The Family Portrait as a Work of Art.
by artist Heidi Knight
The families we love shape every chapter of our lives.
A commissioned family portrait preserves more than appearances. It captures connection: the way you look at each other, the relationships that define your family, and the people who make your life what it is.
A Heidi Knight Original gives those people a presence in your home that feels entirely different from simply having photographs of them. It becomes artwork you live with every day, something you notice when you walk into the room and something that becomes more meaningful as the years pass.
A family portrait does not have to feel formal or stuffy. It should feel like the people in it. It should feel like you.
A family portrait does not have to feel formal or stuffy. It should feel like the people in it. It should feel like you. And it should be the piece in your home you love most.
Created Exclusively for Your Family
There is no other piece exactly like yours because there is no other family exactly like yours.
A Heidi Knight Original preserves a true likeness while giving it the depth and presence of original fine art. The result feels collected rather than purchased and personal in a way that artwork chosen simply to decorate a room never can.
It becomes part of the home because it is part of the family.
Many families begin with one portrait and return for the next chapter. A single Original has a way of becoming a collection.
A True Likeness With The Texture And Depth Of Fine Art
Artwork That Becomes Part of the Home
The most personal homes are not necessarily the most perfectly decorated. They are the ones that reveal something about the people who live there.
A commissioned family portrait does exactly that.
It is the piece guests stop to look at. The piece you commissioned because you wanted it. The piece you would take with you if you moved tomorrow because its meaning has nothing to do with the room around it.
Heidi accepts only six commissioned Originals each year.
