Custom Artwork for a Baby Girl’s Nursery

I have a lovely client who is an orthodontist and owns her own practice in College Park. When she opened the space, I painted 2 large paintings that still hang in her dental chair rooms. I was honored when she reached out to me again to complete another piece for her baby daughter’s nursery, and I had to share the painting and the gorgeous room she put together. I think it’s the prettiest nursery I’ve ever seen!

She is an avid reader, and always has wonderful visions for the paintings. This one was a quote by Mary Oliver, and I think it is SO PERFECT for a baby or kid’s room. She wanted it to match the paint colors in the room, so she told me what she was working with and I coordinated. She also had a vision of a chalkboard look with various fonts, so I sketched up a draft in a few versions and let her decide. Here were the options:

Option 1

Option 2

Option 3

Option 4

And the winner was……….dunnn dunnnn dunnnnnnnnnnnnn…… #3! Here it is complete, size 24 X 36!

Now, look at how cute it is in her beautiful nursery! I love her nursery color scheme of gray, pale pink and blue-green.

In case you were wondering, the paint colors she used in her baby girl’s nursery are all Benjamin Moore in colors BM Palladium Blue, BM Touch of Pink, and BM Hearthstone.

What do you think of the painting? Isn’t the color scheme she used adorable?!
