Pet Portraits
I get to paint some gorgeous pets! These are some of my favourites and you will find a few popular breeds available to buy in the Fine Art Prints pages too.
If you would like to commission a watercolour painting of your own furry, feathery or even scaly friends, then do get in touch, I will need some good close-up photos and a bit of info from you, then you can leave the rest to me. There is always a waiting list though so if it's for a gift then give me plenty of notice and bare in mind that at Christmas I am normally fully booked by the end of October!
Pet portrait prices 2023
My prices and options are as follows:
- A4 painting single pet £125.
- A3 painting single pet £165.
- A3 painting 2 pets £250.
- A3+ painting 3 pets £350.
- A2+ painting 4 pets £425.
The above prices are for an unmounted painting supplied with a card backing. Window mounts can be supplied at a small extra cost if required and cut to fit the frame size of your choice, please arrange with me when booking. Please note I no longer supply frames unless local collection is arranged.
A deposit is required to secure a place in the book, I work on a first come first serve basis but if there is a time scale such as a birthday to work towards then let me know and I'll try to complete it in time.
When ordering pet portraits, please put some thought into the photos you send to me. Bear in mind that I can only see what is visible in the photo and I don't know your pet. I will need close-up images taken in good, preferably natural light, showing details such as eyes and nose in sharp focus. Take the photos from your pet's level, not from above as this can cause awkward foreshortening. The photos should be high-resolution if possible and sent full size by email or through www.wetransfer.com to sandimower@gekkoart.uk Please avoid screenshots or copying images from social media sites as they will be compressed. Feel free to send as many photos as you like so that I have plenty of choices and various views to work with.
