Our new pup, Mati. He is a happy BT and like Fatsa, has begun to inspire new paintings :-)

About AngiePets are such lovable characters.
Faithful and happy to see us, they bring much joy to each one of our days & lives. They also have a mischievous side to their personalities at times, which is very endearing & precious. Growing up with a love for furry friends, (dogs, cats, guinea pigs, etc) it seemed natural they would become the muses for my paintings. Over the years as a child, I befriended many furry friends in the neighborhood along with those who made their home with my family & me. Art has always been a part of my life and has been a healing outlet. I graduated from Minnesota State University~Moorhead with a BFA in Illustration. Combining my love for pets and for art brings me much happiness. In a world which needs more smiles, I love helping spread happiness to others. Through losses, I learned at a young age how precious and short life can be. I am located just outside Seattle WA and paint portraits for people and pets in the US and abroad. My Boston Terrier, Fatsa was an inspiration for many of my whimsical artworks available on etsy. He was full of life, heart, soul & truly a work of art. In memory of Fatsa, 2003-2017.

Custom Portraits |
I accept commission requests & many custom works include
creative personalized backgrounds. I enjoy the process of working with people to create an original artwork which captures the physical characteristics & personality of their beloved pet, and also the environment he or she enjoys as well, such as the beach, a backyard, cityscape, or favorite cozy sofa. My goal with each commissioned portrait is to create a personal image, one which you can look at and feel the essence of your pet has been captured, along with a sense of energy & life. I work intuitively and combine ideas from photo references, descriptions, and imagination. All of my artworks are meant to bring smiles as our pets bring us smiles each & every day. |
