OWL-ter Egos

A client gave me one of the most fun requests this holiday season: give each member of her family an OWL-ter ego in a 9x12 fine art painting and prepare the image to be used on their Christmas card!

Here is the result and I think it turned out pretty cool. In case you were wondering, the one daughter is showing off her jazz-hands... or in this case jazz-wings.

Portrait of a Lady... and her family

I am not always able to take on family portraits, but some families are way too cute to pass up!

Case in point: Johanna and Ryan celebrated their 5th anniversary this fall. To help celebrate, Laureen and Doug (Johanna's parents) hired me to create a family portrait in their honor.

Finished and framed; wrapped and boxed; this portrait is almost ready to ship to it's family. Thanks for the inspiration Johanna, Ryan, Ava and Oliver!
