FamilyTrees

Your Family Story,
Handpainted for Generations


We are making manifest your family image, turning the story that lives in memory, in kitchen-table conversations, in a grandmother's handwriting, into something visible, lasting, and shared. Every family, in every language of belonging, deserves a tree that's actually theirs.
Each family tree is a custom work of art, crafted to reflect your unique lineage. Its scope is depending on the size, number of names and generations, relation complexity, and craftsmanship involved.
Choose your favorite color palette, or let's discover it together. 
Every tree is grown and shaped to mirror your family's specific structure and relationships, with predesigned spots for expecting couples if requested. 
Scaled from intimate to grand depending on your family size and how much detail you'd like to include. Gilded Details

Any tree can be embellished with real 14–24k gold or silver leaf, applied as accents to prepared areas of the surface, or with names calligraphed in metallic ink. 
Note that gold and metallic pigments catch the light best from certain angles; from other perspectives, the text may appear duller and slightly less legible. It's a beautiful trade-off worth considering. On request, I'm sometimes persuaded to add custom painted portraits.  Branches can be color-coded by generation, sibling group, gender, or any aesthetic you envision.
 

Options

We understand the passion you've invested into putting together your family story, whether you've been dreaming of it for years or you're just beginning to imagine its shape. Our studio's experience is here to take you further and help translate that vision into a piece of art meaningful to every branch of your family.
