Through every season of life,

feathered & furry friends see tears,

hear secrets, and learn habits.

We believe your pet is one of a kind.

Our goal is that your pet's portrait will reflect their personality,

& show all of the special details only your precious pet carries.

KIND WORDS

I commissioned a special watercolor of our three dogs to give to my wife for her birthday. Our dogs range from 6 lbs. to 125 Ibs. and are different breeds each with unique features and colors. This created a real scaling challenge! Marissa did an absolutely amazing job capturing the image and spirit of our pets! I was very impressed with her attention to every small detail. She is truly a gifted artist. My wife was so surprised that she cried when I gave her the gift. She is ecstatic about Marissa's finished product and has since framed it for us to enjoy for years to come! We could not be happier and
highly recommend Melane & Co."
