My name is Teresa Silvestri. I share my home and art studio, more commonly known as the kitchen table, with my husband and our three rescued dogs. When Precious, Sydney and Polly, aka "the girls", came into my life, they inspired me to bring joy to other animal lovers through my art. I enjoy capturing each pet's special and unique character in watercolor from photos you have or take yourself. Your pet’s features, especially eyes, will be painted in a representational style, while introducing bright colors to make faces and fur glow. Once I paint your pet’s original portrait, I then create fine art prints and notecards with your pet’s image. These make terrific gifts for others and yourself. My original painting prices start at $175 and my typical waiting time is 3 – 6 weeks. Click on Pet Portraits to view the gallery and for information and how to order. |
