This Buy-It-Now auction is for a portrait painted on an 8” by 10” canvas by Professional Artist Connie Bowen. I’d love to create a precious portrait painting just for you! I've painted over 325 portraits in the last five years. I was featured on Oregon Public Broadcasting's TV Show Art Beat twice in 2005 showcasing my portraits. How do I begin my portraits? I always paint in the eyes as my starting point. Sometimes I work an hour or two just on the eyes, until suddenly, I feel like the animal’s eyes are looking back at me! Soon your furry angel is memorialized on canvas into a masterpiece of love to be treasured for a lifetime! Please e-mail your pictures to me within a week of the auction closing, or drop them in the mail. Any photos I receive will be returned to you with your painting. Please allow 2-3 weeks for me to complete your painting. I will e-mail the finished product to you for your approval before I mail it to you. If you are not sure that your photo is clear enough, just e-mail it to me so I can take a look at it and I’ll let you know. ENJOY the portrait gallery below. These are samples of precious portraits painted for animal lovers just like you! More thumbnail samples can be viewed and enlarged on my website. A link to my website can be found on my ebay page. All paintings have my signature on the front and are also signed and dated on the back. The name of your companion animal is painted on the back of the canvas.
