The Minimalist - Dog Portrait Commission | Original Custom Artwork
£180.00
This minimal dog portrait commission is an original, hand-drawn artwork created in my signature pared-back style. Each piece focuses on form, posture, and expression, capturing the unique character of your dog through line and shape rather than excessive detail.
The intention is not realism, but essence. These drawings are calm, considered, portraits designed to sit beautifully within a modern home, offering a subtle and thoughtful way to honour a much-loved companion.
Every portrait is drawn individually by hand and no two are ever the same.
Materials:
Your portrait is created using professional-grade drawing materials on high-quality artist paper, chosen for its texture, durability, and archival properties.
What's Included

About the Style

Materials
I work with a combination of professional artist materials, including coloured pencils, oil pastels, and acrylic inks, acrylic paints chosen for their ability to create texture, depth, and expressive mark-making.
More Than One dog?
This commission is designed for one dog only. For portraits featuring multiple dogs, I recommend my Signature Portrait Commission, which allows for more space and greater compositional flexibility.
