I started painting dogs when I decided to paint my own dogs. This sparked my passion to not only portray the essence of the dog’s personality, but to bring joy to the family of each dog (or cat, or other beloved creature). I’ve worked in acrylics on canvas for the past 15 years. I’m an animal lover and truly feel that our pets are family. That said, my work is not limited to pet portraiture and includes landscape and still life.
