I enjoy drawing animals, especially pets.  My drawings are realistic and detailed.  I use graphite pencils, tinted graphite pencils, charcoal and conté pastels.  The materials I use depend on the subject.  The paper is of the best quality and matted with acid-free materials ready for a purchased frame.  You can request a particular material or style by referring to the samples shown on the website.

Since I usually need to work from your photos, it’s important that you give me photos that show your pet’s personality.  I also need to know your pet’s traits – sweet, naughty, sneaky, cuddly – all the things that make us love them so much.  I will email you a picture of the portrait when it is finished.  If you don’t like it, I will change it or cancel the order.

If you live in the Ottawa area, I'd be happy to photograph your pet and let you choose the picture that best represents their personality.

Some of the portraits on this website are for sale.  The prices are shown.
