“I commissioned Diane to paint a huge abstract painting (84"x42") because I knew she would be the only one of my many artist friends who could handle such a large project with minimal guidance from me. She did not disappoint.”
I love art more than food (and I'm Italian). My apartment is filled with paintings, but her giant masterpiece is in the hallway that I walk down at least 30 times a day and it gives me pleasure each time I pass it.
Thank you, Diane!

“ Diane Donati captures the essence of the subjects that she paints in the most touching way.
I treasure the numerous paintings I have commissioned her to do and I highly recommend others to do so.”

”Diane Donati has never met my two dogs. In fact, she had only seen a handful of photos before she declared, "I know who they are."
She captured with her painter's eye every tiny nuance that makes each of them, well, them.”
I cannot recommend her enough. It's as if she looks into their eyes and sees their souls. Forgive me sounding a little New Age, but I don't know how else to explain it. Her ability is uncanny.
Diane is an animal lover. It shows in her brush strokes. She won't quit until your pet looks about to jump off the canvas. She's that good. Very reasonably priced work too! Quick turnaround.

Denny perpetually enjoys a beer and a cigarette in our home. Diane’s painting is warm and honest and a pleasure to have!

A picture says a thousand words and Diane’s paintings speak for themselves.
“Lemon Tree” is her first painting that “spoke” to me. The original painting hangs on my red dining room wall.
“Snowy Chloe” Is a commissioned portrait of my German Shepherd Dog when she was 6 months old. She is proudly displayed in my living room.

“Diane Donati is an intuitive artist. She somehow captures the essence of a cherished pet perfectly from a photograph! Her brush strokes are minute and thought out articulately. You feel as if you could stroke the fur.
She is a master at her craft. Delivery was on time and securely packaged. I have commissioned three paintings as gifts and each is proudly hanging in a prominent position. I recommend her without hesitation.”

“It is with incredible enthusiasm that I describe the artistry that graces my home thanks to Diane! Her composition and attention to detail combined with captivating colors and beautiful brush strokes makes each of her creations simply spectacular. Without having met my sweet Bernese Mountain Dog Maximus, she was able to capture his loving eyes and goofy smile in two very unique portraits. (Please check out "Mini to Maxi" and "Maximus" in her pet portrait section.) She was very motivated to get to know him through numerous photos that I sent, and by our frequent conversations throughout the process. I am so appreciative that Diane was so invested in getting every detail right, thus enabling me to have the most incredible, "forever" remembrances of my fur baby!”
