Pet Portraits and Commissions


Yes, I do commissions!
More and more people are asking, so here's how to do it.

Check out the price list below and decide on what size you would like, and contact me. You will need to take several photos of the animal or object to be painted. Try not to use a flash because it will obliterate your pet's eyes! Outdoor or natural light is best. After you email the digital images to me we will discuss our options for composition and preferred colors, and when you need it done, etc.

Before starting to paint I will email a rough pencil sketch of the composition for your approval. Then I get to work! When I have reached a completion stage, I will again email you a picture of the (almost) finished painting so you can have final say on any little modifications. Finally, I will apply a coat of varnish and it will be ready for you to pick up (if you live local), or I can ship it to you. (extra postage costs will be charged.)

Paintings will be completed with acrylic on wrapped canvas. The finished painting can be hung on the wall as is without a frame!


Price List:

5" x 7"        $60
6" x 6"        $60
6" x 8"        $80
8" x 8"        $100
8" x 10"      $120
10" x 10"    $150
12" x 9"      $150
12" x 12"    $180
14" x 11"    $180

How long will it take? If I don't have conflicts or other commissions ahead of yours, it will take about a week, but since life usually has conflicts, allow 2-3 weeks.  Plan ahead if this is to be a gift for someone!
