Where portraits come to life.

Hi,

I'm Diane. I live in rural Victoria on a couple of acres amongst the birds and ever-changing scenery in the Loddon Valley. We're so lucky here to have glorious peace and tranquility, and, apart from the occasional 'moo' or 'baa' or 'squawk', it's the perfect environment to while away the hours dabbling with the art that I love.

I've always enjoyed tweaking faces, both people and animals, playing with the eyes until they are un-mistakenly recognisable as one of my children, grandchildren, friends or adored pets.

Now that I've retired I've taken my art to the next level and want to bring it to you. Up until now I've mostly used pastel or charcoal, but I'm starting to explore acrylic and oils and hope to  have some new products up soon. Commissioned portraits of a loved family member or pet can be done to order, and current turnaround is about 2-4 weeks.

I haven't set up an online shop set up yet, so please have a browse around the site and if you're interested in anything, or  have any questions, please send me an email and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.

Thanks for stopping by.
