Pet Painting Professional art commission

It’s more than just the likeness!

Finding out what kind of portrait you would love is essential to me.
In fact it’s a lot about capturing the character and special relationship you have with your pet, not just your pet’s likeness.

Why choose me?

To me a pet portrait is more than just getting the likeness right. I like to find out what you want me to capture in the portrait – what is important to you personally? A good likeness is non-negotiable, but did you pet have a special character trait? What about a memory of a special moment or a place where you were together? Or all of the above? There are so many possibilities, it’s essential to choose the right photo and the right approach. I will be there to help you choose and to talk you through the process, finding out what would make the absolute best portrait of your pet so you really love it!

My way of painting is combining the traditional with contemporary, to really bring the painting to life. I usually work in a loose and spontaneous style, yet keeping some areas well defined – a winning combination that doesn’t just replicate the photo you already have.

HOW IT WORKS SEE MY WORK

I found Jana on NOA earlier this year when one of our cats was very unwell and we knew the time was coming to say goodbye. From the moment we contacted her, she was wonderful and was so invested in trying to find exactly the right image to work from. The final portrait was incredible and she totally captured Elvis’s personality. We couldn’t have been happier with the final result. Highly recommend, and we’ve already sent many other pet loving people her way.

Just to say Tony is absolutely delighted with the painting! Immediately recognizes it as Patchie and can’t believe how well you have got his likeness. We have put it in study and he keeps going in to look!
