Dog Memory Keeper

Ways to start your art journey...

How to start a commission

Your dog's story deserves more than a photo tucked away on your phone. A handmade portrait turns the love, personality, and memories you share into meaningful artwork you can live with every day. If you have hair or ashes that you would like incorporated into your memorial artwork, please let me know.

Visit the Commissions tab at the top or send a photo to discuss options.

Horses and other animals

Every animal has a presence all its own. Through expressive color, movement, and carefully observed details, I create paintings that capture more than a likeness—I want you to feel the personality and spirit that make each animal unforgettable.
