Portraits
“Animals are such agreeable friends - they ask no questions; they pass no criticisms.” – George Eliot
Commissioning a portrait painting is a beautiful way to celebrate the unique personality and characteristics of your beloved pet or favourite animal. I work in watercolour on paper to perfectly capture the true spirit and character of the individual.
If you would like to commission a portrait, please get in touch so we can discuss specifics, including the size of the portrait, the amount of detail, a background if desired, a time frame and budget. I work from well lit, high-quality photographs you provide, showcasing various angles and expressions. These references are crucial for me to accurately depict the features and personality, so please make them as clear as possible.
Once we have settled on the particulars of the commission, I will provide preliminary sketches or colour studies for approval before completing the final work. I like to keep in contact throughout the process, with regular updates on progress to help ensure the final piece aligns with your vision.
Where possible, my paintings are wrapped in sustainable or recycled packaging, which is an important consideration for me in providing the most environmentally friendly works.
