Commission a Custom Pet Portrait

Pets are family—plain and simple. They’re our four-legged kids, our tail-wagging companions, our fur babies, and snuggle bugs. As a proud pet parent myself (currently to two dogs and one cat), I understand just how deep that bond runs.

They give us their whole hearts with unconditional love. And yet, one of life’s hardest truths is how short their time with us truly is. Eventually, we have to keep going without them—but they never leave our hearts.

That’s why I create art that honors the love we share with our pets. Whether they’re still by your side or forever in your memory, your companion’s spirit deserves to be celebrated with care and tenderness. Whether you’re remembering a faithful friend, celebrating a playful spirit, or surprising someone who recently lost a member of their family — a custom portrait is a timeless way to say, “You’ll always have a place in my heart.”

What I Offer

Pet Portrait Memorial Hanging

There are many ways to honor your “fur kids,” from traditional keepsakes to more playful, modern options. Together, we’ll choose what best reflects your pet’s personality and your style.

Available options include:

  • Oil paintings
  • Colored pencil drawings
  • Holiday ornaments
  • Memorial plaques
  • And more-— If you have an idea not listed here, I’d love to collaborate with you
Pet Portrait Christmas Ornaments

Each paw-trait is lovingly handcrafted to capture not just your pet’s likeness, but the spark and soul that made them so special.

Built to Last

All artwork is created with professional, archival materials. I take great care in selecting surfaces that are acid-free to prevent discoloration or deterioration over time. The paints and pencils I use are lightfast, ensuring the colors remain as vivid and true as the day your piece is finished. Your portrait is made to last for generations, just like the love behind it.
