Every portrait begins with character. I focus on expression, body language, and presence, allowing your dog’s personality to guide the composition. Any styling is added thoughtfully and sparingly, always in service of connection rather than novelty.

The result is a portrait that feels personal, expressive, and recognisably them.

1. Place your order
2. Submit your reference photos and info after checkout
3. I create your original artwork
4. Your finished piece is carefully packaged and shipped

Once your commission is booked, I’ll send you a short, friendly form where you can tell me a little about your dog, their personality, any quirks you love, and anything you’d like included or avoided. You’ll also be able to upload reference photographs and share any details that feel important. This helps me create a portrait that feels considered, intuitive, and genuinely reflective of your dog.

For full details on the commission process, reference photos, and timelines, please see the Commission Process page.

Please allow 2–3 weeks for completion before dispatch.

Each portrait is painted entirely by hand by me in my UK studio using archival professional-grade, traditional artist materials on archival heavyweight, lightly textured watercolour paper.

I work with a combination of acrylic paint, oil pastel, and coloured pencil and inks, chosen for their depth, texture, and longevity.

Working from your reference photographs, I translate everything into a modern, expressive artwork that balances character with restraint, creating something thoughtful, stylish, and made to be treasured.

This listing is designed for one dog. For multiple dogs or more complex compositions, I recommend my Statement Portrait Commission, which allows for more space and compositional flexibility.

Framed commissions are professionally framed in a carefully selected contemporary frame chosen to complement the artwork and your home. Frame options will be discussed and approved with you before final production.
