Unique Custom Pet Portraits

Click the “Get Started” button above to fill out a form where you can tell me all about your pet. Tell me everything! getting to know them is my favorite part. I will follow up with you as quickly as possible in an email, and you can send me reference photos of your pet. Then I’ll be off to the drawing board!

That’s ok! Some people have an historical period or character in mind for their portrait; others don’t. Don't worry if you're not quite sure- we can brainstorm together via email—I have loads of ideas! Or, if historical portraiture isn’t your thing, I can just illustrate your pet being his or himself.

My illustrations are sketched in pencil on paper first, then scanned and digitally inked and painted using tools such as Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop and Procreate. All art is original, made with human intelligence; never A.I.

Depending on my bookings, anticipate about 2-3 weeks turnaround time from when the order is placed to when you receive your finished portrait. Leading up to the holidays, I may get busy, so lead times may be longer— I’ll always keep you updated on wait times and will do my best to accommodate reasonable deadlines for gifts!

Yes, of course! Depending on the portrait complexity, there will be an additional charge (about $50 per additional animal). Feel free to reach out with any questions.

Well, that is the hope! I always take the time to get to know your pet. I’ll ask you to tell me all about them, and to send me several photos showing their personality and character. I then use these details to create a whimsical portrait that captures the essence of your furry friend, though it's important to note that my style is best described as "playful children's-book-style illustration," rather than photo-realistic portraiture.

Absolutely! The price of the custom portrait includes one 8×10” print, but you may order as many additional prints as you like to use as gifts, or even holiday/greeting cards (as long as you don't sell them commercially, as I retain the copyright on all my artwork).

At the moment, orders are open. If I become overloaded with orders, sometimes I will temporarily pause new commissions, but you can always email me to see when I’ll be ready for a new batch of portraits. Please sign up for my mailing list for notifications! Meanwhile, if custom orders are paused, may I interest you in a ready-to-frame art print from the current collection?

As of now, I do not offer framing as a standard option. All prints arrive unframed and carefully packed in cardboard mailing tubes or flat pack. However, I can help facilitate custom framing for you in cooperation with my printer for a small additional charge, plus the extra cost of the framing.
