My name is Mary Evelyn Tucker. I have been a full-time artist since 2015. Over the last eight years working on commissions for clients, I have painted hundreds of pet portraits. I love capturing the unique qualities of each individual pet.

In 2020, I illustrated three different children's books. I worked with author Susan Jones on "The Adventures of Cooper" and "The Adventures of Cooper: The Fire Breathing Machine." I also worked with author Tamara Menges (Light Filled Home) to illustrate her children's book "The Nativity Set," that was released that Christmas. The third Cooper project was published in the fall of 2021, "The Adventure of Cooper: The Flowerbed Fiasco." I also illustrated two Cooper coloring books. Currently, I am working on my fifth children's book with another author.

I found a way to do watercolor that works for me. I hope I can help you find a way that works for you! I have been sharing some of my techniques here on Skillshare and in occasional local workshops. I'm glad I found a platform like Skillshare that allows me to share what I have learned.

I think art can help in the healing process. Painting our dog Ava helped me deal with the grieving process when we lost her. It has been an honor helping many others dealing with the loss of their beloved pets, by memorializing them.

Below, our dog Thea is helping me prepare for a class. Fun fact: the chair where I sit while filming my classes is her favorite nap spot.
