(1 Subject) Custom Portrait on Paper
from $285.00

This listing is for one pet subject only.

Your favorite photo transformed into a one-of-a-kind piece of art! These hand-painted custom portraits feature the natural white of the paper as the background—allowing the focus to remain entirely on your pet. This style is artistically expressive while incorporating refined brushwork and thoughtful details.

Created on fine art paper and intended to be displayed in a frame, this option offers a classic, yet minimal presentation that complements a variety of spaces and decor styles.

After purchase, you’ll be prompted to upload your main reference photo, as I work from one primary image. Supporting photos may also be included if needed to capture your pet’s unique features, markings, or fur coloring more accurately.

Custom Pet Portraits on Framed Gallery Canvas
from $400.00

These pet portraits on canvas are designed to be more of a statement piece. Your favorite photo painted in an expressive, layered style with added texture and depth. The brushstrokes are intentionally loose and slightly thicker than portraits painted on paper.

  • Each piece features a hand-painted, textured background in a warm neutral palette that adds subtle depth and interest around your pet. Custom colored backgrounds or patterns may include an additional fee depending on complexity and time required.

  • Available in a wide range of sizes, all portraits are painted on thick 2” gallery-wrapped canvases, ready to hang directly on your wall.

  • Choose from 8 frame color options to complement your home decor (Natural and Walnut shown in listing photos).

  • After check out, you will receive an email confirmation with instructions to upload your reference photo.

Note: This listing is for one pet subject only.

While I primarily focus on one subject per canvas, you may purchase two separate canvases to display side-by-side for multiple pets, OR if you would like both pets in a single composition, please add a note in your check out email me directly to add a second pet for an additional 75% of the base price, which will be invoiced separately.

Depending on the composition and reference photos, the canvas orientation may be adjusted from vertical to landscape to best fit both subjects. I will always determine the most balanced and cohesive layout before painting begins.
