One of my more challenging and exciting projects was bringing Tracey back to life for my friend’s mom. She was the dog that belonged to his parents in the 1970s, and passed in 1980. He went digging through stacks of photo albums to find reference photos which, as you can see below, were quite grainy and discolored. Between the selection of vintage photographs and facetiming with his father as I finetuned the details, we were able to create a pet portrait to bring joy to his parents!
