Sea Shell


Pencil on vellum. 9X12

Floating To the End


Watercolor and pencil on paper. 9x11
This is an image I did for my sister. The idea behind it is that this women has died and is floating down a river to death as. The irises are representative of death rather than a hooded figure.
The flowers are a harbinger of death. She is dropping them in the river as she approaches the end of the river. I wanted it to be sad and yet peacful, because death all comes to us and hopefully we can all aproach it with grace.

Treehouses


Acrylic and ink on paper. 7.5X10

Commission Miniature Portrait

I am currently taking on commissions to paint miniature portraits of people or pets. I paint on antique ivory, mammoth ivory, or Bristol paper board. I then frame miniatures to a style I think best displays the portrait.

Portraits vary in price depending on size and surface the portrait is painted on, here is a rundown of costs-

(sizes are an approximate)
3x2 portrait on antique ivory $200.00.

3x2 portrait on mammoth ivory $200.00

3x2 portrait on Bristol board $150.00

Please dont hesitate to contact me via email to discuss ideas or desires you might have for me to commission and I begin creating your very own unique miniature portrait heirloom.
