MT Pet Portraits - Tampa Florida - Nationwide
My name is Mark Trowell. I’m a firefighter paramedic and I do pet portraits as a side job. My medium is soft pastels on pastel May paper. My portraits are colorful and very detailed. The end result is more realism than loose or abstract but I don’t attempt photorealism. I want the portrait to look like the animal I’m drawing, to be detailed, but I want it to have exaggerated colors and highlights. Art isn’t supposed to look like a photo. The clients that I have sold portraits to have only expressed gratitude. Please contact and book me on Petworks. Thank you.
Pricing Packages
I typically do pastel portraits that are 8.5”x12.5” but I can go larger. Black and white charcoal portraits is also an option. Going bigger looks even better but takes more time and pastels so the charge will be more but in my opinion is better. If I can be of service I’m happy to help. Also, smaller portraits usually take between 3-5 hours whereas larger portraits defined as greater than 20” may take 10 hours or more, depending on the complexity of the subject.
