Animal Portraiture and Other Art

HOME  DOGS & CATS  CHICKENS  EQUINE & OTHER PAINTINGS  CAROUSELS 

I’ve been painting Carousels, including the round-a-bout, animals and themed murals, for close to two decades.  I design paint schemes based on client’s ideas.  These machines can be seen internationally at Universal Studios Japan, Movieworld, Germany, The Philippines and Mexico, along with the Audubon Zoo, New Orleans and other location around the county.  Closer to home are Carousels at Traintown, Sonoma CA, The Nut Tree, Vacaville and Arden Fair Mall, Sacramento.



This pygmy hippopotamus was one of several animals sculpted for a carousel at the Audubon Zoo in New Orleans.  The photo on the left is the clay sculpture in progress and the finished animal is on the right.


These murals are part of a carousel at Train Town, Sonoma, CA.  Each painting is approximately 24”x18”.


This Sea life theme carousel is at the Hamilton Mall, May’s Landing, NJ.   This machine featured new custom sculpted dolphins, sharks, seahorse and killer whales.  Each of these murals are approximately 36”x 22”.


These wildlife paintings are from a carousel at the New Orleans Audubon Zoo
