New Home Art
Moved in, unpacked most of the boxes, and now the walls are staring at you. Let's fix that.
Who this is for
First-time homeowners, people who just moved cross-country, people upsizing, people downsizing.
Why it's hard elsewhere
Blank walls feel temporary. Buying art 'normally' takes weeks of browsing. You want something specific to this place, this moment, fast.

Prompt ideas to get you started
Copy, tweak, or use as inspiration. The wizard will turn these into art.
- “Watercolor of our new craftsman house with the moving truck in the driveway and our dog on the porch.”
- “A line-art portrait of our brownstone with the neighbors' cat in the window.”
- “Our family's first apartment — warm window lights, nighttime, watercolor.”
- “Illustration of the view from our back deck — mountains, pines, morning mist.”
- “A retro poster of our cul-de-sac on a summer evening, long shadows.”
- “Minimalist ink drawing of our building facade, single door highlighted in our favorite color.”
Styles that work great for this
What people say
“First-time homeowners here. Described the house and our dog and had a framed watercolor in the entryway within a week. Felt like we actually lived there.”
“We moved cross-country. Getting a portrait of the new place up made it feel less like an AirBnB.”
“Gifted myself after closing. The framing arrived two days before our housewarming. Everyone asked where it was from.”
Questions, answered
- Do I need architectural drawings or just photos?
- Phone photos are plenty. A front-exterior shot plus one or two of the details you love (the porch, the front door color, the tree out front) is all we need.
- Can I include pets, family members, or cars in the scene?
- Absolutely — and it's usually what makes these pieces feel personal. Include everyone in the prompt.
- Will it still look right if I change the paint color later?
- Yes — the portrait is a moment in time, which is part of the point. You can always reorder later with the new color if you want.
- Do apartments and condos work?
- Yes. The building, the door number, the view from the window, your reading nook — all good subjects.
- Does this work for vacation homes too?
- Completely. Vacation-home portraits are popular second-home gifts and housewarming presents.
