“Blue Point Himalayan Cat”
Madison, the Blue Point Himalaya Cat, stood tall and regal after a thorough grooming session. His luxurious fur was perfectly groomed, showcasing the beauty of his unique breed. With a slight turn of his face, Madison struck a pose that captured the elegance and grace of his species.
A memorial commission was undertaken to create a pastel painting of Madison, and the owner and client provided several pictures of their beloved cat, even including a lock of his fur as a reference. Extensive research on the Blue Point Himalaya Breed was conducted to ensure accuracy in capturing Madison’s distinctive characteristics. The client’s discussions about their cherished pet also provided valuable insights.
Based on the approved sketch to scale, the pastel painting was meticulously crafted. The background was intentionally left unpainted, as Madison Blue, as he was fondly called, was the main focus of the artwork. The heavy art paper with its textured surface added depth and dimension to Madison’s fur, truly capturing his magnificence.

“Essence of Bacchus”
Just after the clients had commissioned the pet portrait of their beloved Bacchus, the devastating news of his passing came only two days later. Bacchus, who held a cherished place in his owners’ hearts as a loving and happy companion, had succumbed to a brain tumor. This turn of events made the completion of the portrait all the more poignant and challenging.
As the owner recounted Bacchus’s life to the artist, she emphasized that Bacchus was more than just a pet; he was larger than life and had a special place in their hearts. The artist, determined to capture the “Essence of Bacchus,” focused on his expressive eyes and endearing smile, even at the age of thirteen. The goal was to portray Bacchus not just as a pet, but as a beloved family member and canine friend.

Despite the emotional weight of the experience, the completed painting now serves as a cherished memento that brings comfort and fond memories whenever the owners gaze upon it.

“Yorkshire Terrier” Portrait
This exquisite Yorkshire Terrier portrait captures the vibrant energy of a playful puppy named Twinkle Star. At 11 months old, she measured just 10 3/4 inches in height when seated and weighed a mere 2 1/2 lbs, not even tipping the scales at three pounds. The artist, inspired by Twinkle Star’s petite size and lively spirit, meticulously recreated her exact height in the original Yorkshire Terrier portrait pastel painting.

The pastel colors chosen for the portrait are a blend of light black and golden tones, skillfully applied to accentuate Twinkle Star’s endearing face, with her dark eyes and cute nose brought to life with the vibrant hues. The finishing touch is a vibrant red bow, adding a touch of playfulness and charm to the portrait.
