Custom Hand-Painted Acrylic Pet Portraits - Nationwide
From the moment I painted my first portrait of Nestor, my beloved cat, I knew I had found a calling. This passion evolved into @nyclovebugs, where I specialize in crafting custom hand-painted acrylic and watercolor pet portraits that capture the true essence of your furry, feathered, or scaled family members. My practice is driven by the belief that pets are more than just their physical features—they are full of unique character and life, just as their owners see them. I am based in New York City but work with pet parents nationwide to create art that resonates deeply with each client.
With a classical fine art education and extensive experience in both acrylic and watercolor mediums, I bring a blend of technical precision and heartfelt warmth to every portrait. Over the years, I have had the joy of growing up with a diverse array of animals, including fish, frogs, parrots, and hamsters, alongside my beloved cats and dogs. This personal connection to a wide variety of pets informs my ability to paint any animal you hold dear, from alpacas to turtles. I welcome custom requests to ensure each piece is as unique as the pet it represents.
Whether you are looking to commemorate a cherished pet, gift a friend with a meaningful piece of art for a birthday, holiday, or housewarming, or create a touching memorial for a beloved companion, my portraits are designed to touch hearts. Ready to celebrate your pet's unique spirit? Book me through PetWorks today!

🎨 Oksana Tykha — Order Custom Pet Portraits Online, Shipped Nationwide
Oksana Tykha creates custom pet portraits ordered entirely online and shipped nationwide anywhere in the United States. Unlike Pet Portrait Artists, PetWorks' local category for hiring an artist near you, Custom Pet Portraits is built for pet parents who want to order online and have their portrait shipped to their door, regardless of location.
Whether you're looking for a realistic oil painting, a vibrant watercolor, a charcoal drawing, or a stylized digital illustration, Oksana works with you to create a one-of-a-kind portrait that captures your pet's personality, spirit, and the qualities that make them yours.
Ordering with Oksana: What to Expect
Ordering a custom pet portrait with Oksana is a personal, collaborative experience from start to finish. It begins online. Share your favorite photos of your pet, discuss the style and medium that appeals to you, and talk through any specific ideas or requests you have in mind.
Oksana takes the time to understand not just what your pet looks like, but who they are: their character, their quirks, and the qualities that make them yours.
From there, Oksana gets to work. Most custom pet portrait artists on PetWorks share progress photos along the way, giving you the opportunity to provide feedback and request adjustments before the portrait is complete. Once you're happy with the result, your finished portrait is shipped directly to your door or delivered as a digital file, depending on the medium and your preference. Most orders are completed within 2–6 weeks, though timelines vary by medium, complexity, and the artist's current schedule. Always confirm turnaround with Oksana before ordering, especially if you're working toward a gift deadline.

Care Coverage at checkout gives you access to PetWorks' live Concierge team, full refunds if an order is canceled through no fault of yours, and help resolving any issues along the way.
Tips for a Great Custom Pet Portrait
Getting the most out of your order starts with good reference photos. Clear, well-lit shots taken at your pet's eye level work best. Natural light is your friend, since flash-heavy photos tend to flatten features and wash out color. Capture a few different expressions and angles if you can: a close-up of the face, a relaxed resting shot, and a playful or characteristic pose gives your artist the most to work with.
Beyond photos, the more you can share about your pet's personality the better. If you have a specific style, background, or size in mind, mention it upfront. Most custom pet portrait artists welcome creative direction and will work with you to bring your vision to life.
As a general guide, custom pet portrait orders in the US typically range from $75–$200 for small portraits, $200–$500 for medium, and $500–$1,200 or more for large or multi-pet works. Browse Oksana's pricing packages above for specific rates.
