Let Me Paint Your Favorite Scene
Have a favorite photo? We take photos of places we go and things we do. But some moments we don't want to forget. I will hand paint your favorite scene!  You will have an enduring keepsake and  addition to your home!

In each painting, I add my artistic hand,  vivid color and expressive brushwork to crate an original painting can be an enduring memory of your life experiences!

How it Works
You provide the photos. I paint the scene. I will compose a Digital Photographic Layout, based on the photos you send.  I may make some adjustments to accentuate or simplify the scene for painting. I will email it to you to approve. Then I paint it in the medium of your choice. I will send you a progress shot of the painting nearly done so you can approve the likeness. I ask for a 25% deposit to reserve the time in my schedule. If you prefer a different medium, you may request it. You have the option of framing it yourself, or having me help you get it framed and shipped to you.

Here’s How to Get Started
  • Choose a Size Option below and click to book your portrait in my schedule.
  • A deposit is required to start. You will receive a confirmation with the current lead time. 
  • Balance is due upon approval of a low resolution digital photo of the final painting prior to shipping.
  • Price includes the original painting only. Additional options can be added at checkout. See below.

Framing Options

Frame it Yourself 
You have the option of framing your painting yourself ...

Have Someone Else Frame It
Your framer or interior designer can help you choose a frame to work with your pet portrait.
​
Either way, you should use museum archival quality matting materials and glass or acrylic plexi-glass with UV protection. This will prevent natural sunlight fading of the watercolor. 


I Can Frame It for You
I can help you order a custom frame online through a trusted framer. I will help you order the frame by sharing my screen on zoom and uploading the Digital Photographic Layout on the framer's website prior to painting. We then choose the matt color, frame style and plexi-glass type that best suits your needs. When I complete the portrait, I will ship it to the framer directly.  They will frame it and ship it to you. If you want additional framed prints, the framers can supply the prints and frame them for you.
