Title:          HAV A NESE VIEW

Medium:    Fabric Collage Art/18” x 24” Studio Wood Panel

This portrait of my niece’s favorite dog, Winnie, depicts her intensity and forward-thinking nature. She provides much joy and laughter to my sister’s family. Winnie was very enjoyable to work on. Each day in my studio, her happy and intellectual nature came through her photograph.  Nudging me forward with her spunk and humor. 

Allow me to "paint" a portrait of your animal companion. With an eye for expressive textiles, I capture the essence of each subject by painting with fabric. My layered art is purely authentic using timeless techniques to create lasting visually inspiring pieces.

I will work with you to customize the piece to your satisfaction. My goal is set at representing your precious pet's personality, to the best of my ability. A project starts with a conversation to learn about the story you want to tell about your dear one ( pack or pride) in a one-of-a-kind, commissioned piece. The process is usually inspired by a photograph, sketched with the essence of the subject, a color palette is selected, and the textiles are carefully prepared and pieced together by hand.

 It's a process that brings me great joy. My wish is to transfer this heart-made energy into your life.
