Our furred, finned and feathered family members are close to our hearts and while photographs are wonderful artifacts to have, there’s nothing quite like a custom portrait to truly capture all that we love about our pets.
Graphite is an excellent medium for capturing the subtleties of fur and favored fabric resting spots. When combined with other media such as colored pencil, it can give a greater sense of depth, texture and the way light showcases colors in over- and undercoats.
Watercolor is also a great medium for providing a sense of depth and perspective, especially when the subject matter is being placed in a fantastic environment. Color choices have a greater range of choice with portraits such as this, while still allowing details that make our pets unique and distinct to shine.
I would love to work with you to preserve your specific memories and the unique features of your family members, either living or departed. Please reach out via the email below for more information and let me know how I can help. I look forward to working with you!
