How to place a pet portrait order

This page will guide you through the process of ordering a custom pet portrait

SOFT PASTEL PET PORTRAIT

These portraits are created in a realistic style, designed to capture the true essence of your pet. With careful attention to fur texture, subtle color shifts, and soulful expression, they offer a timeless and sophisticated representation that feels as lifelike as a cherished memory.

CHARCOAL PET PORTRAIT

These portraits are highly realistic, capturing your pet’s likeness in elegant black and white. With rich contrast, delicate shading, and expressive detail, they offer a timeless, classic feel; ideal for anyone who appreciates simplicity in beauty and depth in monochrome.

MIXED-MEDIA PET PORTRAIT

These paintings are primarily done in watercolor with a touch of gouache. They offer a stylised and uplifting portrayal of your pet, infused with bright, cheerful colors and a fun, expressive flair.

Below is a comparison of a reference photo of Chavela shared by my client and the soft pastel pet portrait I created of her in 2024, showing how I capture the personality and spirit of beloved pets.

Steps to commission a pet portrait

1. SHARE DETAILS
This page will guide you to a booking form where you can share your portrait requirements.
All portraits are created on toned paper. Customisations such as backgrounds, accessories, or special adjustments may incur an additional charge.
If you would like your portrait framed, gift-wrapped, or shipped, I can arrange that for an extra fee.
Once you submit your selections, you will be provided a personalised quote. If it works for you, you can proceed to book your portrait.

2. SEND PHOTOS
Please provide well-lit, high-resolution images of the subject. Close-up headshots work best for capturing details accurately!

A 50% non-refundable deposit is needed to confirm your booking and secure your spot in my schedule.
Please ensure that you have read the Terms & Conditions before booking. 

5. ART PROPOSAL
I’ll send you a detailed art proposal summarising everything we’ve discussed to ensure we’re fully aligned before I begin.

6. PREVIEW
Once the portrait is completed, I’ll share a clear snapshot of the final piece for your review.

The remaining balance will be due after the preview is shared and before framing, shipping or pickup.
