RECEPTION

Sandy

“I thought my husband deserved a portrait so as a gift I commissioned Wyatt to paint him in his kilt. We were so blown away by Wyatt’s work that we commissioned him to do my portrait as well.”

Tony and Dianna

“Our mutlti-generational home lacked any sign of our contribution. We commissioned Wyatt to paint our portrait and couldn’t be happier. This was not just a painting of us but a work of art that documents our family legacy.”

Heidi

“I wanted to capture our children as young adults before it was too late. Wyatt not only excelled as our artistic guide, he was attentive to our needs and shared progress with us to make sure we were happy. When the final portraits were delivered they were even more breathtaking in person.”
