]]>Friend’s paintings capture cats snacking on a KitKat chocolate bar while resting in a chair, Dachshunds enjoying a self-care routine, and rabbits sipping on cocktails.
According to Friend, she has lots of ideas for her humanlike animals but never insists on producing her vision to a point on canvas. Instead, she takes a loose approach in her creative process, allowing the subjects to take “a life on their own” as she paints them.
“We think of them as having human emotions, and I try to capture that,” Friend explains on her website. “It’s how we connect with the animals in our lives. Hopefully I bring just enough to the work for the viewer to create their own story for the subject. I want the viewer to be part of the creative process.”
Friend shares her paintings on her Instagram profile, providing her followers a frequent dose of cute, adorable, and quirky animals. Check out more of her works below.

]]>Green tries to make a difference and contribute to the welfare of animals in various ways. This includes donating 10 percent of her profits to various wildlife and conservation charities and working with these organizations on projects that aim to help animals.
Her paintings and animal welfare work have been recognized by various publications and art competitions. She was named the Leisure Painter People’s Choice Award winner for 2020 while also being among the shortlisted candidates for several other accolades.
Green’s artwork almost always features a single animal surrounded by a plain background. This is purposely done to introduce viewers to the spectacular beauty of the subjects, which are depicted to the smallest details.
“To me, there is nothing so fascinating, so precious and so gracious as the natural world,” Green says on her website. “I have been sketching, drawing, painting, and obsessing over animals and their surroundings since childhood and will continue to do so for many years to come.”
