Nicholas unviels portraits of Jane Goodall and Clyde Butcher. LEGACY:
“There is nothing that makes its way more directly to the soul than beauty.” Joseph Addison
Can you imagine yourself or someone you love or admire having their portrait displayed on the wall of a great museum far beyond our own lifetimes? Can you imagine the happiness it could offer to those close to you? You have the opportunity to create or expand your own legacy, an opportunity to offer a painting that reveals more than words could.
Or you might underwrite, yourself or with a group, a painting of a great person, someone whose work should be recognized. We can help you develop a plan to immortalize another person, or to offer your own portrait, or that of your family to future generations. Our studio takes the classical approach and we believe it to be the best choice for a lasting legacy.
If there is someone you know whom we should consider as the subject of a future portrait because of the benefits they have provided for others in a selfless manner, and you would like to pursue a philanthropic approach to funding your choice, please contact us and we will help you bring your idea to fruition.

Come and share a cup of coffee in a cheerful place of creativity. You can observe the colors of the earth transformed to life once again, from dust to life. Beauty is eternal. I look for it and always find it. I am respectful of the classical ideals – beauty, humanism, dignity, grace and vulnerability – when creating a legacy for those who have the vision to see beyond their mortality.
“I see a strong trend toward classicism in art. The once-shocking has become mundane, and the early adaptors are returning to refinement and tradition. There are many signals, but a curious observation is that in both Europe and the US, established, classical children’s names are now the vogue.”
~ Lea M. Borkenhagen, Ph. D.
