Mother's Day — Possums
Don't have a pet 'possum? I'm happy to make your favorite animal—wild or tame. Or a family of animals, like this one: Mother's Day, the mama possum and her seven babies. This rather complicated piece takes a little longer to create, as each baby is made separately and attached. 12"x6"x6"

Welcome to my site for creating pet portraits!
I love capturing the bright essence of pets in clay because I know how dear they are to their people. Whether you have a dog, cat, horse, hamster or gerbil, anything is possible. If your favorite animal is an elephant, lemur or anteater, let’s talk about that, too.
I don’t use any molds or previous work. Everything is unique and new for you.
I have loved animals—and drawn them—since I was three years old. I now focus on pets and wild animals, appreciating their unique personalities and senses of humor.
Working from your photos, together we’ll get the look as I send you pictures of my progress. The more images you can send, the more accurate the portrait, especially if your precious pet has lots of colors, markings or spots.
Prices start at $375 at 8” tall.

Kimberly Abella-Cree
For Kimberly's Sculpture5.0I could not be MORE PLEASED with my experience! Franny communicated frequently with me to ensure she got every detail worked out to my specifications. She asked for feedback and clarifications when needed. Her craftsmanship and expertise were immediately evident as she sent progress photos during various stages of the project. She established an ambitious timeline & worked so diligently to get my package delivered ahead of schedule. This fragile clay sculpture was packaged with as much care as I imagine she took with the creation itself and arrived across the country well-protected and completely intact. She informed me when it was shipped and provided a tracking number for my convenience. Every aspect of this experience was fantastic and I am already planning future projects with Franny!
