“Bella”

Fourth installment in a series that also includes “Princess Fiona”, “Mr. Bigglesworth in Majesty”, and “Bunny”. **Under Construction — Image Not Loading**

"Princess Fiona" and followup...

Fiona moved with her family to Texas, and she loves water....


Next will be the companion piece, a portrait of her kitty boyfriend, Mr. Bigglesworth....

"Cat Pirate Wade" AKA "Wade Can Haz Booty"

Done as a donation to Light the Night. The person with the winning bid wanted their cat, Wade, portrayed as a pirate. She never stays still if they put her in costume, so this was done with pure imagination.



“Bella and Manu“

"Bella and Manu" is complete, and soon I will begin two portraits for the same client, one "Timmy" and one "Rhett".

"Rev"

Rev is a sweet, older cat who loves to play with Q-Tips....


Inclusion in United Way auction

I have also donated an 11"x14" custom pet portrait service to an auction, held by URS, for United Way. All total, the auction raised about $25,000, and my portrait service went for $90.00.

This one will be of a cat named Rev, though I don't have any other details to share at this time....

I hope to get that painting under way soon, too. :)

"Sophie on the Ledge of Sanity"

Blue and purple grasses, yellow sky, white trees with red leaves... and a fence that seems to recede into the distance, but it's actually just shrinking (or getting bigger). The ledge is Sophie's refuge from madness. Oils on stretched linen canvas, 14x18 inches, (c) 2009 by Arran Walker.

"Sam"

This is a commissioned memorial for a sweet kitty named Sam.

Dec 2008 - Three commissions nearing completion

Coming soon! A memorial portrait for a cat named Sam... the wacky portrait of a cat named Sophie... and my first non-pet commission -- a portrait of a boy named David.

"Tortilla Soup and Mixed Greens"

A.K.A. "Soup and Side Salad".
Yes, the cat's name is Tortilla Soup.

"Thorstein"

Thorstein Veblen (the cat, not the economist) loved catnip, so in this memorial I placed him in a catnip garden. He also had a tendency to look at people with a half-wink, so of course he had to be immortalized with this expression.
