Welcome to animal-portraits-artist.com, home of artist Sharon Fensom.

" I'm a professional artist, living and working in France, registered with La Maison Des Artistes in Paris.

As an artist, my aim is to capture a true likeness, of whatever subject I'm painting. Being completely self taught, my ability and techniques have developed over the years, through observation and my love of animals. Enabling me to produce realistic, lifelike, highly detailed portraits. That hopefully bring much happiness to their owners.

Most of my work is created from photos, using pastels, a great medium, that is quick to use and gives a lovely soft, realistic effect, especially good for the pet portraits I do. But I also work in oils.

My preferred subjects are pets and wildlife, although I also enjoy painting people and house portraits.

I hope you enjoy my site, the gallery pages will be added to on a regular basis. You can also see a step by step guide, to how I create a portrait just click here. And to see the picture I'm currently working on, go to on the easel or click here.

You are more than welcome to contact me by phone or e-mail, for any information about my work, with no obligation. Please visit again soon."
