Pet Portraits Commission Information
Shirley and Kevin from the Uk have commissioned me to draw quite a few of their dogs over the years. Pickle is the fourth to be drawn and you can see a larger version and detail of Pickle's portrait below. I have also added a couple of reference photos, the portrait framed, along with the other portraits I have competed for them on the wall and some of the emails I have received from Shirley and Kevin. 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 Pencil Drawing with Detail
We scan the majority of our artwork here in the studio, we have an epson scanner, or for the very large drawings we take photographs of the artwork using a Sony DSLR camera, a tripod and two diffused photography lights. Our scans and photographs are always perfect quality if clients require giclee prints of their hand drawn portrait for friends or family.

Client Comments and Feedback

We are always thrilled to read our clients emails, we are in touch with clients via email and sometimes via telephone, skype and texts throughout the entire process. Clients also leave us messages on our portraits in progress blog when they are watching their portrait in progress and also comment on our facebook page too. We try to add snippets of their emails here for you to read, plus you can see more photos of happy clients with the portraits in our client feedback section too.

Thank you yet again for a "wow" portrait of Pickle. We are slowly running out of wall space.
All for now, Shirley, Kev & Flo-Jo.

Hello,
The portrait of Pickle arrived this lunch time. Blimey it was well packed. We were both speechless when we saw Pickle. It is brilliant yet a gain. Shall get it framed and match the other's, and shall take a few photographs and send them on to you. Thank you again for an outstanding, brilliant portrait. We are running out of wall space. Will be trying to take some decent photo's of Flo-Jo in the next few days. We would like another pencil portrait please. Shall be in touch, and shall let you know when we shall venture down to SUNNY Wales!!.
Take care Kev, Shirley and Flo-Jo
