Photographs are snapshots from your life. Painted Portraits make those snapshots into heirlooms that can be passed from generation to generation.

Originally painted or sketched portraits can show much more of a person's personality than photographs can capture in the small instant that you are in front of the camera.

My purpose and passion is to help you decide whether you want to capture a fading photographic memory of a departed loved one and turn it into a vibrant and living portrait that will live a long life or whether you have a child or pet or family that you would like to have captured in an original portrait either from a photograph or from a live sitting.
