Pet Portrait Painting Information
Helen (UK) emailed me in 2010 to find out if I would be able to paint their dog Ted from one particular photo they liked but use another photo to open his eyes. This doesn't work in a lot of cases, but in Ted's case, it was going to be absolutely fine. The reference photos were great, they were taken from the same angle and so it wasn't a problem. I have added a few photos of Ted below, along with stages of the portrait, a final scan, a detail of the painting and a lovely testimonial form both Helen and Bill when they received the painting. It was an oils on linen canvas 16 x 12 size. 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.
Client Testimonial
Hi Melanie,
Just writing to let you know the portrait arrived safely this morning.
Bill was absolutely delighted with the portrait and we're both so impressed with how well you've captured Ted exactly. It's like having him in the room with us again. It's so life-like, you could almost imagine him stepping off the canvas. Thank you for painting such a wonderful portrait to remember him by - every day. We'll be sure to send you a photo once it's framed.
With our best wishes
Helen and Bill
