Commission a Portrait
Commission a portrait of your best friend for yourself or as a gift for a loved one!
Send me an e-mail with pictures of your pet, as well as the preferred canvas size for an estimate. I'm also happy to recommend a size based on the composition of your photo.
Paintings start at $150 and prices are determined by the canvas size, number of animals, combining photos and shipping costs.
For best results, the photos should be clear with good lighting and nothing blocking the animal you want painted, like hands, leashes, blankets, etc. The best portraits come from pictures that are taken at your pet's eye level. The eyes are the most defining characteristic and reveal the personality of an animal; they are my favorite part of the portrait to paint! I encourage pictures that reveal your pet’s soulful eyes, especially for a smaller sized portrait.
A 50% deposit is required to start the painting once we have agreed upon an image and canvas size. Please allow approximately 4-12 weeks for the painting to be completed (time to complete is dependent on the size of the portrait) .
