Why Commission a Pet Portrait?

Pet portraits aren’t just artwork—they are soulful keepsakes celebrating the unique bond you share with your furry friends. Each piece captures your pet’s personality, spirit, and the love they bring into your life.

Plus, your purchase makes a difference! A portion of every pet portrait commission supports non-profit, no-kill animal shelters such as A New Leash on Life and Friends of Rescue; organizations that helped my family welcome four beloved grand-pets. My studio sidekick, Ki-Lani, also joined our family through Friends of Rescue!

Pet portraits are also meaningful gifts for life moments like graduations, anniversaries, birthdays, first-time home buyers—or simply to say “I love you.” They serve as heartfelt reminders of love, comfort, and the loyal companions who have been there through thick and thin.

Each painting captures not just their pet, but a piece of their journey.

Steps to Commission Your Pet Portrait:

1. Choose Your Portrait Size & Payment

  • Select your preferred size: 5x7, 8x10, 11x14, or 16x20.

    • Small (4x6, 5x7, 8x10 inches): Fits easily on a desk or shelf; standard farmes are widely available.

    • Medium (11x14, 12x16): Ideal wall portrait size; can be framed yourself or I can provide a frame for an additional fee.

    • Large (16x20+): Statement piece for prominent display; framing available upon request.

  • For custom sizes or multi-pet portraits, email me and I will send an invoice with a payment link.

  • Full payment is required before I begin creating your custom commission portrait.

2. Share Your Pet Portrait Vision:

  • After your payment, click the 'Email Me' link to share your vision. Include:

    • Preferred portrait style

    • Size

    • Special details, favorite toy, or choice of background

    • Any other elements to reflect your pet’s uniqueness

3. Send Photos:

  • To ensure the best results, provide at least two high-quality, clear photos of your pet.

  • Photos should be well-lit, in focus, and high resolution

  • Avoid low-quality, pixelated, blurry, poorly-lit images, as reference quality directly impacts the level of detail in the final painting.

  • Detailed instructions for submitting photos will be provided after your initial email.

4. Choose Your Portrait Style:

Select the framing style that best suits your pet:

  • Headshot: Focuses on the pet’s head, face, and expression.

  • Head & Shoulders: Includes part of the pet’s upper body.

  • Full Body: Captures the pet’s entire body, from head to tail.

  • Ensure your reference photos reflect your chosen framing.

5. Payment Confirmation & Invoice:

  • Once I've received your details and reference photos, I will confirm the portrait style, size, references, and other details.

    • Single-pet portraits: Price confirmed in your initial order.

    • Multi-pet portraits: Each additional pet incurs an extra, calculated as 10-30% of the total portrait price, depending on portrait size and composition complexity:

      • Small (5x7, 8x10 inches):

      • Medium (11x14, 12x16):

      • Large (16x20+):

  • Note: The final price is determined by the number of pets and the complexity of the composition.

    If you requested a custom size or multiple pets, or both, I will send you an invoice with a total amount and a payment link.

    Full payment is required before I begin creating the artwork and before it is shipped.

6. Timeline & Shipping:

  • Smaller portraits: 3-7 business days

  • Larger or more complex portraits: longer depending on detail

  • Delivery times may vary due to weather or carrier delays; you will be kept updated through the tracking number provided.

  • Shipping delays are out of my control once the artwork is dispatched.
