Find a pro artist for custom art

Hello, I am a painter and sculptor with 40 years of experience. My work has been widely shown and published. I create realistic, modern commissions and portraits in oil, watercolor, acrylic as well as bronze sculpture. I can easily work from your photos and discuss any changes you might like. I would love to create a special, cherished piece just for you.

I have been painting for many years, primarily animals; pets and wildlife. Some years ago I was hit with an illness that left me unable to walk, speak or coordinate my hands. Making myself work to get back into painting has been very therapeutic in my recovery and I am now enjoying painting almost every day again...

I am an artist specializing in figure and portrait painting. In my portraits, I strive to capture the essence of human character and the fleeting emotions that surface in a moment. I seek the stories behind the eyes and faces, aiming for my work to create an immediate, striking impact that captivates viewers at first glance. Beyond this initial impression, I layer my work with intricate details that invite thoughtful contemplation. My portraits focus extensively on the living elements—such as skin and eyes—where the fine detailing symbolizes the intricacies and complexities of the human soul. Although my portraits are highly detailed, they maintain a distinct painterly quality, deliberately steering away from a photographic likeness.
