Fine Art, Decorative Painting & Tassel Making
Fine art pet portraits are painted on top quality artist gessoboard using archival lightfast acylic paints. Your portrait will be created over many hours using layers of paint, washes and glazes and fine brush strokes to enhance the depth of the subject. Generally the background will be plain unless requested. An additional charge up to £30 will be added depending on the complexity of the required background/portrait size.
Supplied with Certificate of Authenticity and un-mounted so allowing you to choose your own frame. Contact me if you would like a price for mounting and framing.

Photographic Requirements for Fine Art Pet Portraits:
1. Photographic references must preferably be high resolution images. Clear, excellent quality, detailed, showing exact pet colour.
2. Photos should be taken in daylight (not indoor artificial light) to show realistic pet colouring.
3. Please do not take your pets photo too close as this distorts the pets features.
4. Please try to be at the same level as your pet for your photo.
5. The better the reference photograph, the more accurate the detail reproduced. It may not always be possible to obtain sharp photographs for a memorial commission but we can discuss the very best options to produce a special memory of your treasured pet.
