About Captured by Melissa
I take your images and create a unique portrait for you, I sketch, and choose the media to then create your picture. Usually acrylic or water colour paints on a canvas card framed. Your images will only be used for me to visualise the picture I do not overpaint photos or trace, all my work is free hand.
I truly am emotionally involved in your picture, I am known to have tears in my eyes while painting as I feel the attachment to your loved ones. I am often painting pets that have passed so the pictures mean so much to me when I have finished, my hand overs mean the world to me
