Custom Portrait by Montina Hussey

A painting is a time machine that can bring you back to a place you once loved, or transport you to a place in your dreams.

As an artist, I take great pleasure in collaborating on a patron’s vision. It begins with a photograph of your child, mother, a best friend who passed, or a celebrity you idolize. Let’s bring someone you love most alive with paint. I love to create portraits that are dynamic in colour and expressive in brushstrokes. Each painting is created with golden acrylics and Windsor newton oil paint on a stretched gesso canvas.

Depending on the size, paintings take one to two weeks to finish, and then one more week to dry, Your new artwork will then be shipped securely wrapped.
