Welcome to Places in Our Hearts!
My name is Wendy Klassen, Mom, Nana and animal lover.
As well, I am honoured that some of my clients have dubbed me
“The Painter of Love”. Please
browse my Galleries, sign my Guestbook, and pass my website on to
others. I look forward to
your feedback!
A
little bit about me:
As a child we always had pets in our home so it was only natural that
when I had my own children I carried on the tradition and my daughters
always had something warm and furry to cuddle.
There is something so pure about the love our pets give us; those
eyes, those wiggly tails. They
will always have a special “place in our hearts”.
This undying love is my inspiration, and in the autumn of 2004 I decided
to do my family’s pets portraits as Christmas gifts.
My first portraits (Sasha, Bo, Shelby, Emma, and Ripley) were
created with simple pencil crayons (that I had “borrowed” from my
daughter) and ink. Christmas
2004 brought me my first watercolours, paper and brushes (“Two
Hoots” was my first watercolour).
This opened up a whole new world for me.
As people saw my work they commissioned me to paint their pets.
I cannot tell you how much pleasure I get when I deliver a
painting and I see the recipient’s eyes light up.
I
hope you enjoy my paintings and, if you would like your pet’s love
captured in a painting, please fill in an order form.
You can email or send me a digital image/s (which I put on my
computer so I can zoom in and get the fine details).
I prefer a head/shoulder shot so I can focus on those loving
eyes. I look forward to
painting “a place in your heart”.
From my heart to
yours,
P.S. Please sign my guestbook.
