Virginia, United States
I guess you could say I was born an artist! My intrinsic artistic abilities appeared around the age of 1½ years old when I began scribbling colorful imagery on my bedroom walls, later carving designs and cryptic messages on my parent’s fine furniture. Over the years, I have continued my artistic endeavors working as a monotype printmaker, encaustic painter, and mixed media artist.

Commission Work The Bear Hunting Dogs

The Bear Hunting Dogs  
oil 8x10 inches


A co-worker, petite and cute, goes bear hunting in Craig county on her free weekends with her boyfriend. She enjoys it so much and just loves the hunting dogs. These are the first two of the dogs she commissioned me to paint for her boyfriends birthday. I have to say, I really enjoyed doing something different, and something in oil.

Very nice Gina. I like the way you painted them. Did they sit for you... lol. I think not. Maybe for a pocketful of doggy treats?
