Pet Portraits are the Perfect Present!

August 28, 2009 

As some of you know, I have a Bachelor of Fine Art in Illustration, which to most simply means: “I am a good drawer”. Well, I haven’t really been able to draw as often as I like to, so it is always fun when I get a new art project to do. This week I drew a PET PORTRAIT for a client. We also picked out a frame and will be cutting a mat for the piece. Then this beautiful puppy portrait is going to be a wedding gift for her friends who are getting married this weekend. Since this dog is “their baby”, she is sure they will love it…it could even be the best present they get! Certainly the most thoughtful and unique!

I have done a lot of portraits of both pets and people (usually babies/children) that were commissioned to be given as gifts. I can do these type of pieces in graphite (pencil), pen & ink or colored pencil and I usually make the drawings 5″ x 7″  or 8″ x 10″ in size. Of course my pricing is totally affordable, too. If you are interested in commissioning a piece (for yourself or to be given as a gift for a birthday, baptism, wedding, Christmas, etc.) please email me! I would love to start another one of these fun projects!
