I'm a custom pet portrait artist based in Greenville, South Carolina. My medium is graphite using the grayscale. I can ship orders anywhere in the US. To place an order please text or email 3-5 favorite photos of your beloved pet for me to use as a reference for a hand drawn original piece of artwork. There is approximately a 1-2 week turnaround time to complete. I will text you a photo of the drawing once complete before shipping and request payment for shipping via text once I know the shipping cost. The smallest and most popular size offered is an 8x10 of one animal and comes matted and framed - all for $290. Multiple animals/people can be drawn together from separate photos for an additional fee and a larger 11x14 size might be recommended by the artist of which pricing starts at $390.

- Kim Mπ About Ashley Brickner
Ashley is a pet portrait artist based in Greenville, South Carolina, serving pet parents locally in Greenville 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, Ashley creates handcrafted portraits that go far beyond what a photograph can offer β each one a genuine one-of-a-kind work of art, made from your favorite photo and tailored to your exact vision.
Working with Ashley: 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.
Ashley 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, Ashley 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 β by mail or as a digital file, depending on the medium and your preference. Most portraits are completed within 2β6 weeks, though timelines vary by medium, complexity, and the artist's current schedule. Always confirm turnaround with Ashley 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 β 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 Ashley 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 β 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 $75β$200 for small portraits, $200β$500 for medium, and $500β$1,200 or more for large or multi-pet works. Browse Ashley's pricing packages above for specific rates.
