Leisa's paintings bring to mind the old phrase, "a picture paints a thousand words," and her beautiful house portraits speak for themselves. Her creativity and attention to detail shine through in all of her artwork. Leisa is not only a gifted artist but also a person of great integrity. Her interest in the preservation of historical buildings and her recognition of people and organizations devoted to the restoration of these architectural gems is commendable. I recently commissioned Leisa to paint the first home of the young couple next door as a housewarming gift, and they were deeply touched and overjoyed with the painting. If you are thinking of commissioning a painting of a house that means a great deal to you, I would highly recommend Leisa. You won't be disappointed.
Leisa did an amazing job on my grandmas house. She just sold her house and I wanted her to have a good memory of it. What better way than a beautiful painting. It came out perfect!! We just got it today and grandma is smiling from ear to ear with joy. Leisa is super kind and easy to work with. Thank you Leisa for this beautiful painting.
Leisa's amazing watercolor made the perfect gift to my wife for our 25th anniversary! Leisa captured not only the precise details of our home of 22 years, she captured the very spirit of it. She took the time to really understand what the home meant to us, and how we raised a bunch of kids and a bunch of dogs there, and then baked that understanding into a beautiful, lasting testimony.
Leisa is a gifted artist who also happens to be a super nice person. She captured our bungalow home perfectly! She even accommodated us by adding our 1935 classic car to the scene. It wasn't in the driveway when Leisa first saw and sketched our home. When my husband Mike contacted her, she readily agreed to send a photographer to take pics of the car in the driveway. As you can see, Leisa gave us a beautiful rendition of our home that we will treasure forever. We have since moved out of the area but we have a beautiful memento to remind us of our life in San Jose.
Leisa is a truly gifted artist who chose to paint my home as part of a series she was doing in Royal Oak, MI. My wife and I could not wait for the original to arrive in the mail. You can really see the crisp architecture lines of the house contrasted against the vibrant watercolors. It was so beautiful and she captured every detail including our little free library, the landscaping and front porch accessories. The painting has already become a conversation piece in our home. I would highly recommend Leisa Collins Artwork. She is an amazing artist and passionate about architecture.
Leisa reached out to us and said she had painted our home and if we were interested, we could have first chance at purchasing. Yesterday, I saw her creation, and I was speechless with her work. I will cherish this piece of art. I would highly recommend Leisa to anyone that might want to have a watercolor portrait of their home.
A few months ago I received a note in my mailbox from Leisa informing me that she had done a watercolor painting of my 1896 Victorian house in Chicago. When I went to the web site to view it I was thrilled. I'm a Landscape Designer and when Leisa painted my house she captured so many of the lovely details of my house including the flowering hydrangea shrubs, the curving flower beds, the Japanese Maple, the window box and even the three hanging ferns on my front porch. Needless to say, I was very impressed. Of course I purchased the original painting and had it professionally framed. It is now hanging in my front hall next to a pen and ink drawing that a local artist drew of my house a a few years ago. Thank you Leisa for capturing the beauty and charm of my Victorian home!
