Colorful Animals

Originals/Prints/Commissions

Animals are near and dear to my heart and life just wouldn't not be the same without the pets that I call "family".  My style of mixed media painting lends itself to celebrating the colorful energy that our pets have brought into our lives.  If you think so too, please get in touch with me about painting your favorite pet(s).

 

Commissions begin at $150.

Look for prints of my paintings COMING SOON!

Mixed Media Tea Cup Chihuahua

Mixed Media Tea Cup Chihuahua

In these paintings, I mix multiple medias such as acrylic paint, collage, stamped and hand-painted papers, etc. There are numerous layers to them and something, somewhere to see, each time you look. Your pet's portrait can be individualized with words, images, etc., worked into it, that are part of their unique personality. Prices begin at $175, depending on size, amount of customization and number of pets. These are created on wooden art panels that are ready to hang. They can be framed, but that is optional as I wrap the painting around the edges of the frame.

Art Classes (adults)

Art Journaling/Mixed Media/Collage/Fun Portraits/Caricature

I want to teach you to unlock your creativity.  When you were a little kid, I bet you considered yourself an artist.  But we grow up (old???) and forget that we are still artists?  We're supposed to make art and create and get messy and explore and have fun!  Let's do that together.  I provide the instruction and invite you to work along with me in my 2-3 camera classroom (so you can see me and the work I'm doing on my table), and have fun, relax and just tap into your inner child again.

Come see what i'ts all about...

Currently, I teach beginning and advanced caricature classes on Outschool.com for learners aged 9-14. $15-18 per 1 hour class.  Once they take the beginning class, if they enjoy it and want to improve, I hold a weekly class where we hone in on different aspects of caricature, learn from other cariature artist's styles, etc.

My new class, "Drawing & Painting a Dog Caricature" is now available on Outschool as well.
