Small Person + Animal Portrait + Optional Guided Message
Small Person + Animal Portrait + Optional Guided Message
You have two choices. I can paint a person and pet OR as an intuitively inspired artist I will connect with your soul's essence to discover your animal spirit and create a lovely custom portrait painting based upon this vision. I will also ask for a guided message/poem to empower you on your path. Spirit Animal Guides can protect and inspire us as we uncover our core truth and wisdom.

Please email me two photographs (minimum) of yourself and several of your pet. If you want a Spirit Animal portrait and already know your Spirit Animal let me know beforehand. If you don't know what your spirit animal is, I will intuit it as I'm painting. Your portrait will be painted in my own interpretative style which may not replicate your photographs exactly.

I have to say... when I saw this I FELL IN LOVE... I couldn't stop smiling. Your painting/drawing brought me to tears, as you literally have portrayed the whale smiling, and it reminds me of my deep memory and love of their species.

“I was gifted with a Spirit Animal portrait of myself by Kathy...Let me say, she really got my spirit animal and poem down perfectly. The whole feel of the experience brought me to tears and even others, that I have shown it to, have also been blown away by how in tune she is...thank you SO MUCH!” ~ Lori, Temecula, California
"Thank you! It is so touching. I just cried. There is something about your work" ~ Dana Delguerra
“I couldn't wait to discover what my spirit animal was. What a lovely surprise to see the fun and playful fox and I together. I chuckled when I noticed how Kathy cleverly painted my red hair by wrapping the fox's tail around my head.” ~ Jen, Montreal, Canada
“It's beautiful! Beyond words Kathy. You pictured my essence, not only how I see myself, but my journey this year as daughter of Sea Goddesses and the spirits of the sea. I will have this framed for my room to remind me to trust the journey, Spirit is always there. Thank you so much! I am so in love with folks' ability to create through their third eye, listen to Spirit's guidance, and use their love for nature to make such beautiful stories. So whimsical and connecting. Simply wonderful. Thank you! I hope to work with you again soon, dear kindred spirit!” ~ Rhonda Susini, Arizona
