Thank you for visiting PaintingYourMemories.com. This website grew out of a desire to record my family's special memories in oil paintings. I have enjoyed creating oil paintings of my children, and I see how they love their finished painting. Yet I know a more exciting day will come when these paintings are passed on to them to enjoy with their future families.

My professional career consists of fourteen years in the field of graphic design, but I've been painting since I was twelve years old. The inspiration comes from my passion for family and the desire to create memories for our kids; I also draw inspiration from growing up with good old-fashioned values on a farm near Rugby, North Dakota.

Do you have a photo of a favorite memory? Would you like something unique to hang on your wall? I have taken requests to paint for friends and family; I'd love to paint memories for you too. My specialty is capturing the every-day scenes of life. That means the best sources of inspiration are often spontaneous snapshots.

I can create painted memories for you too from your high-quality photos (to honor the copyrighted work of others I am unable to accept professional photographs) ... and if you live in the Fargo-Moorhead area I'd be happy to work with you and set up a photo session. Please contact me for more information.

Thanks again for visiting PaintingYourMemories.com. Isn't it time to create your memory?
