When a master portrait artist, reknowned for her powerful oil paintings, draws for us in charcoal, we have the opportunity to own & enjoy many beautiful, treasured family heirlooms. Capturing your beloved family, children & pets, in the timeless beauty of sensitive and archival charcoal drawings by a master portrait artist at significant moments in time, is something that can now be done. And so affordable you will want to take advantage of these beautiful recordings at many important time markers during life—infant, toddler, first grade, Communion, Confirmation, Bar/Bat Mitzvahs, sweet sixteen, first car, with pets, horses, vacations, Valentines, Christmas, birthdays, weddings, showers, anniversaries—for family, children, couples.... Just supply Jessica Rockwell with your favorite snapshots—for her reference in drawing. If needed it can also be arranged for the photographs to be taken in Ms. Rockwell's studio,

Jessica Rockwell, inspired by her cousin Norman, demonstrates the special ability to capture a moment in time, to record it faithfully, have it serve first as a mirror, then as a memory—for your family—for all time.

Here is what one parent says of Jessica's work:

"When Jessica told me she was doing charcoal sketches, I first thought of getting Michelle's First Communion commemorated. It wasn't long before I realized that even though Brett's was 5 years ago, I had the photo and could get that done too. Then when I saw the finished drawing of Brett—he was so 'little' then—I felt I could pinch his cute cheeks again. And Michelle looked so pretty in her lace dress. It was much grander and more special than the photo.
"I love original art. Now to know that I can get special events remembered this way.... Norman Rockwell— not only did he paint but he drew a lot as well. There are books of his work. I can imagine having many drawings of my
family. Confirmation is next for the children. And then there are other favorite times too that I might want remembered. You can see I am very sentimental with my family.
"Thank you, Jessica."
