Special Commissions, Murals and Furniture

Creating Specialty Artwork since 1995

My art story...

1995 - Lewis-Grote Illustrations created

Most popular were my pen and ink illustrations for businesses, individual and university projects. Special commissions included indoor and outdoor murals ranging from 3' to 64', Custom designs were used as magazine covers and card designs for CSC, Shriner's Hospital and CMSU.  Children's book designs for Frank-Schaffer Publications and Rosebud Rubber Stamps.


Municipal Theatre "The Muny" of St. Louis Season Apprentice 


Custom Murals, Cards and Magazines for area schools and colleges


2018 - Lewis-Grote Illustrations name changes to Barn Baby Art

Inspired by repurposing a wooden floor in a horse trailer, Barn Baby has continued to grow by painting on reclaimed barn wood and also by venturing out to painting oils directly on wooden furniture. After curing the sealed furniture literally becomes functional artwork.
