Pet Portrait Painting Information

Patrick commission me to paint a portrait of her lovely collie called Gina in 2009 in oils on canvas size 12 x 10. As you might read from Patricks email below, I very much enjoyed painting Gina as she is very similar to our old dog Jenny who passed away a few years ago. It bought back some lovely and funny memories of my dog and I hope that this portrait of Gina will do the same for her family. I have added some refernce photos I worked from and a final scan with detail of Ginas portrait. I hope you enjoy this page of information and if you would like to commission us to paint your pet don't hesitate to email us at any time.

The Pet Portrait Painting in Progress....

Photos are taken during the progress of the portrait in our studio. The lighting can change throughout the day which can account for colour differences between each stage.

Client Pet Portraits Reference Photos
The photos depicted below may vary in colour to the finished painting above. This can be due to the scanned oil painting being slightly different to the original or often clients give us more than one photo to work from i.e. one for the pose and another for colouring.
