​These are from older paintings. I would love to create something similar for you! I can do them in a color scheme you want and a size you prefer. 
I am currently accepting custom orders.

I finished one painting this year for an art lesson.    It was of an angel, which helped me get through some of the depression I've been struggling with.  My son, Kyle, battled cancer for the last two and a half years.  This past year the cancer spread to his liver. It was nine months of struggling and suffering before the Lord mercifully took him home March 21st.  He was 37 with a wife and 2 kids.
​
I have tried to paint, but mostly I still break down and cry. It has been an extremely difficult month: Kyle's birthday was on the 5th, Mother's Day the 11th, graduations, and three more birthdays in our family. All that and today is Memorial Day.  He was no longer active military, but the cancer came from working on repairing fuel systems in fighter jets.  He was awarded 100% disability with the VA last year.  This will be a tremendous help for his wife and children as they face the difficult years ahead.
​
I have not done well in public places.  I was forced to deal with situations that completely overwhelmed me.  I've had several meltdowns (one in the middle of a crowd) and many more sleepless nights.

    Fawn McNeill creates handcrafted original works of nature and inspirational art.  Some of her subjects include angels, florals, seascapes, landscapes, and      animal portraits. Her paintings are mostly rendered in realistic impressionism, although she does enjoy creating knife paintings and playful, mixed-media pieces.
    ​"I'm originally from Montana, but moved extensively while growing up. I've had great adventures in the Rockies, the Pacific Islands, and now Florida!  I began drawing and painting when I was 12. I started selling my work when I was 17. I began teaching art at 21, and 40 years later I still love it."
    The artist owns and retains all copyrights (even if you purchase a painting).
