Everybody knows their pet is one of a kind–and they really are. To capture "who" their pet is, I have owner's tell me stories about them and these stories inspire my portraits. More stories of loyal friends, tennis ball obsessions, and woodland creature fixations can be found on my Facebook or in my latest posts here and here.

My last black lab, Captain Black(The Captain), never let a lake, pond, or watering hole, go by without his checking it out in person. I always kept at least two towels in the back of my minivan, just for wiping off the excess fun before driving home. :D There were two things I could always count on the Captain doing. That was one of them, but the other was farting all the time. They were always 'Silent Sliders' and had this uncanny way of slapping you in the face. LOL!

I loved, loved, LOVED them all! Any chance you could turn my beloved Monstie into 'The Pajamanator' (his pink blankie cape-wearing super hero alter ego)?? I'd be ever so grateful and will undoubtedly weep uncontrollably! :-D Monstie-be...4783ef.jpg
You are a great artist! :D you really capture the personality of the pets and you draw them in a manner that they are recognisable :D Awesome ^^ I wish I (still) had a pet for you to draw ;P She was a really special cat!
Oh my gosh I want one of these so bad! My kitty would make a great picture!
Wow, this is the best thing I've seen today :) That really brightened my mood. So awesome!
Can you do one of my dog?? She's extremely shy of other dogs and dislikes strangers unless she knows them. She chases bird occasionally but is mostly very lazy at home. Here's a photo of her: IMG_0864-5...6d52e4.jpg
These are amazing. It is too bad you are not near by. I would love to tell you the story of my dog, Kipper, that we lost to cancer last year
Man, your cartoons are f****n aewsome! I want a cartoon from my partner, the boxer úrsula. She passed away last month by leukmia...
Chris, you are my FAVORITE, FAVORITE pet artist!! It is my most ardent hope to soon be able to have you paint one of my French Bulldog, Kiwi. SO excited to have it done! CHEERS! MORE phenomenal work!
