Finally, a photo of the Sanctuary One horse painting of Chance. This painting was inspired by a photograph taken by a sanctuary photographer and I love the perspective! More of his body is visible in the photo, but I just had to crop in close and focus on his sweet and funny face – just […]
After finishing up a few dog commissions, I wanted to paint something silly – and a friend at the art center had just finished a pastel painting of a goldfish, which looked like fun..so she loaned me her reference photo. I changed up his colors a bit, but his google-eyes made me laugh.
A great surprise for a Sunday morning – I was featured in a blog post by Dawn Diovera of Horse and Man. She and her family visited my studio at the Ashland Art Center while they were in Southern Oregon on vacation – and they also visited Sanctuary One! Here is the direct link to […]
This is my most recent commission & memorial painting celebrating Casey and Rosie – mother and daughter Westies. It is my first painting featuring two dogs and unlike most of my other commissions, it also has a bit of a landscape in it. I like how Rosie’s muzzle hair is blowing up from the wind, […]
Boo is my second Labradoodle portrait this summer. I love all of her hair! Boo is from Philadelphia and I donated this commission to the annual Peter’s Place fundraiser. Peter’s Place provides support to children/families who lose a parent.

I’m just trying to decide which images to use for the Cat and Other Animal Galleries on the home page (I am currently thinking Ellie’s Cat and […]
This recently completed painting is a late birthday present to my sister-in-law and brother-in-law. Finally, Monk is finished & at his new home!
I’m moving into a new studio space upstairs at the Ashland Art Center (next to Village Shoes) – Studio 3B, which I am sharing with Laura Lawrence! I will still be painting from my home studio, but will split my time between the two locations. The new space is slowly getting there – it only […]
I will be painting at the Ashland Art Center (upstairs) this Friday from 5-8PM during Art Walk. Come upstairs and say hello! I will be working on a painting Tucker, of one of my own dogs. Many artists will be doing demonstrations of their work that evening – it’s always a fun event! And, thanks […]
There are over 100 entries (paintings, drawings, collage and digitally enhanced photography) featuring “naughty” dogs – my entry is #35 (Hidden Agenda) – a painting of my Brussels Griffon, Oscar, who is always a bit ornery and naughty, but never the slightest bit remorseful – luckily he is very cute! Voting began on Monday and […]
