A custom painting should be more than a copy of a photograph.
Together, we'll create a painting that's uniquely yours—bringing together the places you love, the colors of your home, and the details that make your horse, dog, or cat unmistakably themselves.
Send the photos you have. I'll review them and let you know if I need any additional photographs.
Then I'll recommend the size, composition, and background that will bring your portrait to life. You don't have to figure it all out—that's my job.
If someone else took the photographs, please make sure you have permission to use them.
Before any oils are applied, you'll receive a digital proof showing exactly what the finished portrait will look like—their expression, the colors, the whole composition. Nothing moves forward until you say, "That's them."
Within six to eight weeks, your custom painting is ready to ship—and ready to become part of your home.
This is the piece you'll never take down.
Your home is more than a collection of beautiful things. It's a reflection of the life you've built and the ones you love.
A custom painting is a daily reminder of the horse who carried you, the dog who greeted you at the door, or the cat who always found the sunny spot beside you.
Because the people and animals we love never go out of style. Ready to start?
"We knew Bruce Wayne was slowing down. He's been with us since before we were married—through job changes, moves, everything. I wasn't ready to lose him, and I wanted to remember him like this. Full of life. Still that goofy, lovable guy.
When the portrait arrived, I cried. Kathy captured him perfectly—his expression, his energy... This will always be part of our home. Long after he's gone."
"I am SPEECHLESS. Now, that this portrait resides in my home with me, it's like she was always here. This version of me that Kathy Morley sees, reminds me to see myself with the same eyes.
There is something magic in Kathy's work, both in her incredible fine artistry and in her ability to imbue her work with a certain otherworldly essence.
It's like she knew what my house looked like, too! Thank you Kathy for touching my heart & reminding me of something so special inside, I cannot put it into words!"
"Luna was my constant companion for 16 years. I sent Kathy probably 50 photos—closeups, far away, blurry ones from when she was a kitten.
She somehow pulled it all together into this stunning portrait that looks exactly like her.
It's not just a painting. It's Luna. I cry every time I look at it, but in a good way."
"You would never know that that was not painted with my daughter in front of you. It is so her. Down to every detail. Her smile, her daintiness, the way she sat. Her hands, the way her legs are crossed. There's nothing I would change.
It's like having her here.
There's no more 'one more.' But I feel like I got one more—and it's my favorite.
I think she would love it. I feel like she's saying, 'Mom...that's the best painting of me.' She'd love it."
Ever wonder how a collection of snapshots becomes a finished painting?
I'll show you.
