Dog Art and Pet Portraits
Acrylic and Watercolor Dog art and Portraits Painted From Your Photos!
I would love to paint a portrait of your pet in acrylics on canvas
from your own photos
My dog portraits are painted from the photos you provide for me. If you have a favorite photo please send it and I will let you know if it is suitable to work from. Please send me as many pictures as you can. however, I will only work from the one photo chosen. If the portrait is to be of more than one pet I can compose the painting from single photos of each pet, but I will need at least one photo of the pets together, if possible, to insure their sizes are correct relative to each other. If you email them to me try to send them at the highest resolution possible. You can also mail them to me as prints or on a CD. I will return the prints to you along with the finished portrait.
For the larger portraits I require at least a 50% nonrefundable deposit when I accept your commission and before starting the painting. Please let me know if you need the painting for a special occasion and I will try to accommodate you if possible. If you are interested in a portrait for Christmas I would suggest placing your order at least 6 months in advance if possible. Turnaround time depends on how many commissions I have and I generally have a waiting list.
When I have completed the portrait I will send you a digital copy via email. You will then have the opportunity to accept the painting or suggest changes to be made. When these changes are complete I will again send you another digital photo via email for your approval. Upon acceptance I require the balance due after which I will send the painting to you. Professional packing and shipping charges will be additional. Payment can be made either by check or PayPal. If you do prefer to pay through PayPal, I can also send you a PayPal invoice upon request.

Painted "Rock Dogs" Art Portraits
I am now booking slots for 2014 for a limited number of custom needle felted dog and animal portraits...
or
I dreamed last night that I ran naked through a meadow...
the mountains soared above me catching the rising sun...
the mists lingered by the river far below...
the wet grass sparkled like diamonds in the morning sun...
The coolness of the dew on my feet made me shiver...
I ran...
leaping and jumping in the cool air....
falling and rolling in the wet grass...
feeling it caressing me... cleansing me...
Then I lay panting on the cool ground...
feeling the sun now, warm on my face...
A thousand thoughts and dreams passed through my mind...
instincts and awareness from my ancestors...
and from the pure joy of being...
to greet the day...
to rejoice in life...
I howled...
