MEMORIAL PORTRAITS
Your photos
are enough.
Whatever you have — a cell phone snapshot, a blurry old print, a screenshot from a video — I can work with it. Your pet deserves to be on your walls.
THE QUESTION EVERYONE ASKS
"Are my photos
good enough?"
Almost always, yes. In my work as a fine art photographer and digital artist, I have worked from photographs that most people would assume were unusable. The technology available today is remarkable — and so is what's possible when the right hands are guiding it.
I've created meaningful, heirloom-quality artwork from:
Cell phone snapshots
Blurry or out-of-focus images
Old printed photographs
Screenshots from videos
Scanned slides or negatives
Low-resolution digital files
Share what you have. I'll tell you honestly what's possible. You may be surprised.

Judy creates
Using photography, digital artistry, and hand-applied acrylic brushwork, your portrait is crafted as a one-of-a-kind canvas piece.
Delivered to your home
Your finished portrait is hand-delivered and professionally installed — or shipped with care to wherever home is.
THE WORK
What a photograph becomes
in the right hands.
Portraits created from client-provided photographs, including cell phone images.
MY WHY
I almost lost the photo
I needed most.
I've done this for myself. I know exactly what it means.
In 2023, I created a painted portrait of my husband Stan and our dog Murphy on the beach at Martha's Vineyard — racing ahead of a hurricane to get the shot I'd almost missed the year before. Murphy passed away four months later at 15.
That painting hangs in our home. On the hardest days, it brings him back. That's the only reason I need to do this work — and why I want it for every person who has loved an animal the way I loved Murphy.
The memory doesn't have to stay locked in your phone.
Share whatever you have. A conversation costs nothing, and you may be surprised by what's possible.
