I enjoy the challenge of commissioned artwork. 'Never Trust a Cat' is a wonderful painting commissioned by Laurel Holthause.  It celebrates her passion, her pets and die-hard devotion to the Baltimore Ravens. 

'Never Trust a Cat' features her three dogs (in Ravens jerseys) and cat (in Steelers jersey). It also features her sister Terry's dog (in 49ers jersey) playing cards. Yes there is some real cheating and trickery going on here by the feline.
Thanks Laurel for giving me the opportunity to create such a delightful painting. 

 If you have a space in your heart for a vibrant colorful painting created just for you, please contact me so we can get started. Commissions can be anything from a watercolor to a large painting. I've done many commissions over the years for all reasons, there could be one in your near future. 

Some ideas for paintings are:
* Family or personal moments
* Ideas that just make you feel happy, gooey or deep
* Portraits
* Religious themes
* Company history in a collage of images
* Anything else you can imagine...
