Commissions
I create bespoke pet and wildlife portraits on a commission basis for clients worldwide. I create highly detailed, colourful portraits using the highest quality, archival materials. I specialise in bringing the soul of each animal to life on paper using coloured pencils.

How to commission a pet portrait
1) Choose the type and size of pet portrait you would like from the price guide. I can recommend what will work well based on your reference photos.
2) Provide at least one good quality reference photo of your pet. A good quality headshot taken at eye level in natural daylight is recommended.
3) Use the contact form to book in your portrait. If you require the portrait for a specific date it is recommended to do this well in advance as I often operate a waiting list. Once the booking has been secured the composition is agreed based on your reference photos.
4) To secure your booking, I will send an invoice for a 40% non-refundable deposit to your email address. Once the payment has been made, the commission is booked in for you and the start date will be confirmed.
5) I will keep you up to date with the drawing process and will then send you a photo of the finished portrait. The remaining balance is due once the portrait is complete. Framing is available as an optional extra.
6) Once payment is received the portrait will be shipped in a gift box with a certificate of authenticity via Royal Mail Special Delivery (UK).
For international delivery there will be an additional charge for postage confirmed at the time of booking. There may be an additional custom charge to your parcel once it arrives, which you will be required to cover.
* There are currently no orders accepted from NI or EU countries.

How to commission a wildlife portrait
Commission a portrait of your favourite bird or animal. The process is the same as for pet portraits, but don’t worry if you don’t have your own reference photos, as I can help source appropriate references to come up with your ideal portrait. Fill in the contact form to discuss your ideas.

Personal touches
At an additional cost, you may wish to add a background, your pet’s favourite toy, or personalise the collar. I am happy to discuss any ideas you have to bring a personal touch to your portrait.
