My books are now open for commissions! Original Watercolor Paintings are the perfect gift for someone who is difficult to shop for.
Each commissioned watercolor is created with love. I use your photographs as reference for your painting.

Before I start any commissions, I require a 25% non-refundable retainer and signed contract. Once those are received, the process starts for your painting! Before I even begin painting, I send you a couple of preliminary sketches for you to choose and approve before paint touches the paper. I will take in-progress photos of your painting, because who wouldn't like to see how it develops?!?! I will work with you for any payment plans, and once all payment is received, I will mail your painting to you (I'll definitely send you a final image for approval before shipping) and you will receive a tracking number. Please allow 6 - 8 weeks for the completion of your commission; they take time because they are ... well ... a work of art!
The photo(s) you supply also play a factor into the quality of the final painting. The best photos are clear, non-flash, and true to color. Actually, the more photographs you send me, the better idea I have of the personality of your pet and the better the painting will portray them.
And if you're wondering if I will paint a pet who has passed on ... ABSOLUTELY! I find it very rewarding to create something that can help you remember your beloved fur baby. There have been many times that the collector has come to tears because the watercolor brings back so many memories.

Testimonials
We absolutely love having our one of a kind portrait of our dogs hanging in our living room. When I sit down to relax with a glass of wine at the end of a busy day I love looking down at my dogs at my feet, then looking up and seeing my dogs above my fire place. I will certainly be contacting Elizabeth if I ever need another piece done." ~ Natalie & Tom
