“Until one has loved an animal a part of one’s soul remains unawakened.”
Here Is How It Works…
Using multiple photos you send me through DropBox (I will email you that link after you place your order), I create the reference photo, that allows me to create the perfect setting of your pet(s).
From there, I create a digital custom painting of your pet - using custom brushes, my signature style of textures and lights, and a bit of sensitivity to capture what your pet is all about.
Custom additions can be made - add a pet, add their toys, dress them up, put them in fun situations - anything goes to let me capture their identity and character. Extra Pets incur an extra fee of $100 per animal .
They do NOT have to be in the same image - just send pictures of each animal, and I will arrange them together to make it work.
The creation process can take up to 6 weeks - it will depend on how long my waitlist is, but usually I can accommodate rush orders if needed.
Usually, I can work from photos you already have - send me face pictures, some poses of sitting, laying down, etc., but try to get all those from your pet’s eye-level - or slightly below. It will make your pet portrait much more striking.
Make sure they are not blurry so I can see details, and if you have them in good lighting, that always helps. If I can’t see the details, those details will be missing in the finished painting.
I will send you a preview of the finished piece to critique and make any changes if necessary.
The final digital painting is output onto heavy gloss canvas, varnished twice, lightly embellished to add highlights to the eyes and fur, and shipped carefully packaged via Priority Mail.
