Fine Art
by Heather Millenaar
I am truly myself while in the studio, painting or sketching away. Here is where you will find information and pricing in regards to Painted or Drawn portraits, Freelance Commision work and Murals, and Portrait Photography.
Heirloom Painted Portraits
Blend your love for family with your love and appreciation for fine art and family heirlooms. Have a one of kind, original oil painting commissioned of your family to cherish for generations to come. What is involved: First, we talk or meet to discuss your vision. I’ll provide insight into the art world and help develop your ideas into a finished oil painting. We will talk about layout and icons that will appear in your painting. Included within your commission is a mini photo shoot to capture the likeness of your family and the setting. I use my skills in Photoshop to tweak the image by adding in elements like a vintage clock your grandmother owns on the opposite coast, swap out a chair, change colors, etc. Once you like the photo after editing, I’ll begin transferring it onto the canvas by hand or with the aid of a projector. All painting on the canvas is done by me without any photo printed onto the surface. You’ll get email updates with images as the painting progresses with an in-person proofing session near the end to provide insight and any slight changes. Once your painting is complete, you’ll be invited to a viewing and to pick up your custom work of art. The many generations before us honored their family with painted portraits and then later on with photography. I want to bring back the charm and classic beauty of fine art in the home. Become an art collector by commissioning your own work of art or add to your collection by having your loved ones painted today! Your final painting will be photographed and available online for canvas prints, photo prints, and greeting cards for you to purchase and share with others.

Intimate Fine Art Portraits
Celebrate YOU with an intimate look into your curves and essence by booking a Painted Boudoir portrait. First we meet and take a few reference photos with beautiful spot lighting as seen in classic Master’s paintings, in a comfortable, private location of your choice. Wear, or not wear, whatever you’re comfortable with as we chat and talk about your favorite features and what you’d love to accentuate. I then pick my top 3 images, edit them, link you to a private photo gallery for you to make the final selection. Your top choice will then serve as the basis for a one of a kind oil portrait. I love movement, bold strokes, drips, and emotion. I use your chosen photo to represent your physical body, while emotionally conveying your inner beauty from all of the wonderful things we talked about during our session with my use of color, movement, and brushstroke.
Drawn Intimate Portrait – $300
Classic fine art sketch in a boudoir style set-up. We pick a comfortable private location of your choice and I bring music and spot lighting to create beautiful shadows all over your body. We work in 15 minute increments so you can stretch in between poses. When I find the perfect pose and the art is just flowing, I’ll have you hold the same pose for 1-3 more blocks of 15 minutes. I bring fabric to drape around you and you’re more than welcome to cover up, or bare all. The ultimate boudoir session great for you to keep or to give as a gift to your loved one.

Photography Portraits
Fleeting moments go by in a blink of an eye from the young ones in our lives growing up too quickly to the blissful blur of a wedding. Capturing those times through photography has become second nature in this modern society but what about taking it to the next level? Choose your favorite image from our session together and have it transformed into an original heirloom, a work of art that your family will cherish for generations. So often we purchase photo sessions and order our holiday cards or post the highlights on social media, but how often do you have a physical item printed from that session for your home?
I help take the stress out of the session by guiding you through the photos from our time together and providing my input as to which ones would be the best to transform into art. You can then hang your new beautiful timeless painting in your home, gift it to a relative, or keep the original for yourself and order canvas prints of your painting for your extended family in a variety of sizes.
