Beautiful Miss Phoebe is now finished! So many mixed emotions. I'm happy and yet, so sad to see her leave. A bit of my heart goes into each portrait and now, Phoebe will be going home - and that's exactly where she belongs. ❤️

Getting close to finishing Phoebe's portrait! If you've been considering having a portrait created of your beloved family member(s), now is the time! I have one - and possibly two slots available before the holidays. Reach out via DM or email [email protected]. ❤️🐩

Little by little, bit by bit, darling Phoebe is taking shape. Honestly, I don't think there's anything cuter than a Toy Poodle's face -especially a parti-poodle and especially one as sweet as adorable Phoebe! Stay tuned!❤️🐩

A portrait that's going to be near and dear to my heart - introducing the start of "Miss Phoebe." Commissioned by dear friends (whom I've known since childhood) to honor their darling Toy Poodle and those who loved her. ❤️🐩

Drum roll....
Ridge's portrait is complete! Isn't he just something? You know, there's nothing quite like having the supermodel of the dog world as your subject! Big thank you's to my client who trusted me to create her beautiful boy. ❤️🐩

Guys, could this boy get any more handsome? I used at least 8 different hues of red, burgundy, violet and pinks to create the three-dimensional "puckered" look in his bow tie and I absolutely love the way it turned out. ❤️🐩

So many colors in beautiful Ridge's coat - where the placement of every strand and curl matters. ❤️🐩

OMG - check out the photo that my client just sent to me! Sisters Layla and Emery all dressed up in their new frame. So beautiful. Their framer did a fabulous job - I love the colors my client chose. Such stunning girls ❤️.

I am absolutely loving the way handsome Mr. Ridge is coming together now. If you look closely, you'll see hints of violet, sky blue and even burnt sienna in his incredibly stunning coat. I can't wait to see more! ❤️🐩

Almost three years ago to the day my wonderful client trusted me to create a portrait of her two beautiful Standard Poodles, Winnie and Bear. I love them both.
It was an honor and I'm so grateful for the opportunity.
