ORIGINAL ART • CREATED FOR YOU

Work with Cheri to create a one-of-a-kind piece of art.

A beloved animal. A favorite photograph. A memory worth keeping. Cheri creates original commissioned artwork that captures the character and beauty of your subject.

I work from photographs, so clear detail and accurate colors are especially important. I may combine several photographs—one for the pose, another for expression, markings, or color—to create your custom piece.

The starting prices below are for one animal with a simple background. For additional subjects or a more detailed composition, please contact me to discuss your ideas and pricing.

Ready to hang. Each painting is created on stretched canvas. You may also choose framing through your local frame shop; framing is not provided by Cheri.

Any physical reference photographs you provide will be returned to you. Gift certificates are available—contact Cheri to discuss a gift or your artwork.

Choosing reference photos

The best photographs preserve the details that matter

You do not need a professional photo session. Clear photographs that show expression, coloring, and personality give Cheri the strongest foundation.

Sharp and in focus

Choose the highest-resolution original image available, not a screenshot when possible.

Soft, natural light

Even outdoor shade or window light usually reveals color and detail better than a flash.

Expression and eye level

A clear view of the eyes and characteristic expression helps the finished artwork feel personal.

More than one angle

Additional photographs help confirm markings, proportions, coloring, and small details.

Only have an older or imperfect photograph? Send it anyway—Cheri will let you know what is possible.

You can leave this blank. Cheri can arrange to receive the original photo files after reviewing your request.
