You’ve had an extraordinary life.

Full of extraordinary moments. 

Shared with extraordinary people. 

 

Commemorate those people and honor those moments with an exquisite “moment in time” commission.

 

A commissioned oil painting by Diana Stelin is a collaborative experience between you and the artist, where you work together but are led by the creativity and expertise of Stelin to create an emotive representation of a momentous event in your life or the life of a loved one.

 

“Moment in time” commissions are one of a kind works of art to commemorate special occasions and honor such life events as when you first met your wife or husband, your honeymoon, a memorable family trip, where your children were born, or even a special place where your loved one lights up with the laughter and smiles that you so cherish.
