Unique Pet Portraits

Commission a Custom Pet Portrait — Preserve Your Pet’s Personality Forever

Commission a Custom Pet Portrait

From a favourite photo to a hand-painted oil portrait — a lasting tribute to your beloved companion.

Each portrait is created with care and attention to capture your pet’s unique personality and the bond you shared. I work primarily in oils, which offer a beautiful richness and depth that digital images simply can’t match. The texture, colour, and life that oils bring to a portrait make each piece truly one-of-a-kind.

Whether you’re celebrating a much-loved friend or remembering one who’s gone, I’d be honoured to create something that keeps their spirit close.

I can work from clear photographs, and I’m happy to combine references if needed. For older or low-resolution images, I also offer digital portraits as a more affordable option — still lovingly painted and designed to capture the same warmth and character.

How it works:

1. Fill in the simple form below with your details and a few favourite photos.

2. I’ll be in touch within 48 hours to discuss your ideas and confirm the size, style, and quote.

3. Once you’re happy, a 30% deposit secures your booking, with the remaining balance due on completion.

No payment is required when you submit the form.

If you’d like to chat about your idea before booking, you can get in touch here — I’d love to hear about your pet and what makes them special.

”We have a couple of Sally’s paintings, both are family pets, one was our late dog Dyson, it was a present, so life like, the detail was amazing, we would not be able to recommend Sally enough so talented….”

Review of Poppy’s Portrait
"I was absolutely blown away when I received the portrait of Poppy. Sally captured her with such accuracy, care, and personality that it feels as though she’s looking straight back at me. The detail in her fur, the sparkle in her eyes, and the sweet bow on her head are all brought to life beautifully in oils. It’s more than just a painting – it’s a keepsake that reflects Poppy’s character and charm perfectly. I couldn’t have asked for a more special and heartfelt piece of art."

Raffles

Digital painting, commissioned portrait

This portrait of Raffles was created from an old photograph provided by the client. Even through the age and fading of the original image, his gentle nature came through so clearly — I wanted to capture that quiet kindness in the painting.

Working from older photos can be challenging, but it’s something I really enjoy. There’s something special about giving treasured memories new life through art, and helping to preserve them in a fresh, lasting way.
