Welcome to Life in Pastel
Artwork by Rachel Murray
Painted portraits have a unique power. They preserve the essence of the people and pets we cherish most. At Life In Pastel, I offer a range of custom artwork that brings your memories to life. From hand-painted portraits in acrylics and oil pastels to live event painting that captures unforgettable moments in real time, each piece is made with care and creativity. I also craft custom-painted jewelry featuring beloved pets, turning treasured companions into wearable art.
