Many people choose to give a portrait of a meaningful building to someone they love or choose to honor for loyalty to an institution. Sometimes, as in the Essex Greenbelt Cox Reservation illustration, the purpose is to educate people about the building's many green features that give it a LEED certification.

Whatever the reason behind the assignment, architectural illustration is becoming a growing portion of Barbara's painting commissions. Her clients include:

• Suffolk University
• Essex Greenbelt Cox Reservation
• Private Residences
