As a pet portrait artist, I thoroughly enjoy the creative process of bringing my clients' beloved pets to life on canvas or paper.

 I love the challenge of capturing each animal's unique personality and character through my pastels/art strokes and colour choices. The challenge of art, in the style of Realism, adds to the adventure of creating each piece of artwork. To own a beautiful photograph of one's own pet is wonderful but so too is a piece of artwork that's been created layer upon layer with love, skill and appreciation.  Artwork can add soul and depth to an image of a pet. 

I  enjoy the opportunity to work for my clients, learning about their pets' quirks, mannerisms and personal histories. Seeing joy and the emotional connection that my clients have with their pets is one of the most rewarding aspects of my work. Overall, being a pet portrait artist allows me to combine my passion for art with my love for animals, and brings me a great deal of fulfilment.
