Custom Portraits
Capture your pet’s unique likeness and personality with one of two custom portrait options.
Digital Painting
with Giclee Print
A hand-painted digital portrait in acrylic style. Work directly with the artist to create a piece of art to suit your pet and match your decor. Mailed to your home as a rich, vibrant gicleé print with a winter white mat. Your custom painting arrives ready to pop into your favorite frame. Comes with a timelapse video for authenticity (and fun!). No AI is used at any point in my process.
starting at $200
Original Acrylic Painting
on Canvas
A portrait of your pet in acrylic on stretched canvas. Choose your color scheme, mood, and pose to reflect your pet’s unique personality, and a canvas size to suit your decor. Comes ready to hang.
starting at $400

How does it work?
Step 1: Photos of your pet
Once I receive your order, I will reach out via your preferred contact method to receive your photos. The most helpful pictures show your pet’s face and distinctive markings. Feel free to send up to 10 photos. Good lighting with both light and shadows on your pet are essential.
Is your pet energetic, sassy or grouchy? Do they have any favorite activities or toys?
What colors will match your decor — soothing beige, earthy green, a bright pop of red?
Lastly, are there any other details you’d like to see in your painting, like plants, a collar, or a sunset?
These details help me capture your pet’s personality and deliver a painting to enhance your space.
Step 2: Tell me more!
My cat is a daydreamer who loves the garden. If he were a cartoon character, he’d be a wizard! Can there be pink flowers too?
So cute! Let’s do it 🙌
Step 3: Sketch and feedback
Next, I’ll whip up a sketch so we can imagine the painting together. Now is the time to share what you like and if there is anything you’d like changed. Don’t be shy! This is the only stage when major changes can be made, like your pet’s pose, the layout, and the color palette of the painting. I’m happy to suggest alternatives if something isn’t working for you.
Once you approve the sketch, I will start on the final painting.
I love it! Feels like spring time… and his little paws! 😍
I’ll send you updates as I make progress on your painting. This step can take several weeks depending on the size and complexity of our sketch.
One of the joys of this stage as the artist is getting to show you behind the curtain how the art is made. Feel free to ask if you have any questions.
Step 4: Sit back and relax
Fresh from my studio 🎨
Looking good!
Painting complete!
If your painting is an original on canvas, I will prepare it with a hanging wire, pack it up safely and ship via USPS.
If your painting is digital, I will send it to the gicleé printer who will process the order and ship the print to you.
Either way, I will supply you with a tracking number ASAP.
