Where the canvases tend to settle.

Three rooms the studio has documented with surprising consistency.

From the Curator's Desk

Each work in our collection is commissioned once, for a single patron, and never reissued. Your companion joins the permanent catalogue under a Latinized name of their own — entered into the studio's records under that name.
