One of a Kind Original Oil Paintings

"The portrait that Jade Gates recently completed of my son brought both myself and his grandmother to tears when we first saw it. It is so like him and truly captures his essence. What a gift to have a gorgeous image of young Cody to enjoy forever.
Jade is a truly talented artist!"

Since Gates is also a photographer, her understanding of light and posing, allows her to capture the best references possible for painting. She also works from clients photographs.
Gates uses a limited palette of the purest oil paints available and environmentally friendly solvents.
Her style is a traditional method starting with an under painting and then slowly applying the detail with several layers of paint.
