Make a fleeting moment last forever:
I enjoy creating commissioned paintings that capture fleeting moments, making them eternal treasures that can be cherished forever. Whether it be a classic portrait, a pet portrait, or a nostalgic scene, I would be delighted to have the opportunity to help you preserve your special memories.
I kindly request high-quality, well-lit images to ensure the best possible outcome. It is important to note that I work from photo references and do not combine multiple references together, as this can lead to conflicting colors and disrupt the overall harmony of the painting. My belief is that a great painting not only tells a story but also evokes emotions. Therefore, your references do not need to be perfectly staged or positioned, as the most meaningful paintings are the ones that authentically reflect the beauty of life as you see it.
