I have had the pleasure of painting many commissioned pieces for those who see my
work, are drawn to my style, and want a custom painting that I create just for them.
Many of my commissions have been for those who want an original painting of their
beloved animal companion. I would be happy to paint and frame a portrait of your
pet for you. My pet portraits are detailed and vibrant, and I strive to capture your
animal friend in a way that will be a true commemoration. I’ll simply need several
good photos and your input on what setting/background you would like in the painting.
Email me about a painting that you would like me to create.
Another client wanted paintings based on the hymn called “The Friendly Beasts”, so
I did a different painting for each stanza - I really enjoy the challenge of putting
an image to words, be it a poem, a line in a book, or lyrics in a song.
I’ve also painted the greens for a golfer who wanted to celebrate his three ‘holes-in-one’,
which is a great gift idea for any golfer who may want his or her hole-in-one green
or favorite course painted and beautifully framed.
And now and then I create a painting of someone’s home, and make prints and greeting
cards for them to give out to family members - a great way to keep the memory of
one’s family home close to them, especially if they’ve moved away.
So please do contact me if you would like to have me paint an original work just for you or as a gift for someone. Pricing for an original commission usually ranges from $200 to $400. I’d be glad to discuss everything with you and answer all your questions about the process prior to any commitment.
If you like my artwork already, you’ll be happy with an original painting created for you, to honor a memory, or a beloved place or pet.
For years I have created paintings that I then design into holiday cards for several
different private collectors. Shown here are a few of the paintings that my clients
have asked for, with the bird of their choice in a setting fitting to their home
state.
