People & pet portraits

Hand drawn People & Pet Portraits are a timeless and elegant representation of a special person and make a great gift for birthdays, weddings, retirement, or to immortalize a loved one who passed. As a professional artist, I strive to bring happiness to people’s lives by creating an original piece that celebrates your loved one’s life.

What's Required

I require reference photos to work from to complete the portrait commission and as I will do my best to replicate the image provided. The better the quality of the reference photo the better the outcome of my work but I understand that good-quality photos are not always an option due to pets/people passing on.

Don't have just one picture?

If you have multiple pictures you want to combine into one portrait I can do that for you using Photoshop. Just make sure no parts of the photo are cropped off.



People & Pet Portraits can be ordered and shipped to anywhere in the world. I accept all forms of online payments like Paypal, Zelle, Cash App, Venmo and Apple Pay. Frames are not included in the price but can be ordered and shipped for an additional charge.


Are you ready to capture the beauty of your loved ones on canvas? Reach out to me via email or visit my Etsy shop to embark on an artistic journey that will touch your heart and adorn your walls with cherished memories. Let's create something truly extraordinary!
