Pet Portraits
Pet portraits are a great way to celebrate the life of your furry friend. I offer a number of options, from small affordable watercolours through to detailed realistic paintings. I’m always happy to discuss your requirements before you make any commitment.
To book commissions for pet portraits , the first thing to I prefer to do is have a conversation to ensure I can meet your required timeline and expectations. I’d hate you to purchase a picture of your animal only to find my schedule can’t accommodate it.
With that in mind, here’s a quick note on my current situation (valid at 9th March 2022).
Pet portrait availability : from 21st March I can start a new project but this is fast moving date. Please contact me now if you’d like one done.
Conditions of Commissioning a Painting
Obviously, the moment I pull out the brushes and start planning your piece, my time is devoted to your commission. In order to secure a booking, I require a 40% deposit. We’ll keep in touch throughout the process to make sure you’re happy with progress.
Good photos are a critical element to a successful portrait, so I’ll need a few of those to help me understand the nuances of your pet – both in their look and character!
I’ve only had the pleasure of painting pet portraits in the UK for the last few months, and I get lots of pleasure from the reaction of my clients. I’d love to capture the spirit of your pet too.
