About the portraits
A thoughtful collaboration, created entirely for you.
Portraits by Wendy Pond are custom-created and thoughtfully personalized to reflect each client’s unique vision. Every piece is a collaborative process between artist and client, combining ideas and preferences for size, medium, and subject matter.
Photographs are used as references to bring your vision to life. A great way to begin gathering ideas and inspiration is by exploring the portraits featured in the various galleries on this website.
Backgrounds can be added, simplified, or completely reimagined. In many cases, multiple photographs are combined to create an entirely new and cohesive composition.
Watercolor
Transparent color, graceful detail, and luminous softness make watercolor especially suited to children, families, and beloved pets.
Acrylic on canvas
Rich color and a painterly presence create a lasting statement piece for the home.
Colored pencil
Elegant drawings are offered in black or terra-cotta on white, gray, or tan papers with carefully chosen highlights.
