How it Works

Step 1: Share Your Favorite Photos

Every portrait begins with photographs of your pet. Choose clear images that capture your pet's personality, expression, and unique character. If you're unsure which photos to send, I'm happy to help you select the best ones.

Step 2: Discuss Your Portrait

Once I receive your photos, we'll discuss your portrait, including size, composition, and any special requests. I'll answer any questions and provide a quote before work begins.

Pricing

Please contact me for a custom quote.

All portraits are individually hand-drawn in pastel from your photographs. A complimentary consultation is included to discuss your vision and select the best reference images.

Step 3: Reserve Your Spot

A deposit secures your place on my commission schedule. I'll provide an estimated completion date and keep you informed throughout the process.

Step 4: Portrait Creation

Using soft pastels, I carefully create a custom portrait that captures not only your pet's likeness, but also the personality and spirit that make them special.

Step 5: Final Approval and Delivery

When the portrait is complete, I'll share an image for your review. Once approved, the portrait will be carefully packaged for pickup or shipping.
