Commission a work of Art

LET’S DO THIS

, It's simple. Start with:
1. Have a Fur Family Member or a friend that does. Portraits make wonderful gifts.
2. Take great pictures of your pet to submit for a portrait. Pictures at eye level work best. Take several in different locations and with different light for options. E-mail photos from the contact page.
3. Follow "THE PROCESS" below. Let's communicate and work together to capture your pet for eternity.
4. Go to the gallery and select the medium of art you would like to purchase.
5. Select the size of art you want.
6. Click and purchase a custom pet portrait.

Prices listed are based on head portraits of one pet. Any complicated details will increase cost. If you have special requests, just contact me to work on the details. I am happy to answer any questions you may have.

THE PROCESS

Be sure and submit multiple images in jpeg format through the contact from the web site. Let me know what size of art you are thinking of and I will recommend which image will work best for the art and size. Selecting a photo is the most important part of the process and teamwork is the best approach. A cropped design will be provided for your approval.

In some cases, old photos may not have enough detail to make a good subject. I will notify you if this is the case. Photos from a distance are not ideal. I promise to be honest because we both want the best art possible.

I would like to know a little about the family member to understand who I am painting and capture all the reasons why you love them unconditionally.
