I specialize in oil-painted portraits of people and pets created on museum-quality linen, in a curated range of sizes, with care that goes into every decision from first brushstroke to final packaging. A commissioned portrait from my studio is not a product. It is a one-of-one original work, made specifically for you, meant to outlast both of us.
Commission slots are limited each month. Subscribers to Studio Notes receive first access.
