Customer Reviews

Losing a furry family member is never easy. We weren’t ready to say goodbye to our sweet yet very sassy Coco and wanted a painting in her memory. I reached out to Corneille, as well as a few other artists, but Corneille won me over and she did the most amazing portrait of Coco!! I can’t describe how when you look at the painting, you know it is her. She did such an amazing job, such great detail and care, as if Coco was her own. I would, and hope, to use her again - Donella

Corneille did an excellent job creating a portrait of my beloved dog and soulmate, Ms. Harley. She was able to capture Ms. Harley’s loyalty, devotion, and wonderful spirit as well as creating her beauty. I would recommend Corneille’ work to everyone. She did such a lovely job with my sweet Ms. Harley, that I am going to employ her to do portraits of my two adult daughters’ dogs.

- Ann N

Amazing--- both working with Corneille and the portrait she created! I reached out to Corneille to paint a dog painting for a friend. I had purchased a bee portrait by Corneille at an art show in the past, and family members have worked with her and speak so highly of Corneille and her art. The remote process was so simple; I sent her several photos and Corneille really wanted to get to know her "subject!" She shared that the eyes were the most important part so we worked together to select which photos best showed his personality. I was amazed how she was able to quickly capture him as much as the photo. She asked for critical feedback to assure she captured him. We decided that the eyes needed to be a little darker--- as soon as that simple change happened, he just came to life. Corneille was a joy to work with and the best testament to her work was the look of sheer surprise and amazement my friend had when she opened her gift. Priceless! Warm Regards, Jill Y.

I just picked up the most beautiful pet portrait that Corneille painted for me. I got emotional because she captured so perfectly this beautiful dog’s face. Corneille kept me up to date by sending me pictures as she painted & was a delight to work with. She is so talented. This portrait will be treasured always.

- Leslie P

Corneille has painted 3 pet portraits for us and we love, love, love them! She exquisitely captures every detail to include their beautiful eyes. We are so lucky that our pet family will always be with us, thanks to Corneille and Pet portraits by Corneille! Highly recommend!

Whether you're looking for a custom portrait of your dog, cat, or another beloved animal, Corneille works with you to turn your favorite photograph into a one-of-a-kind piece of artwork.

Depending on the artist's style and offerings, artwork may include watercolor, acrylic, oil painting, pencil, charcoal, or digital illustration. Browse Corneille Little's portfolio to explore examples of their work and the styles they offer.


Working with Corneille: What to Expect


Hiring a pet portrait artist is a collaborative experience. Start by sharing photographs of your pet and discussing the style, medium, size, and composition you have in mind. You can also explain any personal details you'd like reflected in the artwork, such as your pet's distinctive markings, favorite expression, or a memorable pose.


Corneille can discuss your ideas, review your reference photos, and explain the available options before beginning the commission. Some artists may recommend a particular photograph or suggest adjustments to help achieve the desired composition. Confirm the artwork details, pricing, estimated completion time, and delivery arrangements before placing your order.


Once the commission is agreed upon, Corneille creates your portrait. Some artists share progress photos or offer opportunities for feedback before the artwork is completed. These arrangements vary by professional, so ask about previews and revisions when discussing your commission.

If you have a particular style in mind, use Get Custom Quote or Send Message to ask whether Corneille can accommodate your request.


Tips for a Great Pet Portrait


A good reference photograph gives your artist useful details to work from. Choose a clear, well-lit image that shows your pet's face, eyes, coloring, and distinctive features. Natural light and sharp focus can help the artist see details that may be difficult to capture in a dark or blurry photograph. Pictures taken near your pet's eye level can also provide a useful perspective.


If you have several favorite photos, share more than one and ask Corneille which image may work best. You can also describe your pet's personality, favorite expressions, and the qualities you most want the portrait to capture. If you have a preferred background, color palette, size, or composition, mention those details when discussing your commission.


Pricing and Portrait Turnaround Times


Pet portrait commission prices vary according to the artist, medium, artwork size, number of pets, level of detail, and additional customization. Review Corneille Little's listing packages for current pricing. If your preferred style or composition is not listed, select Get Custom Quote to discuss a personalized project.


Completion times vary based on the artist's schedule, the complexity of the artwork, the selected medium, and the number of subjects. Ask Corneille for an estimated completion timeframe before placing your order, especially if the portrait is intended as a birthday, holiday, anniversary, or memorial gift.
