About this Product
Giclee print of my original watercolor and ink painting of an Episcopal Church in Satellite Beach, Florida featuring its classic red doors, ornate entry and beautiful steeple. In a city just under 70 years old, this little wooden church is over 120 years old! The church was built in 1902 but donated to Satellite Beach in 1959 when it was shipped up the Indian River by a barge and then pulled across telephone poles from the river to its new home. Since the church does not sit next the river, it's safe to say, it must have taken a lot of time to get the church to its land on Grant Ave. The steeple was added later, it seems, because it is not in the original photos.
Dimensions:
5x5 or 8x8 inches with a 1/8-inch border.
Quality Materials:
Printed on matte white archival paper with Epson archival ink, this print will last a lifetime without fading or yellowing. Giclee prints are the best quality print available and the closest you can get to the original painting.

Meet the Maker
I am a watercolor and ink artist living in Satellite Beach, Florida. A native Floridian, my art is influenced by the small-town charm of Bartow where I grew up and the coastal charm of Florida’s beaches – I have lived on both coasts.
My love of watercolor did not come easily. In fact, when I first started painting in 2012, I hated watercolor. But I wanted my drawings to have color, so I kept trying.
My art education includes one introductory class in watercolor, many hours of learning at YouTube University (as I like to call it), and lots of practice.
I mainly paint buildings, beaches, plants and trees. I love the whimsical feel of watercolor with ink details and outlines, but I dabble in painting in straight watercolor, and sometimes even acrylic.
When not painting, I enjoy jigsaw puzzles, exploring backroads, and spending time with my husband and son.
I want my paintings to make others happy. I want them to brighten a room, a mood, or someone's day. I hope they do that for you.
How it’s Made
This print started as a hand painted watercolor piece that I scanned to make a print quality digital file. I used Photoshop to make sure the colors came out as close as possible to the original, and then I printed the piece using a professional wide format printer.
