August 12, 2013 by Suzanne 14 Comments

Photographs are great, and we have a long list of recommended photographers, but a painting is special.  If you’re interested in having one made of your children, here are some artists the moms recommend.

  • Sue Foell in DeSoto county is excellent
  • I second Sue Foell- she used to be my neighbor and I know firsthand that her work is wonderful.

BrushWorks Art
Gary Parisi did a beautiful four generation painting for my birthday.

Helen Argo in Hernando, MS is excellent. and, she has been an elementary school teacher and principal, so has lots of experience with kids. Her number is 901-833-6889. Or 662-429-9325. She’s won lots of awards, too.
