About the work

A closer look.

Send me one clear photo of a pet you loved, and I paint them back in watercolor with a fine line. A portrait you can keep, made after they're gone or while they're still on your knee. It's the same work whether you come to me for a birthday piece or a pet memorial: one photo, one animal, nothing invented. The likeness comes from your photo, not from my guess, which is why a clear photo matters. If you're looking for a pet portrait drawn from a photograph rather than a filter, that is exactly what this is. The crooked ear stays crooked, the white patch stays where it is, the blanket stays the blanket they slept on. Before you pay the final, you get a free first look: a few lines on how I'd paint that animal and what in the photo I'd build the picture around. If my read is wrong, tell me and we stop there. What you get: one finished painting as a high-resolution file, yours to keep. One revision pass included. Five days from the photo, usually sooner.
