How does the custom pet portrait process work, and what do I need to provide to get started?

Pet parents most often want to understand how the process works. Typically, an animal portrait artist in Michigan will begin by asking for one or more high-quality photos of the pet. Images that clearly show the animal’s eyes, expression, and coloring. You’ll choose a preferred medium (such as watercolor, oil, acrylic, pencil, or digital), and the artist may ask about your pet’s personality or any specific background, pose, or theme you'd like incorporated. After you approve a basic sketch or composition (in some cases), the artist completes the full portrait and delivers either the physical artwork or a digital file. The process usually takes between 1 to 4 weeks, depending on the artist’s schedule and the complexity of the piece.

Prices for custom pet portraits in Michigan vary based on factors such as the size of the artwork, the medium used, the number of pets in the portrait, and the artist’s experience. Generally, pet parents can expect to pay between $100 and $500 for a high-quality single-pet portrait. Smaller digital illustrations may start at around $75, while detailed, hand-painted portraits or multi-pet commissions can reach $600 or more. Michigan artists on platforms like Petworks typically provide clear pricing and package options.
