Original Pet Portraits in selling Colored Pencil, Custom pet painting/drawing from photo, commission pet portrait, pet face painting,

You have the option for a beautiful pencil drawing in sizes 8.5" x 11" ($112) or 11"x14" ($148). This is an investment, I understand but has to be the most thoughtful gift for a loved one, a finely detailed drawing of their other selling loved one.

I draw any animals and from any photos. Just as long as I have all the details you want. The best portraits come from a good photo with good light. Some of the points to think of, 1. natural light, go outside but if you have an indoor photo you love, that is good. 2. make sure the photo is clear and try to get a shot of the full body. Even if I just do the face, it is good to know what the rest looks like. 3. Keep it close. Eye-level is the best. I want to put in all the detail I can 4. Send several photos if you can.

Yes, I have had many opportunities to do a portrait from a bad photo. This often comes from a favorite that fell in the pool to a great shot of the dog's character but it's too blurry. Then the animal is no longer with us. We can still work around that, most of the time. It helps to know the kind of breed, and size. Like before, we need as many photos as we can get, doesn't matter if they were once wet, dried in the sun or run over in the mud. There must be a way and we will find it together.

So, the way it works, you send me some photos via Etsy message and we can talk. I do a preliminary drawing, if you like it, I will continue. I send you a photo of the finished work and you approve and pay. I will send you the drawing.
