PORTRAIT COMPLETED:
JULY 2022 Portrait size: 12" x 16" Michael contacted me back in April requesting a painting of his beloved cat Mindy, as a gift to his wife for their Golden wedding anniversary. He sent through a few photos, including the photo he had chosen for the reference image. A day or two later, he requested a second portrait of Mindy, having taken a few more photos of Mindy, and decided on two sizes; a 12" x 12" and a 12" x 16"
Reference image:
The reference image provided was a large, digital image, allowing me to zoom into the very small detail, allowing me to add that detail in the painting. This makes it easier for me to create a highly detailed painting. This means the painting is made up of numerous layers which include the fur, tonal values and the contrasts. Customer Testimonial:
Tuesday was a very special day, thanks, in no small part, to you. As I predicted, Maureen was both surprised & stunned by Mindy’s portraits & used too many superlative adjectives for me to accurately state here. Suffice it to say that “stunning”, ”amazing”, ”unbelievable” & “fantastic” were part of her reaction. She still cannot believe the detail on the portraits & how you can see “every hair”. We cannot thank you enough.

" I commissioned Karen to paint two acrylic portraits of our one-eyed rescue cat, Mindy, based upon photos that I had taken. These were a surprise Golden Wedding Anniversary present for my wife & we were both absolutely delighted with the final results; my wife described them as being absolutely stunning & was amazed by their detail & accurate colours, with every hair & whisker clearly visible. Karen kept me fully informed as the paintings progressed, via emails & a specially designed website, so that I could be part of each step of the process. She also compiled a video to help me select suitable frames, which perfectly complemented the colours of the completed paintings. I thoroughly recommend Karen to anyone wanting a very special piece of artwork; she is incredibly talented. "
