Pet Portrait Commissions
In the course of drawing and painting animals, I have been surprised to discover that each one has a unique inner self. To capture this is an artists' challenge which takes the final picture beyond a photographic representation. Mostly, I have been asked to portray animals which have died and so I work from photos. Even so, there are, as it were, jewels in the rock-face of even the most unpromising snaps. As animals are often less complex than humans, the finished drawings and paintings are usually less costly. Typically, an oil painting might be £150, sometimes less; other media around £75-£100. If you want a more complex background, we can negotiate a reasonable additional charge. Delivery £10.
