Mediums and Techniques
I specialise in creating dog portraits in two mediums: acrylic on board and oil on canvas. Your choice of medium depends on the desired effect. Acrylics lend themselves well to detailed, precise renderings, while oils offer a softer, more painterly aesthetic. The decision is often influenced by factors such as breed characteristics and desired size.

Photo Quality
To ensure the best possible outcome, I recommend providing a high-quality photo of your pet. The clarity of the image directly impact the final result, allowing for more intricate and larger-scale paintings. If you're unsure about selecting the right photo or lack one of suitable quality, I offer the option of visiting you. This allows me to meet your pet, capture reference photos, and understand their unique personality to translate it onto canvas accurately.

Process
Once you've provided a photo, I'll offer recommendations regarding medium, size, background, and other details. Upon your selection, a 50% prepayment secures your commission. The average completion time is 2-4 weeks. If you have a specific date in mind, expedited services are available for an additional fee.
