A hand-drawn house portrait is a truly unique and personalised settlement gift that goes far beyond the traditional bottle of wine or gift hamper. Thoughtful, meaningful, and beautifully crafted, it celebrates one of the most significant milestones in your clients’ lives — the purchase of their new home.

Each custom portrait captures the character and charm of the property, transforming a house into a treasured piece of artwork. It becomes more than just a gift; it is a lasting keepsake that tells the story of a special chapter and creates an emotional connection long after settlement day.

By presenting your clients with a hand-drawn house portrait, you demonstrate genuine care, attention to detail, and appreciation for their journey. It’s a memorable gesture that stands out from generic gifts and leaves a lasting impression of your service and professionalism.

Best of all, while many settlement gifts are quickly forgotten, a custom house portrait is proudly displayed on the wall for years to come. Every time your clients admire their artwork, they’ll be reminded of the experience you helped create—keeping your name front of mind and encouraging future referrals. In many ways, your next referral could be hanging on your client’s wall.

What is my commission drawn on?

Your commission artwork comes on 250gsm premium bristol drawing paper.

 

What do I need to provide?

The address of the commission and any photos you have of the property. However, I also work from Google maps and real estate photos (as long as they are available) and quite often this is all I need. Once the address is provided, I will let you know if I require any further photos.

​

Can text or the address of the property be added?

Yes, you can add the address of the property, the client's name(s), a date, whatever text you like. You can even have your business name added as well, a constant reminder and promotion for your company! Just add whatever text you would like in the provided space on the order form below. 

 

What is the process?

I sketch out the image and send that to you for approval. Any changes/additions are best made here. Once the sketch is approved, the image is then drawn onto the drawing paper in ink. Once completed, a final photo is sent for your approval and the work is then framed (if that option is chosen), packaged and shipped to you. At this stage the balance is paid.

 

How much is shipping?

Shipping costs are included in the cost. Standard shipping is with Australia Post, is fully insured and tracked. If you require Express post, this can be organised for a small extra cost.

 

Payment options/ideas

I accept most payment methods.
