Hey everyone! Today I’m posting a pet portrait that I was commissioned to make. I was referred to her by a dear friend on a group in Facebook. It’s amazing what referrals and recommendations can do. I appreciate them all! I painted a pet portrait of her cat and dog together out of watercolor. I used photos for reference. Below are some of the process photos of the portrait. I love painting animals! If you are in the need for a pet portrait, send me a message for a quote!
I can’t believe it’s already Wednesday! Today we have our 100th snow day already this winter (…lol) and it’s my youngest son’s 4th birthday. It’s so crazy he is 4! He is such a silly, adventurous and fearless (most of the time) boy. He is completely opposite of his older brother, but I wouldn’t have it any other way. I can’t wait to see what the next year brings for him. Even though we have a dog, he loves cats. So I thought I would create a piece that involved a cat just for him celebrating his birthday. I drew this piece digitally using the Procreate app on my iPad. Enjoy! Happy Birthday little man!
Hey everyone! This past weekend was basically a wash….literally it rained all weekend and it’s still raining. So a lot of our activities that were planned were cancelled. But hey, what can you do? Here is a commissioned piece I did for a friend to put on a moving card. The animals are their 3 actual pets. I used photos of them and tried to make the likeness as much close as I could. They made postcards to mail their new address to everyone after moving into their new house. I think they turned out really cute. If you need custom art, just shoot me a message!
I can’t believe it’s already October 1st! I feel like school just started. Here’s a quick sketch that I created just for today. I drew it out digitally using my Procreate app.
Look out on Wednesday for a chance to win a giveaway for one of my art prints. Do you have a favorite? Let me know your pick and maybe that will be one the I choose!
Happy Sunday everyone! It’s so hot here in Kansas City. If I had my choice, I would be in a nice swimming pool all day long. Maybe that is the reason a lot of my artwork has to do with water lately… During the month of May, I saw a lot of artists do Mermay. It’s basically a month devoted to drawing and creating art that has to do with mermaids. I was a little late to the party and missed the memo, but I still wanted to create a mermaid piece. I thought I would do my own interpretation of a mermaid cat. This sweet kitty was drawn out and colored in digitally on my Procreate app. I just put this up on my Shops today! There is 25% off my Society6 shop till the end of the day! Use the code JUNEART at the S6 checkout.
