A Visual Journey
I am amazed how subjects come to life on paper. What begins as a 2 dimensional photograph, slowly becomes something emotionally beautiful as each stroke of the brush or pencil, turns a blank piece of paper into a 3 dimensional portrait.​
Tess moved to Cornwall in 2014 and has now become an established Pet Portrait and Animal Artist in her own right, producing beautiful paintings and drawings of animal subjects.
In 2021 she launched her website and business to offer commissioned work to paint or draw her clients beloved pets in watercolour, pencil or pastels. She has since opened an online shop selling limited addition prints, cards and gifts on her website and is regularly seen at her stand at local agricultural shows.

This is a selection of my paintings and drawings I have produced over the last twelve months. Many are private commissions that I have loved to create for the clients but there are also a few alternative portraits that I have wanted to put down on paper that are available to purchase.
If you would like further information about how to book me for a commission, please drop me a line.
