PET PORTRAITS

Painting your furry family member

Whether you have a dog, cat, or a horse, I can capture their personality with acrylic paint.

WHAT I PAINT

Choose your animal.

DogsFrom the family lab to the farm kelpie, hand-painted dog portraits that capture the dog, not just the breed.

CatsThe hardest to get right, and my quiet favourite. Every whisker, every look, the personality you live with.

HorsesA new chapter for me. The same care, now for the horse you love. Early commissions welcome.

I take it seriously.

Most of the animals I paint have passed, or are not far from it. People trust me with the last way they will ever see their dog, their cat, their friend. I do not take that lightly.

I learn your animal before I paint them - their colours, their quirks, the look in their eyes - and I keep going until it is right. Until it is them.

Bear: The weight of getting it right

July 1st 2026Not every portrait carries the same weight. Some are joyful, some are gifts, and a few arrive carrying so much meaning that I feel the responsibility in my hands as I paint. Bear's was one of those.Read more

Monty, home again: a memorial dog portrait

July 1st 2026Monty was diagnosed as terminal while I was painting him. Partway through a commission that had started as a celebration, it quietly became a memorial, and that changed what the portrait needed toRead more

Moose: A Rottweiler x Blue heeler portrait worth the wait

July 1st 2026Moose's owner had been looking for years. Years, searching for someone who could paint her partners Rottweiler x Blue Heeler properly and do him justice. When she finally found me, the pressure was oRead more

Koda and Narla - Two Samoyeds, white on white

July 1st 2026White dogs are one of the most satisfying challenges I take on, and Koda and Narla were two of them at once. Both Samoyeds, all cloud-white fluff, painted together as a surprise for a husband'sRead more

Percy: a memorial portrait for a once-in-a- lifetime dog

July 1st 2026Some dogs are once in a lifetime. Percy was one of those - a heart dog, the kind whose absence leaves a room a little quieter. By the time his family came to me, Percy had already passed, and I knewRead more

Leo: The Oriental Siamese and a request from the other side of the world

July 1st 2026Leo found me from the other side of the world. A true Siamese, full of personality and confidence, and by all accounts a great talker - his family requested his portrait from the UK for a mum missingRead more
