Love your pet? Commission a unique oil painting portrait! Process and pricing:
To start, owner will submit at least 1 crisp, high resolution image of your pet. This picture will serve as the primary painting reference in terms of likeness, expression and emotion. Pictures may be sent by email to [email protected]. Once a general conception of the portrait has been established, I would lik
e to come for a "home visit" in order to meet your pet and get a better sense of their energy and personality. During our "play-date," be it in your home or at the dog park, I can play with the pet and take a few more pictures for myself. These photographs may serve as additional references, or as the primary reference photo if necessary. After the photo session, we can review the photographs together to decide upon the best supporting images. If distance or scheduling a visit proves to be an issue, I can do the portrait from a photograph without meeting the pet in-person.
