Watercolour Pet Portraits
Hand-painted from your photos

Hand-painted from your photos

My name is Jo, and I'm a UK-based pet portrait artist working from my home in Lincolnshire. I specialise in hand-painted watercolours that don't just look like your pet, but capture the unique character and personality that make them so special.
I work with pet owners across the UK and internationally, meaning you can order a one-of-a-kind, original artwork no matter where you live.
Exploring my website, you will discover pet portraits of dogs, cats, rabbits and more, each one carefully hand-painted, paying particular attention to the little details and features that make them unique.
Some portraits are commissioned as special gifts for pet owners, others as a beautiful memorial to a beloved companion no longer here, and some simply to celebrate the pet in your own home.
If you'd like to jump straight to portraits of a particular pet type, you can select from the galleries below.
Detailed dog portraits painted by hand and created from your favourite photos.
Custom cat portraits, carefully hand-painted to capture your pet's unique markings and personality.
Beautiful rabbit paintings in watercolour, as well as other small pet portraits.
"We've all been crying as it's so much like him. It's like he's here in the room. They both love it and we all just sat and stared at it for a while. Very captivating portrait, you have extraordinary talent."
