Are you looking to capture something special for you or a special someone?

I colourfully capture special places, people or pets on paper or canvas. I paint for those who are looking for a unique gift or an original painting for themselves. House portraits and urban landscapes are a primary focus of mine, but occasionally I enjoy painting people and family pets. Whatever your idea or vision may be, I am eager to create a piece of art for you to gift or cherish.

Testimonials

 

“Shandelle painted my family cottage but we call it “The Farm”.

It is the exact duplicate and because we don’t go out during the winter, I can hang it in my home and enjoy it year round. Thank you so much for the memories.” - Louise

“Shandelle painted a stunning portrait of my wild mustang, Jethro. She captured his facial features so well along with the scenery and colours that perfectly embody his life with me. It was wrapped and shipped to me with care in almost no time. I am so lucky to have a piece of artwork so unique and unlike anything else in my home. I couldn't have commissioned anything more perfect and I look forward to having it for years to come and long after Jethro is gone.” - Thomasina

“I had the most wonderful experience with Shandelle. I commissioned her to paint my beloved family cottage. Shandelle was very accommodating and worked to make the best likeness of a place which holds dear memories. My parent’s, who the gift was for, were delighted and it is hung in a special place at home. I am looking forward to having her paint another cottage portrait soon.” - Cindy
