Welcome to Harriet’s House Portraits
Where every home has a story worth painting.
A house is more than just a building, it’s where life unfolds, where memories are made, and where stories are held. My bespoke house portraits are painted in gouache on paper (and sometimes acrylic on canvas, depending on your needs). These illustrations are created to capture the character and spirit of a home.
They make meaningful gifts for weddings, anniversaries, Christmas, birthdays, or simply as a keepsake of a special place. Choose the size that feels right for you, and I’ll turn your home into a timeless work of art.
I offer four portrait sizes, each with its own charm. A Small portrait (£75) makes a sweet and decorative keepsake for cottages or terraces. The Medium (£145) gives more room for detail and makes a lovely gift for weddings, anniversaries, or new homes. A Large portrait (£250) offers generous space to bring out character and quirks, while the Large Plus (£450+) is heirloom-sized, capturing every feature of a home in all its glory. Pets, people, gardens, and allotments are always welcome additions.

Large Plus Portraits
Starting from £450, these pieces offer full-page A3 or larger A2 standalone, painted in gouache on heavyweight paper or acrylic on canvas board or stretched canvas. Perfect when you’d like more than just the house — gardens, pets, and personal touches can all be included.
These are hand-painted, folksy portraits full of warmth and character. They’re not architectural drawings, but joyful illustrations that celebrate home as the place where life truly happens.
