Born Nancy Isabel Salazar in Caracas, Venezuela, Nanybel started painting with watercolors and oils at the age of five. Her grandmother was a gifted artist in her own right and provided the inspiration that started her on her way to drawing and painting. It was she who coined the nickname "Nanybel" (short for Nancy Isabel) and whose memory is honored in the signing of every portrait she creates. In 1996 Nanybel moved to the United States, where she opened an Art Gallery, received several commissioned portraits and won awards at fine art competitions. Nanybel moved to Abu Dhabi, Uni...

I rarely work in traditional media nowadays, but I still do pencil sketching sometimes.

I draw portraits on commission from the photo provided by the customer. The size of the drawing is 9x12 inches (A4 format). All photos need to be approved by the artist before the work can start. It takes from 1 to 2 weeks to finish the drawing depending on the work load. The portrait is shipped flat using urgent international mail order, and arrives ready to mat and frame. The portrait is also ensured. The portrait is an original work of art and would be signed by the artist. The copyrights are not transferred with the sale and the artist reserves the right to use the draw...

I am available for oil portrait commissions within all areas of Mainland UK. I will travel to you. I am happy to take on any subject: child portrait paintings, family portrait paintings, pet portrait paintings, etc. Great care is taken in all aspects of making each portrait so that a high level of beauty and realism are achieved and the painting communicates uniquely in relation to the subject and for the buyer. Both professional quality canvas and oil paints are also used to ensure quality and longevity.

Although Jandi Small pursued other areas of study in school – she earned a degree in Biology and pursued a Master’s degree in Landscape Architecture – the arts have been her true passion since childhood. Ten years ago Jandi focused on her artwork full time when she created a pet portrait for an animal rescue group from whom she had adopted a dog. The painting was auctioned at a fund raising event and this proved so successful that Jan’s efforts raised over $60,000 for the group over the next two years. Jandi and her physician husband live on a rural property with a menagerie of rescu...

I work mostly with the image of the human figure. My emphasis is on the male figure and contemporary portraits. These images frequently feature the person or people in some unguarded or relaxed moment. I often choose non-realistic colors to produce a “realistic” representation and often work with the space surrounding the figure to produce a merging figure/space relationship. Some people call my work "expressionistic" and I'd agree with that label. Figure painting has been a time-honored tradition in art, although, in the current status of the art world of installations, video art, ...

I have done portraits in acrylic paint on canvas for many years. I try to capture the essence of a person, pet or event - such as weddings, bridal portrait, accomplishments, etc. I paint memorable moments that someone wants to memorialize in a painting. Patrons commission me when they want more than a photograph. I try to capture the essence of what I am painting. I graduated in art with a BA and MFA from UC Santa Barbara. I have been published in the book Best Of America Water Media Artists and will be featured in a new book, Best Of America Acrylic Artists.

John Markese is a Chicago area artist that specializes in figurative art and portraiture in a variety of mediums, but most notably oil and acrylic paints and pastels. His style is spontaneous, filled with lively brushwork and agile mark making. The palette John uses punctuates these qualities in his marks and juxtaposes unusual hues to visually describe the human form in interesting ways. He mainly paints from live models and utilizes the time constraints of painting from life to emphasize the intensity of his style. His acrylic and pastel paintings feature human figures whose bodies are...
