Bobbie Bush is a professional portrait artist who specializes in transforming photographs into custom painted portraits. With nearly 30 years of experience, she has developed a unique mixed media process that bridges traditional and modern techniques. Starting with a photographic reference, either provided by clients or captured in a sitting, Bobbie uses electronic brushwork and a digital tablet to reimagine the image, which she then enhances with traditional artists' oils and glazes applied with a brush and palette knife.
Her work, deeply rooted in a lifelong passion for the arts, transcends the digital realm, creating pieces that not only capture a person’s authentic likeness but also embody the emotional essence behind each image. Whether the subject is a child, a loved one, or a pet companion, Bobbie's portraits serve as poignant reminders of love and legacy in the home.
Bobbie has seamlessly transitioned from photographic portraiture to these painted commissions, ensuring each piece is a collaborative creation that aligns with her client's vision. The dedication to her craft and ability to blend photographic precision with artistic fluidity allow her to produce artworks that are both meaningful and visually stunning.
In addition to her commissioned work, Bobbie passionately explores personal projects that involve working with traditional artists' materials like oils, pastels, and cold wax, adding depth and texture to the surface of her artworks. These explorations further enrich her understanding and curiosity of different mediums, enhancing her ability to create distinctive and impactful art.
Bobbie accepts up to five commissions per month, dedicating herself fully to creating meaningful artwork that enhances and celebrates personal connections and memories.
Just imagine having your most cherished memory transformed into a painted work of art, whether it is celebrating a child, memorializing a parent, commemorating a pet or honoring a friend. Portrait paintings in the home remind us that we are loved and valued.
