Your Vision, Immortalized in Gold.
Commission a one-of-a-kind portrait that reflects your strength, story, and spirit.
Hand-gilded in 24K gold leaf by Shirley Yang Crutchfield.
This Isn’t Just a Portrait. It’s a Mirror of Who You Are.
You’ve built, led, survived, transformed. You’ve done the work. Now it’s time to see that journey reflected back at you so you always remember.
Shirley’s commissioned portraits are modern-day icons — combining classical renaissance techniques with the energy of real women who move the world. Each piece is a deeply personal artifact of legacy, strength, and feminine power.
If you’re ready to own a piece of art that tells your story, you’re in the right place.
What to Expect
Vision Call: We begin with a conversation to uncover your story, your icon energy, and what you want this portrait to hold.
Photo Curation: You’ll share reference photos, and Shirley will help select the one with the most emotional resonance.
Creation: Over the next 4–8 weeks (pending waitlist), your portrait is crafted using gold leaf, oil, and classical gilding techniques like pastiglia and sgraffito.
