Custom Pet Portrait - Oil Painting of Your Animal - Nationwide
Full of personality! I specialize in combining photos and bringing out your pet's or pets' unique personality. Your handpainted oil painting portrait will look like YOUR bulldog, not just "A" bulldog, for instance. I love the moment when I'm painting their eyes and they start looking back at me!
I'd love to paint your pet for you. I've painted nearly a thousand pet portraits of dogs, cats, birds, rats, guinea pigs, horses, etc. all around the world! I can combine photos of several pets, too, and any background you'd like. Fantastic gift!
I don't require a perfect photo, I usually work from an array of your photos.
How to order. Contact me here and send me your photos to my email. I'll take a look and we can discuss. When you purchase, you are automatically next in line in my queue. Turn around time is usually two to seven weeks depending on time of year. If you have a tighter deadline, let me know. I sometimes can work overtime on the portraits in front of yours to free up time to get yours done on time. Just ask.
For multiple portraits ordered at the same time, I discount 10%. I nearly always have a queue, I sometimes offer sales in the summer which is traditionally my slowest time of the year. "DOG DAYS OF SUMMER" sale currently on, prices on listing sizes reflect the sales prices, which normally range from $350 for an 8 x 10 to $2,200 for a 36" x 48". My most popular size is 16" x 20", which is $600 most of the year. Shipping is on me.
I guarantee 100% you will love your portrait. I've never had a return, and have painted well over 1,000 portraits, but if you're the first, return your portrait to me and I'll refund you one hundred percent. Robin
