Pet Portrait Paintings Atlanta, GA

COMMISSION DOG PORTRAIT PAINTING

I'm taking my "joy on canvas" tagline that represents my landscape paintings and I'm extending it to my animal portraits. This is Sky, my rottweiler. I spent hours on the drawing getting her "just right", and then I used a palette of hues that reflect the joy she brings into my life. It's hard not to smile when my husband and I look at this joyful painting.

I've titled this 12"x12" acrylic painting on canvas, "Sky The Wonder Dog".

Oversized Original Art Atlanta by Jill Saur

I live in the beautiful state of Georgia in a suburb of Atlanta. I often go down to the Chattahoochee River to photograph my favorite places that express the beauty of the Chattahoochee. When I return to the studio, I select my favorites shots that I know I’ll want to do paintings of. This 48”x48” painting is from the shoals down at Fords Landing. This is a large painting.

One of the things I love about the homes in Atlanta is that they have lots of wall space. Atlanta homes traditionally have large entry ways with tall ceilings that continue throughout the home. My clients know they can count on me to come up with the right painting for their large wall space, especially when they want to make a statement. Sometimes that statement is bold and colorful. Sometimes the statement is calm and tranquil.

Whether you live in Georgia or any other of our beautiful states, and you’re looking for large paintings to fill a room or a wall, please consider commissioning me to paint something just for you. I work closely with my clients to ensure their satisfaction. Please visit my website to see what my patrons have to say about commissioning a painting with me. www.JillSaurFineArt.com

Atlanta Art Commissions

I love Van Gogh. People often associate Van Gogh with his tumultuous life and don't realize he was a master artist, draftsman, and color theory expert.

A few weeks ago I was inspired to paint this heavily textured palette knife painting using brilliant azure blues, effusive reds, and warm golds. Although I painted this quite spontaneously, I still used my knowledge of color theory and the elements of principle and design.

After concentrating on using those elements for so many years, they just seem to come naturally to me now. When someone asks me how long it took me to complete a particular painting, I'm tempted to reply, "Oh, about thirty years or so."

This 16"x20" textured acrylic palette knife flower painting is titled, "Red on Blue." This painting sold through one of my representing galleries. I'm extremely thankful to have folks who appreciate and love my work. If you're interested in purchasing a similar original, please consider commissioning a painting with me.

Lake Lanier Sunset Painting by Jill Saur

Martin Glaser, a legendary New York graphic designer famous for creating the ‘I Love New York’ logo, recently spoke about something that’s dear to my heart. He said, “If you can sustain your interest in what you’re doing, you’re an extremely fortunate person. What you see very frequently in people’s professional lives, and perhaps in their emotional life as well, is that they lose interest in the third act. You sort of get tired, and indifferent, and sometimes, defensive and you kind of lose your capacity for astonishment, and that’s a great loss, because the world is a very astonishing place.”

I guess you’d say I’m in the third act of my life. I still find wonder in observing nature, seeing the cloud formations before a storm, and getting up early to watch the sun rise over the misty waters of the Chattahoochee River.

The overflow of being astonished with life is expressed through my art, my friendships, and the general way that I conduct my business.

I agree with Martin Glaser, the world is a very astonishing place!

My 36"x48" oil painting above is a rendition of a spectacular sunset over Lake Lanier just outside of Atlanta, Ga. To see more of my paintings, or to commission a special piece for your home or office, please visit my website. CLICK HERE To contact me: CLICK HERE

Commission A Painting

My 18"x36" summer acrylic aspen tree painting, "Resounding Joy", was a painting commissioned by some of my favorite clients. After purchasing their first painting from my gallery, they decided they wanted another piece for a special place in their home. They wanted summer aspens and we came up with this idea. Soon after, they commissioned a larger painting for a summer home they were building in the mountains. How fortunate I've been to have such wonderful and appreciative clients!
