I started drawing very early. I remember sitting with my mom at around 3 years old. She'd draw a squiggle, and I'd add to that squiggle. We'd go back and forth adding squiggles until we had a complete picture. That was my favorite game with her.
I always took some kind of art classes growing up, ending up with a degree in Abstract Art from the Univ of MD, College Park. Moving forward, in 1993, I was invited by a fellow artist to participate in a new “chalk event” in Pasadena. I'd never heard of “chalking on the street” and my friend said “it's okay, none of us have”. So I said, “okay, I'm in!” (hahaha) With that, I did my first chalk, fell in love, and never looked back!
The most joyous part if doing what I do is that moment I look at the work in progress and realize that it's actually happening, my inner vision is quite possible going to be a success! (hehehe) If others enjoy what I've done, well, that's some super sweet icing the creative cake!
Please contact and book me through Petworks. Have a great day!

🌟 About Lori Antoinette
Lori is a pet portrait artist based in Palmdale, California, serving pet parents locally in Los Angeles County and surrounding areas through PetWorks, one of the leading platforms for finding and hiring pet portrait artists across the United States. With a passion for capturing the personality, energy, and spirit of animal companions, Lori creates handcrafted portraits that go far beyond what a photograph can offer — each one a genuine one-of-a-kind work of art, made from your favorite photo and tailored to your exact vision.
Working with Lori: What to Expect
Hiring a pet portrait artist is a personal, collaborative experience from start to finish. It begins with a conversation. 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.
Lori 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, Lori gets to work. Most 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 delivered to you — by mail or 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 Lori before booking, especially if you're working toward a gift deadline.

Tips for a Great Portrait
Getting the most out of your portrait 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 pet portrait 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 Lori 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 pet portrait artists welcome creative direction and will work with you to bring your vision to life.
As a general guide, pet portrait artist commissions 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 Lori's pricing packages above for specific rates.
