Welcome to my website!

My name is Kim Ratigan and I am a fine artist specializing in animal portraiture and nature art. I am an accomplished and experienced artist, and have quietly created portraits and paintings for Canadian and US clients for well over 20 years.

As a long-time, full time advertising illustrator, I have been given the opportunity to draw and create many images, but still find that I achieve the greatest creative satisfaction from my fine art. To this end, I found myself starting to concentrate more and more on my fine art and have developed this website to showcase it.

My site contains information about commissioning a portrait, showcases samples of my portraiture and lists original paintings offered for sale.
And for those need something different for the next birthday, housewarming or wedding gift, gift certificates are also available.

I hope you enjoy your wander through my pages, and welcome you to contact me with any comments or questions you may have.

Don't forget to bookmark Just A Gallery, as the site will be continually updated with new portraits and paintings.
