Pet Portraits

Pet Portrait - a perfect gift

Original painted portraits in Oil Paint, Pastels or Charcoal.

How to Commission a Pet Portrait:

  • Commissioning a pet portrait is simple:

  • Send a selection of photographs of your pet. I’ll advise on which image will work best for a portrait. We agree size, format, and price upfront

  • Your portrait is created in my Lewes studio.

  • Please be assured I can paint a great likeness of all pets. Just because there isn’t a cat or other pet in my examples does not mean I can’t paint them.

  • Collection or UK-wide delivery is arranged when complete

  • Turnaround times vary, but as a guide. The pastel and charcoal drawings take 5 - 10 days and the oil portraits take up to 3 weeks I’ll confirm this before starting.

Choosing the Right Photo

The best pet portraits come from clear, natural photos with good light and a relaxed pose. So take plenty of shots in different conditions and send them over to me—I’ll then let you know what will translate well into a painting or drawing. Just avoid low light indoors, as there’ll be no detail or too brilliant sunshine outdoors which ironically gives the same problem!
