With over 23 years of experience, Tanya Jean Peterson has been entrusted by families and collectors to create meaningful, one-of-a-kind works of art. Specializing in detailed oil paintings, Tanya captures the spirit and emotion of her subjects with remarkable realism and warmth. In addition to oils, she also offers graphite drawings and porcelain-fired clay figurative sculptures, giving clients unique ways to preserve treasured memories.
Every commission is carefully planned and executed with patience and skill. Tanya’s oil paintings are completed in layers, allowing each to fully dry before the next is applied. This traditional technique gives her work its signature luminosity and ensures a level of detail and quality that stands the test of time.
Commissioning a piece with Tanya is simple and personal:
Connect & Plan
Start by sending us an inquiry with an idea of what you would like commissioned. We’ll discuss your vision, style preferences, size, and all the details that will shape your custom artwork.
Deposit & Creation
Once everything is finalized, a deposit is required to begin. Tanya then begins the creative process, layering oils with precision. Depending on size and complexity, paintings typically take about 4 weeks to complete.
Completion & Pick Up
When your artwork is finished, you’ll be notified for pickup (or shipping arrangements if required). The remaining balance is due at this stage, and you’ll take home a one-of-a-kind piece to treasure forever.
