​My Happiness Is… series began after my father’s dog Sky passed away in 2014. I painted a portrait of him for Christmas. As I worked on it, he rescued two more dogs. So I painted them as well. I then decided to paint portraits as gifts for each family member and some close friends to take care of the holidays. Before I knew it, I had 12 portraits and started getting commissions for others. After a year, I had painted 36 dogs.  By then it was time to get cats on board too,  so I started the Nine Lives series.  

​They are incredible paintings to work on – very joyful. Even when it’s for a pet that’s passed on,  I find them very healing and comforting to work on for me.  And presenting the paintings is an even more rewarding act. The recipient usually has tears, but in a good way.  Our animals touch us in deep ways  I’m honored to reproduce a small amount of  that connection through these paintings.
