ENDANGERED: Fine Art & Photography Contest 2021 Submission

My hope is that the emotions I feel, in the creation of each piece of art, will come through to those who view them and something in that painting will speak to each viewer on a very personal level. I have a strong passion to paint animals; I can see their innocence and personalities. My ability to see the compassion and understanding in their eyes allows me to paint beautiful, lifelike portraits and works of art. All animals' eyes painted in my work, are in a style that gives them a voice that otherwise cannot be heard. Achieving the voice, is what adds another dimension to their presence on the canvas. Ask any artist, and they will say that the eyes are what give the subject a soul. I agree but also feel that the composition of the subject, the expression, and surroundings all play a role in achieving their voice. Now as an independent artist, I specialize in acrylic and pastel paintings. I create works of art featuring animals, wildlife, and pets.
