A Reddan Family Affair, a commissioned family portrait by Natalie Dyer celebrating the Reddan family at Christmas
The Story Behind It

A Reddan Family Affair

This commission was to capture the client’s absolute love and commitment, not only to her family but also to Christmas. Such a celebrated time in this household that it was important to capture the characteristics of each family member and bring it all together.

Cheryl and Darren first bought my work aboard a cruise ship, then contacted me personally some time later. This was the first of three commissions I have painted for them. They now have seventeen of my originals in all, along with numerous limited editions. Most of those they simply saw and loved. When we first started the grandchildren were so young, and as further family paintings happened I was able to capture their growth, and the other additions to the family.

What the client said

“I got my masterpiece today, and I Love it! Darren does too. I am amazed at the detail. I keep seeing little bits of us newly pop up every time I look at it. Fabulous!”
