Unveiling the Creative Journey

Discover MB Cunningham

Hi there! Here is a bit of background about the artist. 

I’ve been painting creative, custom watercolors for about 20 years now, and let me tell you, it’s been an amazing journey. Initially, I started painting for friends and family who appreciated my watercolor style. Then I began commisioning and selling my paintings to interested customers.  After that I even snagged a few awards for my watercolor creations along the way.  But you know what? The real joy comes from finally seeing my customers happy and satisfied with my watercolor paintings from their photos.

Believe it or not, my art studio is nothing fancy. It’s just a cozy little space at my kitchen counter or a table overlooking my back yard. And you know what makes it even better? I can chat with my husband or have my adorable basset hound, Roxy, snuggled up in my lap while I paint. It’s pure bliss!

Now, here’s the best part. Ordering a family portrait, anniversary painting, or custom pet portrait is a breeze. All I need is a quick phone call or email, along with a couple of photos, and we’re good to go. No upfront payment required! You only pay once you’ve received a picture of the finished masterpiece and given it your stamp of approval.

Being a portrait painter near Buffalo, NY, I’ve had the pleasure of capturing local homes, people, and pets on canvas. My clients rave about how simple and easy it is to work with me. And here’s a funny thing: most of my clients find me through the internet, therefore I rarely get the chance to meet them in person. But you know what? Through our conversations and the pictures they share, I feel like I really get to know them. It’s a beautiful way to connect and understand what’s important to them. Also they get to know me, the artist.

So, if you’re looking for a personalized watercolor portrait that truly captures the essence of your loved ones or cherished memories, look no further. I’m here to bring your vision to life and create something truly special for you. Let’s embark on this artistic journey together!

Many of my other watercolor paintings are also available in art prints on paper, canvas, tees, mugs and gear in my Teepublic Shop Here

YOUR PAINTING

I realize that you are not just ordering a copy of your photograph to be made into a painting, but are looking for a lasting and treasured memory of your home, pet or loved one. You'll speak to me, the artist, personally before I begin your painting

YOUR PHOTOS

To create an original, handpainted watercolor home portrait or pet portrait (for example, dog portraits ) for you, I'll use your photos, discuss your needs and what you'd like included in the painting. It takes about two weeks to complete a painting.
