Highlights

Choose Artwork by AK to create a special keepsake that will last a lifetime. All portraits are hand-drawn (no AI is used) by me the artist to bring the unique personality and features of your pet to life.

🐾 A digital portrait order comes with:

• One 8.5x11 professional giclee print
• One high resolution .png file (transparent background)
• One low resolution .jpg file (white background, perfect for mobile/social)
• The option to purchase matching greeting cards and stickers is available. The standard card size is A2 (4"x5") and comes with Kraft envelopes. Minimum sticker size will be between is 3 and 3.5-inches, depending on design.

🐾 What is needed from you:

1-3 quality (i.e., not blurry or from far away) photos of your pet(s). I will typically replicate a facial expression and pose from one or a combination of these photos. I will also need the name, age, and gender of the pet(s), plus any extra details about physical or personality traits that are not obvious from their photos.

🐾 A note about prints:
An 8"x10" image is best in a 11"x14" frame with an 8"x10" mat opening

Your custom artwork can also be made available on other items (shirts, mugs, etc.) at the standard price for those items and may be purchased separately. Please contact me to make arrangements, if needed.

★ IMPORTANT TIME FRAMES ★
The average turn-around time for a portrait is about 1 week from start to finish. This is dependent on how promptly you provide the requested image(s) and respond to draft approvals/changes.
*Note: Adding stickers to your order will extend the above time by one week.

★ CUSTOM ILLUSTRATION PROCESS ★

STEP 1: Purchase this custom listing

STEP 2: Message me with the HIGH-QUALITY reference image(s) of your dog(s). The better your photos are, the faster the process will go and the better the results! Also, please include any details that you want me to consider for your portrait: facial expressions, favorite colors, bandanna vs. collar, favorite ball, etc.

STEP 3: You will receive a copy of your sketched portrait outline within 2 business days, for your review and approval. This is when we confirm the composition and likeness. It is very important that you are happy with the sketch at this point before I commit it to color! My turn-around to apply any requested changes to the outline is 1-2 business days.

STEP 4: Once we agree on the outline, I will bring your custom drawing to life with color and send you the final image, generally within 2-3 business days (per pet), before it goes to print and ships. (Please see below if you order stickers)

STEP 5:
It takes 1-2 business days to prepare your print for shipment. Adding stickers or other items to your order will extend the above time by one week.

★ SHIPPING INFO ★
Your custom order is shipped FREE OF CHARGE via USPS
Please see our Shop Policies page for further details.

★ 100% CUSTOMER SATISFACTION IS MY GOAL! ★
Once you've confirmed your draft, any changes beyond Step 3 will only be made at an additional cost to the buyer. I assure you I will do everything I can and over-communicate with you so that doesn't happen!

I had a custom portrait of my heeler illustrated by ArtworkbyAK and a family member loved it so much that I immediately ordered a custom portrait of her German spitz as a gift. Angela knocked it out of the park, perfectly capturing my family member's dog's personality and selecting a pose that really highlighted him. The print and add ons were perfect, made with super high quality materials.

I have been a fan of ArtworkbyAK's cattle dog themed items for years now, so I was excited to get a chance to have a custom illustration of my cattle dog! The process was super easy and took about a week from providing reference photos to receiving a final proof (having reviewed a sketch in the interim). Angela was super responsive and the artwork met or exceeded the standard of work on her page. The actual print, stickers, and cards are made on high quality materials, well packaged to protect them in the post, and were shipped in a timely manner. The print was even nicer than I had hoped! Great experience, great product, great artist--I highly recommend ArtworkbyAK if you are hoping for a custom illustration of your heeler!

I came across Angela on Instagram quite a while back and always wanted her to do a custom drawing of my Heeler. Not only did the drawing exceed expectations, but she was an absolute pleasure to work with every step of the way. I can’t recommend her enough. Thank you Angela, I am so excited to frame the print and use my stickers!
