I work from your photos, so even if you're not local I can still create you an amazing cat painting in watercolours. Cats have such such unique features - it's really important to provide a clear and well lit reference photo.
From the unique colour of their eyes to the texture and changing direction of their fur, I hand-paint the details that make your cat truly one-of-a-kind.
Each portrait is carefully created in Lincolnshire using high-quality watercolour paints & paper for lasting vibrancy.
Your portrait is securely packaged to arrive safely. I deliver across the UK & internationally - just contact me for an up-to-date quote if ordering from abroad.
Here are a few quick answers to common questions about my watercolour cat portraits. If there’s anything else you’d like to know, just ask — I’m always happy to help.
Absolutely! Cats are so beautiful and it's such a pleasure capturing different breeds in my watercolour cat portraits. From stripey Tabby Cats to majestic Maine Coons, I hand-paint each cat portrait with care to capture the breeds unique features.
Yes, of course! I can combine multiple cats into a single painting, even if they’re not in the same photo. I’ll make sure they look natural together while keeping each cat’s personality.
Yes, I can. Cats are incredibly expressive in their poses, so a full body portrait is a wonderful way to capture their personality. Just send me a clear photo of their full pose and I'll create a beautiful watercolour painting for you.
Absolutely. I often create memorial portraits for pets who are no longer with us. It's a lovely way to remember your pet, celebrate their life and keep their presence close. You're welcome to send me any photos you have, and I'll gently guide you through choosing the one that will work best.
