Beginning in 2026, each commission begins with a Design & Consultation Fee to cover the design phase, including consultation and mockups. Once the design is approved, the fee is credited toward the finished artwork.

While my 8x10 and 11×14 fine art prints are printed on archival paper and sealed with a top-tier UV + hydrophobic coating, some thoughtful care will help keep them vibrant for years to come.

Commissioning a custom painting is an exciting process, but one of the biggest questions clients face is: What size should I order?

Losing a pet is never easy. They’re not just companions; they’re part of our daily lives, woven into our routines, our homes, and our hearts. And while nothing can truly replace them, a portrait can bring a sense of comfort—a way to keep their presence close and celebrate the love you shared.

A portrait does more than capture a likeness—it tells a story. While a Signature Portrait highlights a subject against a simple background, a Storyscape goes deeper, placing them in a meaningful setting that reflects their life, personality, and memories.

If you’re interested in a full environmental background, I can custom create one for you. I also have a collection of previously painted backgrounds that can be used for your own commission for cost savings.

The truth is, you don’t need professional photos to create a meaningful painting. Whether you have old snapshots, digital pictures, or even cell phone images, I can help you honor your pet’s memory with a custom piece of art that captures their unique personality and spirit.

Here are a couple tips and tricks to get good results.
