A Perfect Pet Portrait Keepsake My pet portraits are a one of a kind keepsake for you to enjoy for years. I paint from your quality photographs. I can change the background to capture the pets personality, like the hunting lab portrait. Your portrait is painted on 140# archival quality watercolor paper. Completed pieces are mounted and wrapped, ready for framing. My standard sizes are:
~ Plus tax and shipping if needed
~ 50% deposit is required. Balance due upon completion. Allow 6-8 weeks for completion. Gift Certificates available.The perfect gift for the person who has everything and a very special surprise to treasure! I donate 10% to ASPCA. saving and protecting
TIPS ON PHOTOGRAPHY ~ Take a quality photo with good lighting. It will make it easier for me to catch all the details for your finished painting. ~ If the eyes have a "flash" glare in the photo you like best for the painting, take a few close ups of the eyes for reference. ~ Please let me know your favorite pose if you send several photos. ~ Originals Photos will be returned. Photos can be sent as an e-mail attachment. DOGS ~ Have a helper hold your pet on a leash, outside in sunlight ~ Have the sun on your pet, behind the camera, but not in the pet's eyes ~ Sit on the ground at eye level 5-6 feet away ~ The photographer should hold treats or favorite toy to get your pets ears up and alert look. ~ Take a few close ups of your pet. If there are multiple pets, please take a few photos of pets together to show size variance. CATS ~ What can I say, you are at their mercy. Keep a camera close at hand. It is best to let them be themselves and wait until they are in a nice relaxed moment. ~If you're not in a fully lit area, be sure to use a flash. |

My Abby Abby and Riley are our family cats. They would sit and watch me paint, (more interested in the water that I dipped my brush in). One day, I decided that it would be fun to paint them! That was the start to my love of painting pets.
