Custom Dog Portraits

June 1, 2015 by riasharon

Dog Portraits

Happy first day of June! You know what that means, right? That’s 21 days until… Father’s Day!

I don’t make ties so if that was what you were planning on getting dad, I can’t help you. I DO, however, make these adorable custom dog portraits that would make really great gifts for Dog Daddies.

If you’re interested in having one delivered in time for Father’s Day, please place your order this week to ensure delivery.
Shipping is included. 🙂

p.s. If you’re wondering if I’ll be making printable Father’s Day cards, the answer is… probably. Get on the mailing list and you’ll be the first to know!

Crazy Dog Lady

May 5, 2015 by riasharon

dog-portraitsYes, it’s true. I’m one of those. I’m so crazy about dogs that I make dog portraits. You know that sense of peace that people report when they are in their bliss… that happens, when I’m drawing and painting puppy faces! And now that I reflect on this, it always has for as long as I can remember. The first portrait I ever did was an oil painting of my great aunt’s Llasa Apso. I was 9.

I’m so dog crazy that my kids know that if there’s a stray dog on the loose, I’m going to stop and try to coax it into the car and secretly hope that I get to keep it. There was that one time I almost “rescued” a scraggly and filthy three-legged shitzu… from it’s own front yard! (sheepish grin) but that’s a story for another post.

So if you’re crazy about your pups (dress them in crazy outfits on halloween, take them to puppy spas, throw them birthday parties), I won’t judge. I’m totally with you! And guess what, you’re not alone! I’ve made over a dozen of these dog portraits in the last week and have three more commissions to go!

Wild and Precious

A little about me

By day, I work in higher ed and in my free time I make art, read great books, walk around with my crazy dog, and play chauffeur to a couple of not-so-littles.

I teach classes on creativity and inspiration on Skillshare. My art is available for sale in the form of printables on Etsy and fine art on Minted. I also love painting puppy portraits.
