Pet Portraits in Watercolour

A specially commissioned, realistic painting by a professional pet portrait artist is an increasingly popular way to remember and celebrate a much loved companion. I have been painting portraits of people's pets for many years with happy customers all over the world.

 I specialise in life-like watercolour paintings. I paint dogs, cats, horses, birds (or any favourite animal) and I make every effort to ensure that you are completely happy with the final painting. The 'How to Order' page has lots of helpful tips and full details of the basic information I need to produce your pet's portrait if you decide to commission a painting. Pet Portrait Gift Certificates are also available if you would like to give a unique and memorable present!

I work from photographs and, as a rule, the better the photos you are able to send the better the final portrait will be. The 'Photo Tips' page has advice on taking or selecting the best photographs of your pet for the painting. I will be happy to give you a personal quote based on your requirements for your pet portrait.

Watercolour is the most wonderful medium to work in and gives results that are simply stunning. I use both transparent and opaque colour. Its flexibility makes it equally suited to sweeping washes and extraordinary detail; for me it is the perfect choice for a beautifully life like portrait of any animal. All of the paintings in the Pet Portrait Galleries here have been a pleasure to work on - I hope you enjoy them too and look forward to hearing from you if you would like to commission your very own!
