Pet Portraits
I'm now offering pet portrait commissions, these are inspired by a recent trip to Thailand where I spent 3 months volunteering at a animal sanctuary. These 3 months really made me appreciated dogs fully, I was a semi dog fan before going here, but am now proud to call myself a mad dog man!
Currently i’m using pencil crayons and pencil, on paper to create the portraits. I also paint using acrylics and watercolours, so this may work its way in. I’ve recently got into pencil crayons and am trying to improve my technique. I find them an interesting medium to use and have learned a lot of things I didn’t know about pencils and paper in the last few months.
How to Commission
-
Send Photos: Provide a few clear, focused images of your pet from different angles. Natural lighting works best, and try to use a simple, uncluttered background. Share some details about your pet’s personality to help capture their essence.
-
Background Options: If you want a specific background, photograph your pet in front of it. Simple backgrounds are included in the standard price; complex ones may cost extra. Feel free to suggest a color for the background.
-
Pay Deposit: After paying the deposit, the artist will start your portrait and give an estimated completion time.
-
Review & Suggest Changes: Once the drawing is finished, you’ll receive a preview. You can request minor changes before finalizing it.
-
Shipping: Once approved, the drawing will be shipped via Royal Mail, packaged in a hardback envelope. Shipping to the UK costs £3 for A5 and £4 for A4. International shipping rates are available on request.
