Expressionistic Colorful Pet Portraits - Nationwide
As a passionate pet portrait artist with a deep love for animals, I bring your cherished companions to life through my one-of-a-kind paintings. Since October 2019, I've specialized in capturing the unique personalities of pets ranging from alpacas and birds to snakes and turtles, ensuring that each piece is a vibrant tribute to your furry, feathered, or scaled family member. With my extensive experience and dedication to quality, I use charcoal and pencil for initial sketches, followed by custom-mixed acrylic colors and layered glazes, creating an expressive texture that truly captures the essence of your beloved pet.
Being a dog owner myself, I understand the special bond we share with our pets, and I pour that understanding into every brushstroke. Each painting is crafted on high-quality canvas and framed with kiln-dried wood, available in various sizes including 12" x 16", 10" x 8", and larger upon request. While I do not offer mobile services, my work is available for review before shipping, allowing up to three edits to ensure your complete satisfaction. To maintain the vibrancy of your piece, simply dust it with a soft, wet cloth and keep it out of direct sunlight.
I'm committed to delivering an unforgettable piece of art that honors your pet's unique spirit. With a one-week cancellation policy, I aim to provide flexibility and peace of mind. Whether you're looking to celebrate a current companion or commemorate a pet who lives on in your heart, my paintings offer a timeless way to do so. Ready to get started? Book me through Petworks today and let me create a beautiful tribute to your beloved pet!

Your pet isn't just an animal that shares your home--part of the family. Artist MG Stout understands that, and is ready to help you celebrate that special, four-footed friend in the style they deserve. She creates a custom-painted portrait that you will treasure for a lifetime based on a photo you provide.
A dog owner herself, MG Stout understands that each animal has a unique personality, and she works to convey that through her work. Using the photo as a reference, she uses charcoal and pencil to make her initial sketches directly onto the canvas. She then mixes her own custom colors and uses layers of glazes that help to add an expressive texture to the piece. The final piece is vibrant and tries to capture the essence of what makes its subject unique. This is an unforgettable way to pay tribute to a current furry family member or commemorate a pet who lives on in your heart.
