custom architecture, Home & pet portraits
Custom hand-drawn illustrations make great gifts!
Pet Portraits are more than just a likeness. A pet portrait should capture the subject's uniqueness and personality. Sometimes it is as subtle as the angle at which you are viewing it. Sometimes it is the reflected colours that create a mood. The most important feature to me is the eyes. I like the sense of communication that is created when the viewer makes eye contact with the furry friend.
- your home
- your pet
- your business

- Some features can be added, omitted or adjusted - see samples.
How it works:
- You send me high-resolution reference photos of the home, views from straight on and/or various angles
- I like to know the address so I can use google street view and get a sense of the neighbourhood
- If you don't have a high-resolution reference, I can visit (if property is in London, ON) and take photo references (small fee)
- I will respond with a timeframe, depending on the complexity of the painting. Average time is 3-4 weeks
- Digital image of finished painting will be emailed to you before it's picked up or mailed to you
- Payment in full is due upon completion
