I'm a professional artist specializing in fine art paintings, pet portraits and illustration. I have a fine arts degree with a major in graphic design. I've had over thirty-five years experience in creating custom artwork and design. I create artwork using a wide range of media: traditional watercolor, acrylic, oils, and pen and ink as well as modern hand-painted digital paintings on canvas and archival paper. I use only the highest quality archival materials in creating my work.
Once you choose the subject of your custom painting, we'll work together to make it a reality. Will it be a portrait of your child, a favorite pet or animal, a house portrait or a treasured family memory? I'll closely involve you in the creative process throughout the various stages of painting. With your suggestions and input, every detail will be brought to perfection. It's great fun for you to see your painting develop, and working together in this way we'll create the exact "masterpiece" YOU have in mind!
Painting is my passion; I'm committed to creating the most heartwarming and elegant paintings that I possibly can for my customers, who attest to my patience, close attention to perfection and ability to please!

For Realistic pencil drawingWe came up with our idea last minute for Christmas after our son-in-law won the State playoffs med December. We reached out after putting the idea to see if anyone was interested and could possibly get it completed before Christmas. MJ reached out to us and surpassed all of our expectations! Our Christmas is extra special due to her hard work and timely return. She is a true blessing! Thank you MJ and Merry Christmas to all!!! Carl and Pam Robbins

For Inquiry about a custom pet paintingMJ was such a joy to work with! I had a pretty unique custom pet art project that I wasn't quite sure how to make it into reality, when I found MJ and shared the idea with her, she immediately started providing many ideas, examples and mockups to help me visualize it. She had many choices of the medium too, and we picked a beautiful wood cut out format in the end that I'd never have imagined to begin with! The creation process was smooth and full of fun, not being an artistic person myself, I asked for her expert opinions on many of my thoughts and she's given me such great advice, that the final art piece turned out stunning :) I already have another project in mind that I'd love to work with her on, I'll definitely be coming back to MJ in the near future!

For Shelly's IllustrationMJs work is stunning, our project has exceeded my expectations beyond words. I was hesitant to do this all online but I promise, it was so easy with MJ, she communicated every step and always made sure I was in agreement before moving to the next step. And the care that went in to shipping, it was seriously impressive!
I will cherish this painting for my lifetime and I’m sure it will become an heirloom, it’s that impressive.
