Thank you Knoxville Police for giving me the opportunity to paint such a meaningful portrait. I'm truly honored and blessed to live in the land of the free because of the brave. What I learned in painting this only furthered my respect this man. Thank you Ryan Knauss for your service and your memory.

See my video of some of the painting details. This portrait was donated and others may also donate to the family.

Choosing a canvas size

18”x24”
20”x30” (Mid-size)

Smaller sizes are great for hanging a series.

24"x36" (Large)
30"x40" (Grand)

Substantial enough to hang alone on a wall or above couch. 

If you are unsure of size for a live painting, remember you can change this after your order before I start work. I'm also happy to discuss sizing during our consultation call.
