What makes you YOU? What do you love to do . . . hobbies, interests, favorite things, treasured memories? I paint custom "Illustrative portraits" that incorporate some of these elements to create a one-of-a-kind, personal portrait of you, a loved one, beloved pet or house. I use your photos as reference and work collaboratively with you. You choose size and medium.
"I am absolutely in love with the portrait that Amy painted of me! She somehow managed to represent not only me, but the very essence of who I am and what I love. I could not have asked for a more meaningful portrayal of me!

"Amy's painting...heartwarming & magical! Amy & I met in a painting class & I invited her to my home to paint outdoors to further our friendship. I enjoyed her gentle, humble and sincere spirit. We had a nice morning painting & visiting. A few weeks after our time together, much to my surprise, I was gifted a very precious piece of art...my home's portrait! I've hung it proudly and it warms my heart. Amy sees & paints the beauty & magic in people, places & pets. Thank you Amy..."

"Amy Sunderman is a gifted artist who takes portraiture to a whole new level. Amy is a master of lighting, mood, color & composition. As a lover of nature, she often incorporates wondrous, natural backgrounds into her paintings. while she captures a subject's essence beautifully, she also weaves a magical visual story of their life within each piece. Beyond her talent, Amy is an individual of high integrity & charm. I cannot recommend her work enough."
