Reflections 2010 by Tania Marie (24" x 30")
Commissioned as a wedding gift for a New York couple with a love for the beach and their dog, Rufus. I created an image that was a romantic fusion and integration between the sky and water, reflecting and enhancing one another, just as partners in life do, sharing qualities, yet unique and mirroring of each other. I also wanted a very spiritual/celestial feel to the sky to balance the earthy quality of the sand below with all elements melding one into the other, the air element of sky with firey sun, firey air with water, water with earth and the spiritual essence emanating throughout. I chose to create Rufus' energy to match this "in reflection" quality, utilizing one of the photos I was given, but adding a maturity to his innocence from his adult photo, so it is him, not quite puppy and yet not quite adult, just like the blossoming growth process of a relationship.
TESTIMONIAL
"We love, love, love the painting. The colors used for the sunset are breathtaking and the way they mesh together shows true talent on your part. Rufus looks adorable too! He looks just like the picture Dave sent you when Rufus was a puppy, but with a slightly more mature look to him. Rufus sitting in the water symbolizes to us, our deep sense of spirituality, which we share with each other and with Rufus. Rufus, the beach and the ocean are very meaningful to us and to our relationship. All three are great sources of inspiration, spirituality and positivity for Jim and I. The beach, coupled with Rufus, is like hitting the jackpot for us, and then add the bond that Jim and I share, and the feeling is beyond compare; beyond our wildest dreams.
Thank you for artistically tying the beach and Rufus together to create a beautiful painting that Jim and I will cherish forever."
Sincerely,
Amanda, Jim & Rufus Flanagan

Everyday Miracles 2010 by Tania Marie
(24" x 24")
Commissioned as a birthday gift for Nikki who has a resonance with butterflies and adores her sweet little Madison. I wanted to capture her tender spirit while creating joyful, blossoming and transformational energy for Nikki that was light and playful, to help embrace the wonders and miracles of life, as she embarks on a new year of abundant possibilities.
REIKI PET PORTRAITS
Pets are our best friends, children, companions and soulmates and in many cases are the dearest gifts in our lives ~ always there unconditionally to support and love us. I know that many have recently and over the years lost dear ones and currently have new members in their family, or have those that have been with them through thick and thin for years. So, in honor of these dear ones that bring invaluable joy to our lives in immeasurable ways, I am offering this service.
Many loving requests, my own deep connection to animals, honor for all the dear ones in need of healing from the disasters globally & support of animals as a vegan, are my inspired passions behind doing these creations to capture the essence & spiritual beauty of our beloved animals. If you work with any organization in support of animals & have need for beautiful images to support your cause please also contact me to create beautiful animal portraiture.
I have two dear ones myself, a tortoise named Gaia and lop-earred bunny named Joy and 2 years ago lost the dearest soul in my life, Nestor (also a lop-earred bunny, pictured above). I know the significance they hold and have a gift in capturing the essence, spirit and personality of animals. So I am offering pet portraits to honor that love. Each painting is infused with Reiki, with intention to support the bond and connection you have with them, as well as is intended to surround both of you with healing love.
