As a retired graphic designer, I blended my 47-year commercial career and fine art skills into the creation of Seven Pines Studio, which provides a creative resource for a variety of illustrations and watercolor paintings. I enjoyed a "parallel" career painting landscapes over the years and now have been spending more time promoting my efforts into painting animal portraits, primarily of dogs. We live in Greensburg, Pennsylvania which is at the foothills of Chestnut Ridge in the beautiful Laurel Highlands in the southwestern part of the state. Thanks for visiting us and stop by often!
