Christmas 2020 was a busy time for me with pet portrait commissions but I haven’t been able to post any until I was sure they had been gifted. Now that I can, here is Dodger the Cockapoo.

Not only do we accept painting commissions but we also offer pet photography. Bruce recently photographed Toast, a gorgeous American Cocker Spaniel puppy, in black & white.
Pretty in Pink
I usually opt for a neutral grey background for the pet portraits but sometimes people want something a bit more colourful. This is Rosie.

The lovely people at VetLink Online recently ran a competition with the two prizes on offer being pastel portraits, by Lorraine, of the winners’ pets. Here are the two finished portraits, which are on their way to the new owners.

If you want to surprise someone with a unique and thoughtful gift, then a charcoal sketch of their favourite pet can be an affordable but elegant choice. Charcoal portraits are available mounted or framed – all we need is a photograph.
