Sunny, the Cocker Spaniel

Just sent Barbara a photo, of the pet portrait she commissioned me to paint of her sister's Cocker Spaniel, who she lost recently. Barbara responded, "I love this!! The background color is lovely. It looks just like her (I realize that was the plan but I am still taken aback by how much this looks like Sunny!). Thank you so much. You do beautiful work." Sunny, 8" x 8", oil on canvas. #CockerSpaniel #petartist #customoilpainting #oilpaintingsanimals #custompetportrait #doglo

Commissioned pet portrait of Lulu the Schnoodle

8" x 10", oil on canvas. Marlene, who lives in Washington State, sent photos of her "smart, mischievous, lively girl - 24 pounds of pure energy." for me to use for her portrait. She requested a turquoise background, her favorite color, and wanted it to coordinate with other artwork that she's collected. #petartist #schnoodle #doglover #customoilpainting #phototopainting #custompetpainting #customart #customdogpainting #oilpaintingsanimals #oilpaintingsofpets #birthdaygift #do

Reina - Indy Mutt Strut's TOP DOG 2018

For the last seven years, I've painted a custom portrait as an award, for the winner/top fundraiser each year. Mutt Strut is the largest annual fundraiser for the Humane Society of Indianapolis, held at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway every year. Reina's became the TOP DOG, because her owner, Laura Michael, worked hard to raise funds through Mutt Strut, and she became their top fundraiser. Reina has quite a story. She went to IndyHumane as a transfer from Indianapolis Animal

Allison's Pet Portraits

One of my best pet portrait client's is Allison, a pet lover, who's adopted many animals over the years. Her newest adoptees are Johnny, a beagle who is blind, and Joss, a Blue Tick Beagle, named Joss who is missing one eye. Allison said "she is truly beautiful". She is rescued many dogs and a cat over the years. She created a fun display shelf of all of her portraits. #doglover #dogart #oilpaintingsofpets #adoption #animal #animalart #customoilpainting #customart #beagle #ca
