Special Deals on Custom Pet Portraits and Design Artworks

Pick Your Style!

Gouache Pet Portrait

Capture your pet in vibrant, velvety detail with a custom gouache portrait. Gouache combines the opacity of acrylic with the softness of watercolour, making it perfect for showcasing fur textures, expressive eyes, and colourful charm. I use only the best quality paint like Windsor & Newton paints that has good archival features.

Watercolour Pet Portrait

Celebrate your pet’s spirit with the delicate beauty of watercolour. These portraits feature fluid brushwork, gentle gradients, and translucent layers that bring out the subtle charm of your pet’s personality.

Coloured Pencil Portrait

Bring your pet to life with the fine detail and rich layering of coloured pencil. This technique allows for incredible precision—capturing every whisker, fur pattern, and sparkle in their eyes. I use Polychromos coloured pencils that build depth through subtle shading and blending, offering a realistic yet warmly hand-drawn finish.

Floral Monograms

Surround your initials with blooming charm with custom hand-painted monograms. These floral monograms are adorned with hand-painted botanicals tailored to your color palette and seasonal preferences. Blending ornamental flourishes with your chosen initials.
