Custom Pet Portraits. Oil on Canvas.

I grew up on a farm with dogs, cats, chickens, horses, cows, pigs, and in my teens, 20s, & 30s, I worked with horses, both western style on a Colorado ranch – where I managed a herd of 30 horses and took natural horsemanship training and workshops after spending my teens riding english style –  hunter/jumper, dressage. I’ve always had a best dog and best cat in my life. I call my style intuitive painting. After decades having animals as best friends, I feel like I know “them” when I see their photos. I walk you through choosing the best photos that I can connect with and will ask you questions about their personality and your relationship to them. I also ask you about your color and style preferences. Before I begin painting, I also will give you general digital mockup with a color story, showing how I imagine it might look on the canvas, before I commit oil paint to the canvas. All of my work is 100% guaranteed. I do not want anyone to feel committed to buying something they don’t love, and it’s impossible to know where I will land . . . because it truly is an intuitive process once I start painting.
