Artist Biography and Partial Client List

Seton McGlennon, has enjoyed capturing memories for her clients, be it on an heirloom ornament of your Home, or capturing the Story of your Family's Life...one life at a time.

Her "specialties" are  one-of-a-kind heirloom ornaments and gifts. Witty designs and her ability to capture sentiment and any subject, in a number of popular mediums, brings delight to all who receive her pieces.

A former real estate agent, she began hand-painting her client's homes on ornaments as sales and closing gifts.  In 1993, to be home with her children and at the encouragement of her family,  she launched her company, Seton's Specialties.

Her artistic goal was to capture the intangible -memories. 

Seton created her piece de resistance and Trademark, the original Memory Trunk. With humor, insight and personal refined folk-art style, your family's tale is woven around the artwork and  your family stories come to life once again for generations to come.    

For 15 years, her self taught talent has allowed her to enjoy a wonderfully rewarding career. Artwork so refreshingly imaginative  it has garnered quite a bit of attention, as it graces fine homes worldwide, including The White House.

Her commissioned artwork is held by corporations, patrons, celebrities and collectors worldwide, and looking forward to adding her work to your personal art collection.
