Cindy, "Izzy"

I first learned about Lisa Hutson through an author I follow on social media. I had been thinking for some time that I wanted to have a portrait done of my beloved 17 year old mix breed dog. I surveyed Lisa's website for the details & sent her an email along with the photograph I hoped she could paint.  Via a phone call she answered my questions  (one was how durable are pastels? Very -- they last over a hundred years). Then in about a week she emailed some "proofs" of the painting in process. By the end of the 2nd week the portrait was done & I received it in perfect condition -- it was packaged extremely well with bubble wrap & cardboard. I am so pleased with how it turned out, and I encourage you to go for it!
