well hello there… 🐾
My name is Alli and I’ve been painting beloved pets for passionate pet owners since 2007. I’ve been a creator of all things artsy fartsy since I can remember. Currently based in beautiful Tampa, Florida but take my studio on the road with me when I travel for work.
I graduated with an art degree from UCF in sunny Florida and jumped right into the world of scenic art - working for a local scenic shop in Orlando. A lot of our work centered around permanent installation pieces for Universal and Disney. If you’ve ever visited Islands of Adventure (Jurassic Park World and Cat in the Hat Ride) - you’ve seen my work. 🦖😻
I applied my years of work in the industry to mural work, which I truly enjoyed. Worked on commissioned home projects, interior and exterior. Worked for several years at the Home Shopping Network as a scenic artist, building and creating sets for shows. But these days, I’m enjoying working smaller. As in furry friends, smaller.
I paint people’s pets. They send me a photo and I create their baby on canvas, wood panel or digitally. To have artwork of your favorite four-legged friend is so very special. I know because I, too, have artwork of my furbaby from an artist or two.
One of the perks of my job includes a donation to a local animal charity with every commissioned piece. Feels really good to give back and help pups and kitties find their furever homes.
Anywho… thanks for being here and supporting the arts. Much appreciated!
