About
Meet Marisa
I specialize in hyper-realistic pet portraits, capturing the unique spirit and personality of each subject. Over time, I began incorporating ethereal backgrounds, transforming ordinary pet photographs into enchanting, fairy tale-like scenes.
Many clients trust me with creative freedom to design settings that complement their pets, while others have specific visions or prefer simple backdrops. Regardless of the request, I am dedicated to bringing each portrait to life with meticulous detail, ensuring every piece tells a meaningful and visually captivating story.
Q & A
Do you mainly do portraits or do you offer other artistic or specific design services?
I primarily focus on portraits, but every now and then, I receive requests for other types of artwork like landscapes, floral pieces, or something a bit different—and I really enjoy those. I’m usually happy to take on a variety of projects, and there aren’t many that I turn away.
Who is your favorite artist?
I have many favorite artists, but lately, I’ve been especially drawn to Albert Bierstadt. His work is focused entirely on landscapes, yet they feel so emotional—almost living and breathing. It’s rare to see such sweeping depth and feeling in scenes that don’t include people or animals. His ability to evoke that kind of emotion through nature alone is really captivating.
Who are some artists who inspire you?
I can spend hours getting lost in the work of Rembrandt and Caravaggio—the way they painted light is just breathtaking. I’m also really inspired by Mark Maggiori; as a contemporary artist, his work speaks to me in a different but equally powerful way.
