impressionistic work of contemporary art, by San Diego artist 
Marna Schindler. Order a custom pet portrait today!
After earning a fine arts degree from San Diego State 
University, Marna worked as a graphic designer and illustrator 
for over 15 years. Now a full-time painter, Marna finds 
inspiration daily from her own fabulous feline Hopper, as well 
as from her travels across the colorful southwest. Combining 
her deep affection for animals and art, Marna “fell into” 
painting pet portraits a few years ago, when a painting for a 
friend garnered an overwhelming response (“Happy Hank”, 
above).  Marna delights in capturing the spirit of her subjects 
using vivid color and a unique expressive style.  As of 2008, 
Marna is honored to have already painted over 100 four-
legged friends.  A percentage of the proceeds from Marna’s 
pet portraits is donated yearly to non-profit organizations and 
shelters benefiting animals.  Marna currently lives and paints 
out of her studio in downtown San Diego, California.

Marna featuring your own best friend, visit DoggonitArt.com.
