I am a professional pet portrait artist. I specialise in handmade, life-like custom pet portraits - my mediums are pastels, graphite and coloured pencils. My artwork hangs on walls in pet lovers' homes all over the world as commissions are accepted internationally. I create realistic pet portraits that capture your furry or feathery friend's essence - their look and personality.

I am entirely self-taught and thoroughly enjoy drawing pets and wildlife. Drawing techniques are one thing - personally, I think it takes a lot more than that to create a pet portrait which touches the heart and which will be a lasting memory of your special friend. All of my portraits are drawn with love - every hair, every feather. I like to find out about my 'models' and 'connect' with them while I'm drawing. I have loved and lived with pets all my life and know how you feel about yours.

Your pet portrait is drawn from the photos you send me (by e-mail or by snailmail) so you can choose your favourite pose, that special 'look' that is so typcial of your pet and that you love the most. I am able to combine different photos in order to create that perfect portrait of your pet.

Pet Portraits also make for lovely and very special gifts - personalised gift vouchers are available.

I can't wait to draw your pet for you!
