, your style, and what you want to feel when you walk into the room. By the time your session happens, you already have a strong sense of direction. The Reveal appointment handles the rest.
Do you offer digital files?
Digital files are available as an add-on to a full artwork commission — not as a standalone product. This is an intentional choice: a digital file alone is not a legacy. It's a convenience. Our work is designed to live on walls and in albums, where it actually gets seen and felt by the people you love.
How long does it take to receive finished artwork?
Wall art and framed prints are typically delivered and installed within 3–4 weeks of the Reveal appointment. Heirloom albums are produced in Italy and take 6–8 weeks. Portrait boxes are typically ready within 3 weeks. Rush timelines can sometimes be accommodated — ask at your consultation.
Do you deliver and install the artwork?
Yes. White-glove delivery and professional installation is included for all wall art commissions throughout Chelmsford, Westford, Concord, Acton, and surrounding Middlesex County communities. We hang everything level, properly anchored, and positioned exactly where we planned it during the design process.
Are the materials really museum-grade — or is that just marketing language?
It's a precise technical claim. Our labs use pigment-based inks (not dye-based), acid-free archival papers, and materials with independent 200-year fade resistance ratings from manufacturers like Hahnemühle and Canson. The Italian albums use binding techniques and papers also used in art book conservation. These aren't buzzwords — they're specifications you can verify.
