COMMISSIONS ARE OPEN!

I create custom pet portraits that honor the lives of beloved animals and bring warmth, joy, and peace into their owners’ homes. Each piece is thoughtfully painted to reflect the unique personality of every dog or cat, and I work closely with my customers throughout the entire artistic process. Communication is always kind, transparent, and timely—you're part of the journey from start to finish.

All portraits are painted with watercolors on 140 lb (300 gsm) paper, which offers excellent texture and durability. I recommend the 8x10” size, as it provides ample space to capture detailed features and expression while remaining affordable and easy to frame.

Turnaround time is typically 1–2 weeks, depending on my current queue. If you need it by a specific date (like a birthday or memorial), just let me know—I’ll do my best to accommodate.

Yes. I’ll keep you updated with progress photos, and small adjustments can be made before the final touches are added.
