Commissions
There’s something truly special about turning a moment, a memory or a beloved companion into art. My commissions are created with care, connection and a deep love for capturing personality, whether it’s a treasured pet, a family member or a meaningful gift for someone you adore.
Each piece is crafted by hand in my studio, with attention to detail, gentle storytelling and a style that feels heartfelt and timeless. Clients often tell me their portraits become keepsakes that the whole family loves.
If you’re dreaming of a custom artwork for a birthday, celebration, memorial or simply because your heart wants it, you’re in the right place. Let’s create something beautiful together.

'Missy'
Graphite on paper .... a surprise momento for a Grandparent

'Tilly'
My son absolutely loved the drawing. He said it's probably the best gift he's ever had! (And we give him great birthday gifts!) He noticed and appreciated all your detailed work, and commented especially on how you had captured the likeness of Tilly's eyes. He is thrilled with his gift.
Thank you again for allowing us to give him something so very special that he will always have. Maureen
