House portraits have increased in popularity over the last few years as more homeowners search for personal ways to decorate their walls, but very few works reflect a home in as much detail as artist Farley Lewis’s can. Lewis earned a Fine Arts degree from Missouri State University in 1985, then he ran a sign shop and graphic design studio for 15 years, often doing commissioned paintings and murals. He can now be found helping run Fresh Gallery in Springfield. Lewis can be commissioned to either paint or draw your cherished home, whether it be your childhood home or a brand new home you love.
