Family dinner in Tuscany

Cena Toscana

Tuscan dinner - family portrait

This painting is my most ambitious project to date—created as a gift for my parents, Anneliese and Bertl (also in the painting), on their 60th wedding anniversary. Its a very personal piece – capturing a dinner we shared in Tuscany, with all their children and grandchildren gathered around the table. Beyond the faces and the setting, I’ve woven in subtle references to their life story—moments, symbols, and memories that shaped who they are and who we’ve become as a family.

The project was rounded off beautifully by a hand-made frame by my husband Jonathan.

Portraiture, for me, is about more than likeness—it’s about storytelling. If you’re looking for art that celebrates your own story, I’d love to help bring it to canvas.
