A recent Christmas gift was commissioned by my client Katie from San Francisco, CA for her brother, Phil and his wife, Kait. I was able to finish the painting and ship it to her brother before the Christmas deadline. Katie was kind enough to capture video of her brother opening the gift, and capturing his reaction of his pet portrait painting.

Katie wrote this little blurb to me after Christmas…

We had a very, very, Merry Christmas and in large part thanks to you! Please find a picture of the already hung painting and the proud model. I also included a video of my brother opening the present.... as you'll see he was thrilled!

This video says it all, and is exactly why I do what I do. I love happy clients and was grateful for Katie sending me this video showcasing her brother, Phil’s reaction. Take a look!
