Loons, Sunrise Honey Harbour, 18 X 24 (Oil) -- Commissioned by Sarah Olmsted

Loons, Sunrise Honey Harbour, 18 X 24 (Oil) - Sold

I had "Loons, Sunrise Honey Harbour" commissioned by Rick Bentham for my husband's birthday.

I contacted Rick after seeing his paintings displayed in a gallery in Dundas, Ontario, and I was very impressed with his work. Rick's extremely professional nature and the close contact we kept via e-mail and on the phone made the process of ordering a commissioned piece of artwork easy and fun.

Using reference photos capturing the view from my husband's cottage, Rick created a one-of-a-kind work of art that we hang with pride in our home. I would highly recommend Rick Bentham for any commissioned work.

Molly, 8 X 10 (Oil) - Sold

I want to thank Rick Bentham very much for doing this commissioned painting of my Shi Tzu, Molly. Rick has captured Molly in every detail... right down to her little pink harness...her personality just shines through. The colours he chose were perfect.... so rich looking. I proudly display Molly's painting on my livingroom wall.

I was very impressed that Rick was able to do what he did just from a simple photo which was emailed to him.... totally amazing! He has so many different techniques in all of his paintings. I visit his website often just to view his works.... very impressive!

I would definitely recommend Rick Bentham for any commissioned work. He is very professional and truly an amazing artist. You won't be disappointed!

I look forward to Rick doing other commissioned paintings for me in the future... thanks Rick!!
