Overlooking the Fox River in downtown St. Charles, Hotel Baker is more than a landmark- it’s a backdrop to love stories, once-in-a-lifetime celebrations, and timeless memories. This original acrylic on canvas captures the hotel’s golden glow reflected in still waters, where lily pads and ducks drift peacefully through a scene suspended in time.
Measuring 20 X 20, this collector-grade painting is a tribute to the moments that matter most- whether you’ve stood inside its historic walls, exchanged vows beneath its windows, or simply felt something each time you passed by.
Hand-signed by local artist Susan Swanson and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity, this piece marks the debut release from Suzy Q Studio- a mother-daughter studio founded in the greater St. Charles area, to honor place, meaning, and legacy through art.
