Meet Chow Chow 💕

Did you know that Chow Chows have distinctive blue-black tongues? It’s one of the many things that makes this breed so unique.

Sweet Chow Chow has crossed the Rainbow Bridge, and his family has asked me to create a memorial portrait to honor his life and the love they shared. 🌈🐾

One of my favorite parts of painting pets is hearing about their personalities, quirks, and special memories. Those stories help me connect with each pet and bring their spirit to life on canvas in a meaningful way.

What was your favorite thing about a pet you’ve loved? ❤️

Beginning a new portrait of Jameson — a Border Collie Doodle with the soul of a prince. ✨

As I prepare to paint him, I spend time learning not just his features, but who he truly is. His mom shared stories that immediately brought him to life in my mind:

Jameson is shy at first… until you throw a toy. Then you are his friend forever. He glides silently through the house and across the yard with remarkable grace, loving long morning walks, tennis balls, and the people closest to him with his whole heart.

Part Border Collie intelligence, part Poodle elegance — and entirely unforgettable.

I especially loved hearing about his agility days, weaving through poles like a champion, and the story of the day a bobcat injured him badly… yet he calmly pranced back into the house as though nothing had happened. Strong, stoic, sensitive, and deeply loving.

These are the moments and emotions I hold onto while painting. A portrait is never just about capturing a likeness — it is about honoring the spirit within.

I cannot wait to share Jameson’s portrait as it comes to life on canvas. 🤍

Once your commission is confirmed, the first step is choosing the perfect photo ✨

I look for a clear photo of the eyes, good lighting, and that look your dog gives you 🐾💛
Maybe it’s the funny expression that makes you laugh every time, or the serious look they only give to their person… you know the one.

Those little details are what make your portrait feel truly personal and bring their personality to life on canvas 🎨

Don’t worry if you can’t decide between photos — I’m always happy to help choose the best one together.

Love your furry friend 🐾🤍
Does your dog get nervous when it rains?
Today, it’s my turn to comfort her through the thunder and cuddles.

Do you go through this with your pup too?

I pour the love you have for your pup into every brushstroke, creating a portrait that captures their sweet spirit forever. 🎨🐕
