Thank you so much for visiting my shop, I'm so glad you are here!

A custom portrait is an original idea to remember your pet or give him a special place in your home! It is a unique gift for an animal lover for a special friend.

Simply send your best quality front-facing photos and I'll paint them into watercolour paintings.
My portraits are traditionally Hand-painted artwork using the very best materials. I use Winsor&Newton Professional Water Colour, Derwent Studio watercolour and pencils, Winsor&Newton ink and Fabriano watercolour cold press coton paper 300 g/m2 – 140 IB.


Framing - All my watercolor custom pet portraits are provided unmounted and unframed.
If you need the frame for Your portrait or should it be sent to someone as a gift ask for it in the comments.
If the portrait is a gift, I can send it directly to the recipient's address. In this regard, with a little extra, it is possible to order the gift box and ask for the addition of a greeting card (the text must be specified in the order note).

FOTO
I ask You, if it is possible, to provide a selection of some photos. The more detail in a photo the better your portrait will be. This is especially importrant for your pet's key features such as their eyes and nose. It is highly importrant that the photo is sharp and in focus.
Take the photo at eye level with your pet. The best angles are with your pet looking straight at you or with their head slightly tilted to one side looking past the camera.

The best LIGHTING for a perfect foto is natural light, preferably outdoors, but not in direct sunlight. Do not use flash. Direct sunlight and flash masks out a lot of detail, causes unnatural shadows and colours.

Sadly, I am unable to work from blurry or low resolution photos.
Before shipping you will be sent an email with a preview photo of the completed portrait, so that you can make any requests for small corrections and be able to proceed with the shipment.

It usually takes 7-14 business days to create your portrait, but sometimes it can be a little longer. The requested work will be shipped via express courier in Italy or international registered mail, for shipments abroad. Delivery times in Italy are 1 or 2 days, abroad 10 to 30 days, depending on the destination and the postal service.
