Remains to be Seen LLC. - The Art After Life
Unique
& Affordable Cremation Memorial Solutions
Losing a family member is never easy, and deciding what to do
for a lasting memorial can be equally challenging. With cremation services
becoming the popular alternative to traditional burial, you now have some
choices. You can do what’s always been done and keep your loved ones cremains
in a decorative container, or choose something more personal.
Introducing; Remains to be Seen, an affordable and unique way to
use cremation ashes (or other remains) to memorialize your family, friends or
beloved pets! We have developed a process whereby a small amount of cremation ash
(or other remains) is gently mixed with pigments to become part of a
commissioned memorial painting. Each stroke of each color is layered one after
another to become a soulful tribute that will have a special place in your home
and become a family heirloom for generations to come.
Our Story
The idea came to me when I saw an
old bumper sticker that read, “This bumper sticker was printed with ink that
was mixed with the ashes of Mount St. Helens.” Pondering the bumper sticker and
knowing my wish was to be cremated when I die, I thought, I could have my
cremation ashes mixed with paint and have a memorial painting commissioned. I
could then leave this painting for the loved ones that I left
behind, and it might eventually become a family heirloom.
When I told my friends and family, some
thought it was a bit odd, but they also realized what an incredibly
unique idea it was for a proper and beautiful memorial. Well the idea was
just that, an idea, and it stayed locked in the back of my head for
years. However, recently I was laid off and I decided I did not want to go
back to another corporate cubicle for another decade, so I presented the
idea to a beloved artist friend and Remains to be Seen LLC. was born.
We believe that having cremation ashes in an urn or keeping other remains
is a good way to remind yourself that your loved one has left this realm, but
when you choose to use them in artwork, it's a vibrant and unique way to
transform those remains and remember that they lived.
