I am gladly accepting commissions. I particularly love painting portraits of people candidly and actively enjoying themselves outdoors, and I am especially attracted to children and dogs at play and horses in motion. I am also open to new opportunities and challenges. I have found it to be very rewarding to be able to create paintings for people that have deep personal meaning for them. I may be able to work from your own photographs or I may choose to take some of my own photographs for reference. Gift certificates are also available. Please contact me for more information.

"Joy brought life to a dream I had carried for several years. Her work was more magnificent than I could ever have imagined. I will cherish my commission piece forever!"
Laura Jacob

"I can't thank you enough for the beautiful piece of art that you created for me. It is truly priceless. I am amazed that you know exactly what I wanted from a thumbnail sketch!"
Angela Campbell

"I wanted to tell you how incredible that picture is that you did for Father's Day. I can't tell you how delighted I am. I feel like I have an heirloom now that certainly my daughter wants at some point in her life. What a gift it is to have that in our home..."
