Giclee Prints of Your Pet Portraits If you have ordered a portrait with us and would like to order a print, or a number of prints, for your friends and family, you can do so at any time. We keep portraits on file so you can order and have them delivered to anywhere worldwide. Our prints are printed by a professional giclee printing company here in Wales. We try to keep all of our work on file so clients can come back whenever necessary and order prints at their leisure. If you would like a print sent direct to friends or family, please email us your delivery details to make sure we send the prints to the correct recipient. You can purchase our prints on our Prints Ordering Page. We accept all major debit and credit cards along with paypal plus telephone ordering too. Our webpage here gives an overview of the kinds of prints we can supply and some photos of some of the prints clients have ordered over the years.
Paper Types We provide a good choice of paper surfaces so that you can choose the best for your needs. Have a look at the sections below to se which you would prefer. Stretched Canvas Prints for Oils If you have commissioned an oil painting from us and would like a near identical print to give to friends and family, our stretched canvas prints are pretty astonishing. Our canvas prints are printed on Hahnemuhle Leonardo Canvas 390gsm a hardy, water resistant poly cotton canvas which has the highest archival standards. Every print we have received has been stunning.
Stretched canvases are ready for hanging when they arrive, you can see by the images below. They have carefully taped edges, hooks and framing string for hanging and circular pads which not only stop the picture from moving, but they minimize marking on the wall and most importantly, allow air to circulate behind the picture.

We can also ask the printing company to 'mirror' the edges for you, which is useful if you are going to hang your print unframed. This finishes the portraits off beautifully and we can guarantee that the prints are so good, viewers of the artwork wont know if this is the original or a print!

Unstretched Canvas Prints for Oils If you would like to order an unstretched canvas print, this is the cheaper option, however you may need to have it stretched at your framers before framing. It will arrive with ample amount of canvas around the edge so that you have plenty of choice as shown in the image below. Paper Prints for Oils If clients would like their oil prints on paper, we would suggest choosing the Hahnemule Torchon 285gsm paper which is an acid free watercolour paper which is especially suited to reproductions of oils. It gives a very clean and crisp print showing the colours at their best. If you opt for this paper, the prints must be mounted / matted and framed under glass. Paper Prints for Pencils For pencil drawing prints we always use Somerset Enhanced Velvet 255gsm paper produced by St Cutherberts Mill made from 100% cotton, archival artists paper. All prints on paper must be framed with a mount / matt under glass.


Framing If you would like us to frame your prints for you please contact us and we will set you up with a payment button for the exact amount. We have a variety of bespoke frames made locally by our framer Jane who frames all of our portraits and prints for us. Prices can be found on our main prices page and examples of frames can be found on our framing pages. You are more than welcome to email us with your requirements for a quote and we can get the ball rolling for you.

Multiple Prints We can also discount for multiple prints too. Please email us with the number of prints you are looking to purchase and the type - ie stretched canvas, unstretched canvas or paper prints and we will give you a quote.

Print Gallery Apart from all of the prints above, each time a print is ordered I will add it below to start a print gallery : )
