It’s always fun to bring a client’s idea to life. My dear repeat customer, Margaret, wanted to give her god daughter a unique gift so she asked me to paint her cat, Harley. We turned this portrait into a pendant so her god daughter can wear Harley’s portrait every where she goes. It was a fun project and painting dark (near black) fur is always a challenge!

Sweet baby Steffi. This is a commission created for a client who gave me a photo of this sweet girl in a pumpkin costume. We wanted to create a timeless portrait that didn’t have a holiday theme so I added a pink bow and lots of flowers. I can’t wait for the parents to see it. I hope they love the new background as much as I do.

It’s commission season again! I’m so fortunate to have amazing clients who ask me to paint year after year. This is portrait #4 for a friend/client who orders custom holiday cards. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate her support. More commissions in the weeks to come…
Tabby Cat in Hot Air Balloon

A couple years a go a nice woman from Pennsylvania found my artwork online and commissioned me to paint her tabby cat in a hot air balloon for her future child’s nursery. (She was pregnant at the time.) The new baby came and life got busy and we lost touch. I couple weeks ago, she followed up and said she was serious about moving forward with the commission and I was so happy to hear the news. This was a fun one! Whimsical and personal…I’m really thankful she trusted me to paint her sweet tabby cat.

I painted this piece for my cousin, Lisa so she could give it to her husband, John, for Father’s Day. We did an art swap. She sent me these awesome cuffs, which she made, in return. I absolutely love them!

I was asked to paint these sweet pups as a two-part holiday present this year. Above you’ll find a close up of the dogs on the boat painted below. The client asked me to add in a sunset last minute, which added a pop of color and excitement to the piece. It’s always an honor to be asked to paint commissions, especially when I have the opportunity to bring a unique idea in a client’s mind to life.

One of my buddies at Full Sail recently lost his long-time companion, Bruiser. When I was asked to paint Bruiser, it was a huge honor because I know how hard it is on an owner when they lose a pet. Not to mention, Bruiser was adorable. Check out that sweet face. I thoroughly enjoyed painting his cute puppy eyes and nose in a limited palette.
