It has only been in the last ten years that painting pet portraits has becomes my main focus. I love depicting the character and personality of the pets. It all began when my parent’s dog, a lab, chow mix named Kuma passed on and I was searching for a way to bring them some comfort as well as give them a daily reminder of the bond they shared. I drew them a portrait of Kuma with his big smiley face and the always cheerful, ready to play expression he had. This portrait hangs in their home and is a treasure to this day.
A pet portrait is a great way to celebrate the very special relationship that we have with our pets. Each one is so uniquely different, with their own character, personality and markings; it is very important to me to depict that with celebration.
Please take a moment to browse around my website, and see my watercolor work. My Gallery page is filled with some of my latest animal portraits. My Blog is also included in the site which has many sketches as well as updates on my current activities.
If you are interested in having your pet’s portrait painted in watercolor, details are on my Pet Portrait page. I would love to create a custom original watercolor pet portrait for you!
