How to Commission a Portrait

I specialize in custom pet portraits and love to create artwork that captures the personality of each animal using the highest of quality materials. 

​

STEP 1 Follow the link below to fill out the wait list form. This will ask you for basic contact details, your portrait size/type (if unsure you can decided later) and you can even upload your pet's photos. Alternatively you can contact me via email or social media to get started.​

​

STEP 2 I will see your submission and contact you shortly. Here I will confirm any details, layouts or special requests as well as estimated finish times and price.

​

STEP 3 I am now ready to start your portrait! I will be in touch with photos of the portrait when it is in it's final stages to make sure you are happy with it. Once completed, portraits can be posted anywhere in Australia or picked up from Roseworthy SA.

FAQ

How long does it take for a portrait to be completed?

Each portrait takes between 1 - 6 weeks for completion depending on size and my wait list. If you need a portrait by a specific date I am often able to shuffle things around to make it work.

​

What sort of photos do you need for a portrait?

Photos that clearly show facial features and colour are ideal. I always recommend sending multiple photos if possible.  I understand the perfect photo is not always possible so feel free to just send what you have and I will work with it. 

 

Can you post portraits?  

Yes I can, All portraits are carefully packed and posted. Pick up is also available at Roseworthy SA.
