Award-Winning Puppy!

This client's sister loves her dog as much as her own child (understandable for such a cutie!), so she decided a painting of the puppy in all its award-winning glory would be the perfect birthday gift!

A Man and His Dog

My client claims her husband is the guy who has everything, so what better gift for him than a painting with him and two of his favorite things- his truck and his dog! 

Cat And Dog Portrait Minis Available!

These little mini canvases are all available!  They're 5" x 7" and painted on canvas board, ready to display as-is or be popped into a frame.  They're available for $35 at my Etsy shop, or email me directly to cut out the middle-man and receive a discount!

A Day At the Beach

At least once a year, I try to take a photo of my kids at the beach like this-- backs to the camera, holding hands, looking out at the ocean.  I have a whole series of them, and I love looking back at the changes that happen from year to year. 

A Wedding Gift

My sweet client wanted a special wedding gift for her sister and fiancé, so decided to have their portrait done as a surprise.  The photo she had to work from was fairly small and lacked detail, so I worked from both it and a more detailed photo of her sister in order to get it just right.  The couple displayed the painting at their wedding!

Here's what the client had to say about the gift:

Thank you again for the painting.  It was perfect and a big hit.  They both loved it. 

Jaguars and Seahawks Paintings for My Boys

I decided to do paintings for my sons for Christmas, as they've got a pretty strong rivalry going on regarding their favorite football teams.  I made some slight changes to the gloves to keep them a bit simpler, but needless to say, they loved them!

Hawaiian Wave Painting

How's that for an amazing photo?  This customer's son was surfing in Hawaii when this shot was taken, and she wanted a painting done of it as a Christmas gift. It was both a challenge and an adventure to paint!

Meet Falcon

Falcon is a service dog.  Isn't he gorgeous?  His owner's girlfriend commissioned me to paint him for her boyfriend as a Christmas present.  I love painting animals, and service animals are even more special than others!

Baby Eli

Look at this little cutie-pie!  What a smile!  As you can see, I changed up the background a bit, just to add a little more color.

Avery and Penny

This is Avery and her puppy, Penny! 

Here's a video of the painting process.  If you're interested, I can make a video of your own painting for an additional $10!

Watch Me Paint!

I thought it may be fun to show some videos of a painting coming to life!  It's amazing to watch myself paint this quickly!
