How to Book Your Pet Portrait

It's easy to commission me to bring your pet's personality to life. I've kept the process simple to focus on the art.

 

1. Choose Your Size

Have a look at the table of available sizes and find the one that best fits your requirements. Once you've decided, simply follow the booking link to secure your spot in my diary.

 

2. Share Your Photos

Once you've booked I will ask you for a clear photo of your pet. A well lit, high quality photo helps me capture all those tiny details that make them who they are. For commissions of multiple pets I can merge your individual photos to create a group portrait.

 

3. Hand Drawn with Care

I use graphite on lightly textured paper for a highly detailed portrait of your pet. On completion I'll send you a digital copy to ensure you're happy before delivery.
