In the summer of 2019, I began doing Pastel Pet Portraits from photographs that people texted me. At first I worked on commissions for various residents in the apartment building where I live, Then after posting samples on facebook and instagram I began to receive referrals from friends, family and aquaintences.

I love bringing to life the variety of breeds, characteristics and pet personalities I am being called upon to capture. I've loved drawing animals since I was a child and it seems appropriate that this is my current calling at this stage of my life.

I enjoy creating art that brings pleasure to pet owners with these vivid images of pets living or past on that can be treasured forever.

The procedure for engaging me is as follows:

Text, Email or mail me a photograph that clearly and accurately shows your pet as you see it. I prefer not to have to work from photos with indistinct characteristics that make me guess.

Then, once we agree on a price + shipping, I will create the portrait and text you the artwork for your approval.

Once final approval is achieved you mail me a check and when payment is received I will ship the original to your mailing address.
