Pet Portrait Commissions
I create custom pet portraits in oils, carefully painted to capture the personality and spirit that make your pet unique.
Whether for yourself or as a thoughtful one-of-a-kind gift for someone special, commissioning a custom portrait is a meaningful way to celebrate a beloved companion.
Every painting is created with care and attention to detail using quality artist materials, resulting in an original piece of artwork designed to be treasured for years to come.

Turnaround Time
Please allow around 4–6 weeks from when your portrait is started. This allows time for the paint to cure properly before varnishing and shipping. If you have a deadline - a gift, for example - just let me know and I'll do my best to accommodate your request.
Reference Photos
One good photo is important - sharp focus (especially around the eyes), natural light where possible, and a pose that looks like them. Extra photos and an insight into their personality helps me capture some of their spirit.
Here are a couple of examples of reference photo vs the final paintings:
Price Guide
Prices are for a single head-and-shoulders subject painted in oils, and include UK mainland postage and a Certificate of Authenticity.
Have a specific size or frame in mind? I'm happy to quote for that.
Notes
Paintings are supplied unframed, however if you would like help with framing options I’m happy to advise.
Stretched canvas can be hung directly on the wall, or framed in a float (tray) frame for a more finished look
Canvas board is thinner and can fit standard frame sizes, making framing more straightforward and widely accessible.
If you’re unsure which option is best, I’m always happy to advise.
