Frequently Asked Questions
-
I do not use AI. Every portrait is hand drawn or hand painted by me from start to finish. This allows me to capture your pet’s unique character, expression, and personality rather than simply copying a photograph. AI can imitate styles, but it cannot understand your pet the way a human artist can.
-
I am a professional artist with over 10 years of experience working across both digital and traditional mediums. Drawing animals is a skill I have refined over many years, focusing on anatomy, expression, and detail to create portraits that feel lifelike and personal.
-
Digital portraits are under £20. These are hand drawn digitally by me and delivered to you once complete, making them ideal for print at home gifts or sharing online.
Hand painted physical portraits start at £200 and increase depending on size and complexity. These are original artworks and include free delivery to UK addresses
-
You can order directly through my Etsy shop. When ordering, please make sure you select the size and type of portrait you would like. Once your order is placed, send your reference photographs to me via Etsy messages.
-
Clear, well lit photos work best, and phone photos are absolutely fine. Please send several images if possible and let me know if you have a favourite. Different angles help me capture your pet more accurately and bring their personality into the final artwork.
-
Yes. My goal is always to create a portrait that feels like your pet, not just one that looks like them. If your pet has any distinctive traits, expressions, or quirks, feel free to tell me. These details help me create a more meaningful and personal piece of art
-
If you need a portrait by a specific date, please contact me before ordering. I am happy to accommodate deadlines where possible, but availability can vary. If I cannot meet your deadline, I will always be honest upfront.

Pet portraits make thoughtful, personal gifts that last a lifetime. Whether it is a celebration, a memorial, or simply a way to honour a beloved pet, a custom portrait is a meaningful keepsake that is far more personal than a generic present.
