About Me

I actually started out as a college English major, and used my degree to develop a career as a writer and editor, primarily of corporate communications and marketing brochures, with a little journalism thrown in on the side. I was able to do this for years on a freelance basis while raising my three daughters. Once they hit school age, however, I started casting about for a career that was more creative, more fulfilling . . . . well, just more.

I have always had a huge love for animals (especially dogs), and a love of art. Eventually, I figured out that I could connect the two interests by painting pet portraits. That's how Rainbowdog was born. I can't think of a subject more fun and full of joy to paint. I love learning about the unique personality of each of my furry clients, and translating that onto canvas.

I work in acrylics, which are water-based and quick drying, allowing me to be very flexible as I work and make changes as I go along. My paintings are colorful, bold and modern in feeling. And while many portraits on the market today are digitally created by computer, Rainbowdog portraits are completely hand painted. I work hard to create a keepsake for my clients that lasts a lifetime.
