Animal Portraiture

"If the portrait becomes a success, two souls have become immortal"

The artist has painted many famous horses such as His Highness, glorious winner of the Hannovarian Stallions. Dressage World Champion Satchmo from Isabel Werth. Polydor, the Legend of the National Stut of Westfalen. The painting has found a special place beneath the preparation of Polydor in the national museum of the horse in Westfalen.

Of course, every pet is welcome to become a portrait and to bring an everlasting memory of your life partner.

The artwork should be more than a picture - it shall capture the soul and the personality. It shows what is to see beyond what the photograph can ever possibly capture.

The artist welcomes your inquiries for custom portraiture. You may contact her by visiting her Contact page.
