Customized Pet and Equine Portraits - Nationwide
My art aims to capture the personalities and spirits of the creatures I paint. Every animal has its own unique story, and my goal is to bring that story to life in a way that resonates with viewers. I want my work to evoke not just the appearance of an animal, but the emotions, quirks, and idiosyncrasies that make them who they are. My paintings are an invitation for others to experience the joy and wonder I feel when I encounter these animals and in the world around me.
What I Offer - Pets: From dogs and cats to exotic animals, I’ll create a heartfelt portrait of your friend.
Animals: Horses, cattle, wildlife.
People: Portraits of family, friends, or yourself that you'll treasure forever.
Places: Capture the beauty or memory of your favorite location.
Please contact and book me on PetWorks. Thank you.

🎨 About Patricia Martin

PetWorks is a nationwide pet care services marketplace where pet parents can browse and order from talented independent artists — in any style, shipped to your door. Whether you're looking for a lifelike oil painting, a vibrant watercolor, a charcoal drawing, or a stylized digital illustration, Patricia 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 Patricia: What to Expect
Ordering a custom pet portrait with Patricia is a personal, collaborative experience from start to finish. It begins online. You'll 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.
Patricia 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, Patricia 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 portraits are completed within 2–6 weeks, though timelines vary by medium, complexity, and the artist's current schedule. Always confirm turnaround with Patricia before ordering, especially if you're working toward a gift deadline.

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 — 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. Is your dog goofy and energetic, or calm and dignified? Does your cat have a signature expression? The small details you share help Patricia bring genuine character to the portrait rather than simply reproducing a likeness. 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 Patricia's pricing packages above for specific rates.
