One Eyed Pirate Jack
“I truly cannot say thank you enough or express how deeply touched I am by this gorgeous painting of my boy! I honestly can’t stop staring at him in awe of how perfect he’s been captured in art. Not only his features but his personality. His soul. It’s all there.
When I opened it up and saw him staring back at me, I literally fell to the floor in tears. The boy I had lost felt in some way back with me. Every day since, this work of priceless art has helped me heal and feel close to my angel boy.”

Misty
“I just wanted to let you know that the portrait of Misty was truly a surprise for Mike—and he was blown away by it. First, he could not get over your brilliance in capturing Misty. He so appreciated your talent and detail of the portrait. Then there was the emotional impact—he said it nearly brought tears to his eyes, both happy & sad, to remember her and miss her at the same time. Your work is powerful! And we’re so grateful to be able to enjoy it in our home. Thanks again!”

“Shirley has never met my cats. Yet from a photograph she not only created an uncanny likeness, she perfectly captured each cat’s personality. It’s like she connects with her subjects animal lover spirit to animal spirit. What Shirley delivers is so much more than a portrait. It’s the 3D essence of your pet in 2D.”

“Shirley painted Charlie’s portrait as my gift to my oldest and dearest friend, who lost Charlie suddenly in 2018. The care, attention to detail, and respect that Shirley showed for sweet Charlie’s image — and for what it would mean to my friend — was extraordinary. Thank you.”
