  • These custom canvas portraits are designed to be more of a statement piece. Painted in an expressive, layered style with added texture and depth, the brushstrokes are intentionally loose.

    Each portrait features a hand-painted background that complements your pet’s photo. Available in a wide range of sizes, all portraits are painted on thick 2” gallery-wrapped canvases, which are ready to lean on a shelf or hang directly on your wall.
