Art is Love

First of all, I adore animals.  When I decided to start doing pet portraits, my excitement to paint was truly hightened.    I have "dabbled" for years and now that I can devote more time to my passion,  the possibilities are endless!

I have lived in suburbs of Denver, Colorado all of my life.  There is so much life and beauty surronding me, it is always a challenge to decide what to paint next!

The beauty of the aspens in fall, colorful sunsets, reflections in still lakes...and people! 

I have been commissioned on numberous occasions to create my impression of family exsistence.  I am not a full on face portrait artist, but so much happens at just the right angles for me create a unique, lasting memory for someone.  Fishing at a lake, playing in the ocean, picking pumpkins in the fall, or a small child laying under a lit Christmas Tree with a sleepy pup. 


Commissions are an absolute pleasure to work on. I love discussing possibilities with my customers and then watching them come to life.     My paintings are all about feeling good and creating joy.  

Many a tear has fallen upon delivery of a commission and that is like applause to a performer!

I paint a variety of subjects in my style so if there is something that you want, let’s talk.
