Let me put it this way: If I didn't do portraits and logos and ads and brochures, I'd be out of luck, because that is about all I do well. I was looking through the classifieds the other day and there was not a single job I was qualified for. not one.

Thankfully though, I've developed a faithful following that keeps food on the table.

If you're interested in a portrait of yourself, a client or a loved one, please email me and let's begin a conversation. Prices range from a few hundred to a few thousand, depending on the size of the artwork, the number of people, the pose, travel and such. But I'll explain all that when we talk. The bottom line is that I'll do everything I can to find a way to work within your budget, whatever it is.

If you're interested in my design work, email me as well. I've been blessed to work with some great clients who appreciate high-quality, strategy-based work, and I'm always interested in working on exciting new projects.

I hope we talk together soon,

The portraits are atypical in the fact that they aren't the usual photo-reality portraits many artists strive for.

Instead the subject's personality takes a higher level of importance than their physical likeness. Although, that's not to say Doug's portraits don't look like the subject... they do... but he strives to capture more than just the likeness. That's what makes each of Doug's portraits special and unique.

Starting with an original photographic image, Doug utilizes a combination of abstract watercolors and digital brush work — artfully manipulating the image until his creative goals are reached. His pieces truly look like nothing else.

The end result is then printed on high-quality, museum-grade watercolor paper, using archival inks that remain true and sharp for many lifetimes.

Additional prints can be ordered as well, in a variety of sizes.
