About Us:

I grew up in a sporting family and have ridden race horses, fox hunters, & hunter-jumpers. I like hunting and fishing too. Therefore, the love of sporting art is in my genes.

I resigned from teaching art in public schools this past winter and am now painting full time.

Services:

I paint portraits of pets from photographs that I take of your dog, cat or horse. You may send me photos and I’ll see if I can create a portrait from your pictures. I can’t guarantee that I can work from your photos.

I paint portraits of people who sit for me to photograph, or in person during a series of sittings or both. I much prefer to meet my subjects rather than paint strait from a photo.

All of my portraits are done in oil. I offer some decorative work such as bar stools, fire screens, door stops, and furniture painting.

I have various shows in different cities such as Upperville, Virginia, Columbia, Aiken, Camden & Charleston South Carolina. I prefer to travel to the patron, see the subject, meet the subject and paint from life or photograph or both.
