I roam the streets with my pen and paper, sketching the facades of beloved restaurants. Drawing in ink with no corrections and finishing the image with a single color, I create one-of-a-kind works that evoke fond memories of cherished meals together.
Bring home a beautiful reminder of what made your nights out so special. Each Giclee print is one of 365 and signed and numbered. The prints are great as unique gifts to mark important milestones - a first date, a deal closing, or a big anniversary.
