PET PORTAITS
Looking for a heartfelt gift or keepsake? My pet portraits aim to capture your pet’s unique personality and create a special piece of art for your home. Whether you’re celebrating a furry friend, or honouring one that you have lost, portraits are such a special way to capture the love we have for our pets.

WHAT'S INCLUDED?
Celebrate your pet’s unique personality with a custom portrait that’s as special as they are! Each portrait I create is hand painted using high quality acrylics and stretched canvas. To preserve the longevity of your artwork, I'll finish it with a clear varnish and provide you with care instructions. If you want to include an extra touch of elegance, you can add a beautiful hand-crafted Tasmanian oak frame.
SIZES AND PRICES
Before we begin, you'll need to decide on the size for your artwork. If you are unsure what size would be ideal for your space, I would be happy to recommend a size for you. There are also many add-ons you can include to make your portrait extra special.

BOOKING
To book a pet portrait, please contact me on any of my socials, or via the booking form linked below.
To secure your pet portrait, a 40% deposit of the total price is required. The remaining balance will be due upon completion of the artwork. As I am also a full-time teacher, my schedule can be quite busy; however, I typically complete portraits within 1-3 weeks from the date of booking (excluding the Christmas period which is usually booked out). If you need the artwork by a specific date, I recommend booking in advance to avoid disappointment.
PROCESS
Once I have secured your booking, I'll be able to start working on your piece. I'll ask you to share your favourite reference photos with me. Choose favourite photos that you think best capture your pet's personality. Aim for high-resolution, eye- level shots taken in natural lighting for the best results. I usually refer to one main image, but having multiple photos from different angles, and stories about your pet, will also help me to capture their unique personality. I understand that some of our pets are no longer with us, so I am happy to work with whatever images you have.
DELIVERY
I prefer to organise pick up or delivery if you live in Orange or Bathurst. However, if you aren't local, I will arrange Australian postage for you at an additional cost. I wrap each artwork in acid-free tissue paper to protect the surface of the artwork. Then, I wrap it in brown paper and tie it off with gold ribbon. If the portrait is a gift, be sure to let me know if you'd like to include a special message to add a personal touch.
