Portrait Paintings from Life or a Photo by Portrait Painter Janis Stevens

A good likeness is guaranteed in either oil or pastel!

Family Portraits

I can create a portrait of you, your family, your friends or your beloved pets in pastels or oils from life or from a photo. Below are some samples samples I have painted. To order portraits from your photos see my Commissions Order Page .  I  also work from life. If you are in the  Key West, Florida visit my studio. (appointments only please) . I also work out of a gallery in Coconut Grove, Florida and in Beverly Hills, California.

Animal Portraits

I have been a portrait painter of animals and people for over thirty years. Portraits can be painted in oil from life or even from several photos. The background can be modified to reflect the unique personality of the subject. Family portraits or several family pets can be painted on one canvas. I can work from your photos or mine if a sitting is not possible.   I will send photos of the work as it progresses for your approval. E-mail for references.
