It was just a gift for a friend and now it's been more than 50 commissions for portraits. All of my pet portraits are hand painted on stretched canvas and range in size from 8x10 to 16x20. Requests for portraits have been for wedding gifts, gifts for students headed off to college, or to honor the life and memory of those no longer with us.
