Long time no see! Still over here doing pet portraits. This was a favorite I did recently. A cat named Chick-Fil-A.
I got to do double the portraiture of Coco, who by all accounts sounds like the most incredible dog. ❤️
Etsy shop is closed for a few weeks, but I’ll be back October 25th and open for holiday portraits!
Ode to Okra ~ since moving to the south, I have discovered its wonders.
Been quite a while since I did any field sketching, so I’m a little rusty, but getting back in the groove!
Teddy the miniature schnauzer is just too cute! Loved doing his portrait. ☺️
Sometimes you flip through old sketchbooks and find some gems! Pheasant practice for a commission a couple years back.
A different kind of pet portrait—Tulip the opossum! Her caretaker told me she was found as a baby and was blind, so she couldn’t be released to the wild. I had a lot of fun drawing those ears and that pink nose!
Hey y’all. Sometimes the inspiration to draw leaves me, while new ventures distract me. It’s been that way for a few months, during which I also neglected to show you some of my pet portraits from the holidays. So here are a couple of kitties that I drew this past year.
Hoping to get back to drawing regularly, especially living things of the leafy variety.
With a name like Diamond, it only made sense to paint her as royalty! I have to say, I have SO much fun looking at old paintings to find outfit inspiration for these. 👑💎
Bentley’s holiday portrait! 🐶 The shop is back open and portrait commissions are available! Hope you are all having a more positive new year.
Bailey’s portrait before being packaged up and sent to its new home! I loved drawing his adorable snowflake sweater.
Happy New Year’s Eve! After a year that was tumultuous for everyone, I hope the next year finds you enjoying life’s simple moments again. I am looking forward to returning to bird watching, foraging, and hiking in the warmer weather. Being an artist has made me a keen observer, and I hope to sharpen my skills in this next year!
I loved working on Nina, a beautiful Chartreux who lives in France. 🇫🇷 I have a stack of pet portraits I’d love to share now that Christmas has passed. Hope you all are having a great holiday season, if not with family, then with your furry friends!
Red-Breasted Nuthatch mini prints are back in stock! I also have one more magnet of this guy available. I’ll be closing my store for the year on 12/20, so if there’s something you’re eyeing, order soon!
The remaining Inktober originals from 2019 are on sale until my shop closes for the year on 12/20! Prints of all of them are on Society6!
I’m finishing up Christmas commissions, so there won’t be much new work posted until after the holidays, but I have some goodies that will be posted in the new year.
“Lily Siobhan” a very special and luxuriously fluffy kitty.
Holiday pet portraits are now closed! In order to get portraits done and mailed before Christmas, I’ve had to limit my queue this year. But I still have some prints and other items available in my shop. Thank you to everyone who had ordered something from me this year! You make it possible for me to do what I love.
More magnets — Red-breasted Nuthatches this time! They seriously look so cute climbing upside down on the fridge. On my shop!
The mini prints of these fellows actually sold out before I posted about them, but a restock is on the way! Along with some new printed items that I’m excited about. ✨
