Realistic representation of your animal on wood with every detail better than a photo. Why on wood? I have been drawing and painting on wood for over 20 years. Something about the warmth it brings to the portrait and the physical permanence of the piece. Sit on your desk or hang on the wall these portraits don't need expensive framing after paying for the portrait. I completely protect the portrait from moisture and fingerprints and give a walnut stand for display options. I spend 10 hours minimum on each portrait making sure I have captured your animal's personality. 6" x 6" is the most popular size because of the precious way you can display anywhere and easily create an animal family wall but any size is possible!
All animals welcome and their human counter parts upon request!
