This is where everything begins to change
You sit down to paint a dog and know exactly what to do next.
You move through each stage with clarity instead of second-guessing every decision.
The eyes begin to fill with life, and the fur starts to take on a softness you can almost reach out and touch.
You begin to trust your work and follow through to a finished portrait.
And for the first time, you see what you’re capable of.
As your skills develop, so does your confidence.
And with that confidence, new opportunities begin to open.
You take on your first commission.
You raise your prices.
You begin building something that feels like your own.
Not just painting for yourself—
but creating work that others value,
and stepping into life as a commissioned pet portrait painter.
You want to paint… but something keeps getting in the way
You’re not alone in this.
Most of my students felt this way too. They had the desire, the love for animals, the creative spark.
What they didn’t have was a clear way forward.
They didn’t need more talent.
They needed to be shown how to paint.
And now, they’re creating portraits they once thought were out of reach.

You know there’s more in you
You feel it when you sit down to paint.
That there’s something deeper you want to express,
something more you want to create.
But without a clear way forward, it’s easy to feel stuck.
To stop halfway or second-guess every step.
You’re not lacking creativity.
You’re missing a process you can trust.
So every portrait starts to feel uncertain,
and finishing becomes the hardest part.

What if it didn’t feel that way anymore?
What if you had a process that guided you step by step,
so you could finally follow through?
What if you didn’t have to rely on motivation
or “flow” to create something meaningful?
What if you could finish a portrait you’re truly proud of,
and know exactly how you got there?
Because once you’re shown how to paint step by step,
everything begins to shift
You’re no longer guessing.
You know what to do next.
You follow through.

you finish a pet portrait that truly feels right.

I’ll be honest with you
getting here wasn’t easy
Even though I grew up painting, I spent years feeling frustrated with my art.
I knew I had something inside me, but it wouldn’t come out the way I wanted.
When I wanted to paint my childhood dog, I felt completely overwhelmed.
I didn’t know how to capture the essence of something so deeply loved, and I was afraid I wouldn’t do him justice.
So for a long time, I avoided it.
Until I realized something:
What I was missing wasn’t ability.
It was a clear, repeatable process.
Once I began developing a step-by-step way to paint, everything changed.
I could begin.
I could follow through without overwhelm.
I could finish.
And over time, that process became something I could truly rely on.

…Over a decade later
My pet portraits are now highly sought after, with a growing waitlist of collectors around the world.
My work has been featured in publications like The Washington Post and My Modern Met, and grief counselors have described my work as akin to therapy.
But what matters most to me is this:
Honoring the deep, unique bond between a pet and the person who loved them.
Being able to do work that means something.
To be trusted with that kind of love.
To create something that lasts.
And none of it would be possible
without a process I can trust.

And That’s When I Realized
What I had developed wasn’t just a way of painting.
It was something I could teach.
Because what had been missing for me—and what my students are often missing too—wasn’t ability.
It was a clear, step-by-step way forward.
And when my students begin using this process, everything begins to shifts.
They become more confident.
They follow through.
They finish their paintings.
They begin to trust themselves.
Some go on to take commissions.
Some raise their prices.
Some begin building something of their own.
All of them grow
Not because it happens overnight,
but because they are shown how to paint, step by step,
and everything begins to fall into place.
Your art is needed.
There are people waiting for what only you can create.

Learn my process for choosing the color samples for the background and successfully sharing them with the client. Get clarity into working with the client throughout this and learn how to prioritize your client relationship while honoring your own creative process.
You’ll also receive a printable Checklist and Guide to Successfully Sharing Background Color Samples with Your Client. You can use it as a workbook while you watch the video lesson or keep on hand for your next painting.
BONUS 08
Painting Louis Background
$149 Value
Get this nearly 3 hour technical lesson about choosing color samples based on the client’s desire for a soft, cool gray color. I hone in on the right hue for Louis (that also compliment his three siblings with different fur colors!) by blending samples on the palette, discussing pigments and paint bodies.
I’ll walk you through every step and paint all the background layers in real- time.
