For the past six years, I have been an animal portrait artist. I work in watercolor, ink, or a mix of both media. I include the term "portrait" in my self-description, because I see every animal as a unique individual, with a personality which shows in his or her face and expressions. I find animals endlessly enjoyable to study in detail, and to reproduce artistically. While my personal history is deeply bound up with dogs, my feeling of kinship with the entire animal kingdom is the driving force behind the development of my style and thematic choices. My goal is for each portrait to communicate each being's unique individuality, and innately spiritual nature.

Until last year, I was taking commissioned portraits, and the majority of my animal pieces are presently hanging in private collections. However, I have become so deeply engaged in the process of writing my interconnected family-saga series of fantasy-romance novels, that for the present, I no longer feel that I have the time available to take on requests.
I will be continuing to create animal portraits as I have leisure, and according to the inspiration of the moment.
My cookbook, THE WHOLESOME DOG BISCUIT: A Barker's Dozen, has allergen-free dog biscuit recipes, and is charmingly illustrated with sketches of important dogs from my own life. Book includes detailed baking instructions, a section on allergens, and short biographical sketches of all the dogs illustrated.
Also, not illustrated, but with tasty vegan recipes:
THE WHOLESOME OVEN, Book One: Cookies THE WHOLESOME OVEN, Book Two: Muffins, Coffee Cakes, and more..
