When Their Portrait Deserves to Make a Statement.

Pet Portrait drawings or paintings are a one-of-a-kind gift for any special occasion, whether it be a birthday, Christmas, graduation gift or even just in memory of a beloved pet who has crossed the rainbow bridge. Pet loss gifts in a time of grief are always highly appreciated by the recipient.

I specialise in highly realistic custom pet portraits. Pet Portraits are available from A5 size to A2 size. Larger or custom sizes are available upon request. You can order your portrait in either Coloured Pencil or Graphite (grey) Pencils.

Portrait Size Guide

The best place to start is to decide on the most appropriate size for your artwork. When you request a quote, I will make recommendations based on the reference images you sent me. Take into consideration where the artwork will be displayed – do you require a small piece to display on a nightstand or a large statement piece for the walls?
