Commission a Painting
Have an idea for a painting? I’d love to bring it to life!
Tell me a little about your vision, along with any preferences for size, style, or timing. We’ll plan the piece together, discuss pricing, and I’ll send you a mock-up to review before I begin painting. No need to have everything figured out!
About Me
Hi, I’m Ben Atkin. I’m an artist with a love for creating portraits of people and pets.
For me, the most meaningful paintings are about more than simply capturing how someone looks—they capture a personality, a connection, or a memory that means something to you. I love turning those special moments into artwork you can see, feel, and enjoy every day.
Whether you’re celebrating someone you love, remembering a beloved pet, or simply have an idea you’d like to see brought to life, I’d love to create something meaningful for you to cherish for years to come.
The Joy of Receiving a Portrait
“Ben painted both my dog who passed and my daughters dog who may pass soon. When I opened the portrait of my dog I burst into tears. Her eyes were beaming and bright. She is beautiful!! I felt she was right there with me. I will treasure this painting forever. Ben is incredibly talented and I am shocked at the accuracy. Thank you Ben!!!”
