So, you are thinking of ordering a custom portrait from your photographs? Read the ordering information about how I'm working closely with you from the beginning to the end of the process.

It is important for you to know exactly what I need from you as my client and what you can expect from my expertise and offers. If you have any kind of questions, just drop me an email.

Photographs
(see photo tips)

All my portraits are created from photographs. If you have several high quality photos of each individual that you will have portrayed, don' hesitate to send them all, because then we will have more to choose from. I always work from a single photograph but I'm able to look for colors and details from your other photos as well. Be sure to send a photo of the pet that represents her/his coloring, character and personality. As I have only your photograph and you to guide me through the creating process it is very important that I have right photos as reference.



My portraits are highly detailed and I go for likeness, therefore I need big photographs from you. I prefer digital photos of the original size (not resized) but if you have only paper photographs I want you to send them to my home address (given by email). I will then scan the photo in a size I need to work from. Of course your photos will be returned to you along with the completed portrait. If your photographs aren't good enough they will be returned right away.



If you would like to commission a portrait with extra background or combination portraits, let me know about your wishes and I will find nice photos for you to choose from.

What can you order?

I'm painting primary paintings and drawings of pets. Most portraits are of head and part of the neck but full body are available for a little extra fee. If you have any other ideas let me know and I will see what I can do for you.

I'm creating artwork with colored pencils, graphite pencils and watercolors. (If you have have other wishes let let me know.)If you have no choice lets talk about it.
