Photo Gallery pet portrait

---

I grew up in New York on "The Island" (Long Island), always close to a body of water for my first 17 years. Made my way south to North Carolina to start college and to meet the professor/rugby coach (thanks, Dean) who knew I needed to be in Seattle! So, here  I am, aboard my boat with my big dog and living the artist life. 

I have been part of gallery shows in the past and was recently "Artist of the Week" for "Seattle Refined. "

It's taken more than two years without my dog🫤 and with the addition of a cat, Lionel, to edit this site but I will never take away my original feeling when I started this adventure ❤️‍🩹.

All of my work is done in oil paint on stretched canvas. 

Pricing varies, based on size, number of animals, and background. For example, a 12" x 16" painting of a single animal with provided reference photos (as sharp as possible, please) is $600. Venmo, PayPal, Zelle, and cash are accepted. 

50% down is required to secure your spot and supplies. Shipping costs are additional when applicable. 

A painting takes about two weeks of work and drying time.  Mother Nature rules, so  please allow leeway as it can get tough to paint aboard in windy weather!

It's not hard to find inspiration everywhere and everyday.  Living on the water offers endless visuals.

My love of animals and being a dog "mom" for most of my life are the things that bridge heart to brush.
