The Minimalist
From £180
A custom, hand-drawn portrait defined by simplicity, line, and your dog’s unmistakable character.
The Minimalist portrait is all about simplicity. These drawings strip things back to what matters most, your dog’s expression, presence, and natural character.
Rather than fine detail or elaborate backgrounds, the focus is on line, shape, and subtle mark-making. The result is a calm, thoughtful portrait that feels modern and makes you smile.
This option works beautifully for people who love understated artwork who want something uniquely personal.
