Verified Member since Nov 2019 Verified checkmark

I've been doing pet portraits since 2001, and offer a style for every budget. Whichever style you choose, I work with you to pick the best photo(s) to use as reference. You'll have a chance to review sketches, composition and/or process photos. Most importantly, I'll work on your portrait until you're happy!

I hold a Master's Degree in Fine Art from School of Visual Arts. I have done over 500 pet portraits and have many repeat clients. I am a lifelong animal protection activist and often donate artwork to animal charities.
