At this time, I only offer portraits in black & white, with a simple, shaded background. I make them with charcoal and white paint on neutral toned paper, similar to the style you see in the “Work” section.
All drawings come on toned, 100% rag cotton printmaking paper, flat packed in its own cardboard folio, ready to drop in a frame or to be wrapped and given as is.
If you have a preference of the tone of paper used, please note this in your request, and I’ll send you a photo of the stock I currently have.

I will need a clear photo of your pet first and foremost to get started!
As much as possible, photos should be a close up of the pet, focusing on the head and shoulders, and in bright, preferably natural lighting. Please no photos where the pet is shadowed or blurry.
If you are unsure if you have a good photo to work from, please pick out a few ahead of time to send.
I will do my best to accommodate the photos you have, but I reserve the right to reject the project if the photo is not adequate to work from.

To get started, please click the “Get a portrait!” button, or navigate to the “Contact” page. Please have your reference photo(s) ready at time of submission.
Fill out the form, in the message box please include your desired size, if there is a timeline for the project, and any additional questions or requests.
I will respond in 2-4 business days from the time you submit, if turnaround is more than two weeks out I will say so. Please note that any rush orders are subject to an extra charge. I will ask for your photos and preferred payment method, please be ready to send them!
Once I review your photos and we agree on the details, I will send you a payment request for the total, plus shipping. Once you pay the total, I add your project to my queue and get started. Unless otherwise stated, you can expect your drawing done two weeks from the time you submit payment.
If you neglect to complete payment, I will not start your drawing, and your project will be delayed. I am not responsible for this situation if it should arise!

At this time, I primarily do single pet portraits and cannot combine multiple different photos into one portrait. If you’d like two or three (or more) pets done, please consider purchasing multiple portraits.
The only time I do multiple pets in a portrait is if they are already all in the same photo. If you have a photo that you think fits this well, I am happy to review it! Please reach out through the contact form, and I will send you a quote for price.
Any other special requests or unique project ideas, don’t hesitate to reach out, I’d love to hear them!
