About Melissa

My passion for art started at a young age. This quickly followed with a passion for animals. After graduating from The School of Visual Arts, I pursued a career as an art teacher in Edison, NJ. While this is an extremely rewarding part of my life, I realized that I also wanted to start a business where I could help memorialize pets and create one of a kind pieces for the public. As a mom to my boxer sisters, Pearl and Emmie, I understand the importance of creating art that could capture a particular moment of our beloved pets forever. By creating a one of a kind, original, hand made piece of art, I can capture the essence of your beloved pet, which is something that I am extremely passionate about.

Below are samples of various Pet Pawtraits that I have completed over the years. As long as your photo is well lit and a good quality print, I can recreate a beautiful artistic memory that will last a lifetime.
