“Every painting is my way of capturing beauty and love in a world that yearns for more of both.

Our bond with the animals we walk this earth alongside is a deeply special thing; intangible, yet its weight and importance is unmistakable.

My life’s work is creating timeless heirloom pieces, rendered in warm light and exquisite detail, that offer the viewer a private moment in communion with our beloved companions; as though the rest of the world is falling away and only your connection with this precious soul remains.”

The signature Justin uses to sign his artwork, a flowing, stylized rendition of "J Westphal".
