Realistic Pet & Wildlife Portrait Artist
Welcome to ArtByShay...
Leonardo da Vinci once said, “Where the spirit does not work with the hand, there is no art.” As an artist, I live by these words. My passion lies in capturing the true spirit of animals through my work. Whether it's an original piece inspired by Adirondack wildlife or a custom pet portrait, my goal is to bring each subject to life with authenticity and heart.
I hope you enjoy experiencing my art as much as I enjoy creating it. -Shay
