Charmine's animal portraits are incredible reflections of
not only what the animal actually looks like, but also their
personality. These portraits of a beloved pet, or perhaps an
award winning animal one owns, or even an animal one just loves to have
images of, are all custom created original oil paintings that will be
cherished for generations.
Each painting is painstakingly exact in its detail until
the fur shines, the nose looks moist, and one can believe that
the animal is actually looking at you...while gazing at the
portrait, reality fades and the animal comes to life.
For further information on how you can own one of these
fabulous oil paintings; and to view other samples of animal
portraits, be sure to visit her Animal Portrait Gallery. |

The world of Charmaine's still life watercolor paintings is an
invitation into an aesthetic paradise of perfect artistic objects.
The viewer
realizes Charmaine has captured a perfect moment in time. She invites
us to view the serenity and beauty of her paintings from the gleaming
polished silver, intricately designed china, precious oriental vases
and magnificently cut crystal glasses all of which are juxtaposed with
freshly cut flowers from her yard.
Her
watercolours well deserve the American Watercolor Society and
international acclaim that they have received. Charmaine's art work
hangs on many walls of prestigious homes and offices around the world.
For further information on how you can purchase an original waterclor or Giclée print, browse the Watercolor Gallery.

Charmaine's scratch board art developed from her love for animals and
etching. Unable to pursue etching in her home studio she
turned
to scratchboard drawing.
Her precise and
delicate drawing style gives the viewer the sensation that they can
reach out and touch each subject whether it is fur, feathers or rough
skin of an elephant ot the smooth texture of a dolphin.
All original
scratch boards are black and white. Prints of the originals
are
hand colored by the artist, using Prisma colored pencils.
View the selection of animal scratchboard art available as hand colored prints and notecards in the Scratchboard Gallery.

Charmaine recently
started working as a bronze sculptor. She studied sculpture as an
undergraduate and later as a grad student. Sculpture has
always
been her first art interest. She believes the value of three
dimensional art develops strength and depth to her two dimensional work.
Having always been a
cat person and owner of three cats she had the perfect subjects for her
sculpture. The first "Stretch" is a study of her Siamese cat Sam. He
stretches every morning letting all know the day has begun.
Detailed pictures and purchasing information is available in the Bronze Gallery.
