Peggi Habets is a watercolor portrait and figure artist. Her studio is located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, but she works with clients around the country. Her lifelong interest in art and a 15year career in graphic design and illustration have all led to her current calling as a portrait painter. She was recently nominated as Pittsburgh Center for the Arts Emerging Artist of the Year 2008 and her work has been included in Best of America: Watercolor Artists, Watercolor Magic magazine, Palette magazine, and the Portrait Society of Americas The Art of The Portrait magazine. Although my portraits capture the likeness of the person or pet Im painting, I dont attempt to create portraits that look like photographs. Instead, I let the personality and characteristics of the subject Im painting guide my decisions. I bring my own style and ideas to the paper using color, brushstroke and composition to create mood and emotion. My greatest reward is to complete a portrait that captures not only the likeness of the person or animal, but more importantly, their unique personality.
