My Pet Painted - stunning work and a real perfectionist!

"Wanted to say that the oil painting of my beloved pet dog that Greg Gillespie from My Pet Painted created for me was amazing. It really captured his spirit and is a treasured reminder of my little dog's life. I feel like he's always with me now. I was really blown away with how life-like the painting was and honestly didn't expect it to be so accurate and so like the photo I gave Greg. Even the detail of the way his fur sits and the colour of his tongue! Greg has a real love for his work and it shows. This was the best money I ever spent! "

My Pet Lucy

"Lucy my Blue Roan Cocker Spaniel was 8 years old when I had to have her put to sleep. I was in her cage with her on my lap when she died and it was the most devestating thing I have ever had to do.

I saw Greg's paintings in the Pet Shop and asked him to paint my Lucy with some photographs I gave him. When I saw the review he sent me over the email I cried because it was just "my Lucy". He captured her in every way.

Greg was so helpful, and made sure that he was painting Lucy in the position I wanted. We are having the painting framed at the moment, and even the Framer said what a lovely painting. When my son and daughter saw it they both said 'That's Lucy'. So I ;say,'Thank you Greg' "

Portrait Painting

"Greg Gillespie is one of the most competent and talented portrait painters I have seen. His ability to capture a likeness of the subject yet still keep the brushwork fresh and lively is admirable. I would recommend Greg without hesitation to anyone wanting a portrait that will be admired by everyone."

Otto Schmidinger, Studio Otto Kirra Qld

Aspiring Artist

"I am an aspiring artist with little background or skill, but a passion and desire to put some worthewhile and creative works down on canvas.

Greg Gillespie introduced me to a new and exciting way of portraiture when he worked through an upside down shadowy face usind a sponge and some different shadings of colour.

I was pleasantly surprised with the result, so much so that my effort hangs alongside gregs as a pair, in pride of place on my lounge room wall. The result was so eerie that some of my friends were quite disturbed by the work.

The lesson took an hour and has led me into exploring creative ways of applying paint to canvas outside of standard brushwork.

It was great fun and easy, a beginners treasure chest of new adventures."
