Mitch Gyson
Animal Portrait Painter           
Dogs and cats have found their way into many of Gyson's paintings over the years but his interest and commitment to pet portraiture began in earnest shortly before his arrival in New York City in 2001.  "I came to New York having just received two new commissions and upon their completion, word quickly spread to other interested collectors and I have been busy ever since".

 "In creating portraits of companion

animals it is essential for me to also see my subjects through the eyes of their human companion.  These wonderful and loving creatures are an integral part of the family and it is from examining both the human animal bond as well as the physical and behavioral characteristics of each animal that I derive my inspiration."

 

The artist lives and works in New York City with his wife Parvene Farhoody, an animal behaviorist and trainer, and their three-legged rescue dog Cassidy. Mitch's work is now sold at the William Secord Gallery  in New York City.
