Each custom painting is hand-painted with care, using your favourite photos and memories to capture and immortalise the warmth, personality and spirit of your companion.

Memorial Pet Portrait Questions

Here are a few quick answers to common questions about how to order a memorial pet portrait.  If there’s anything else you’d like to know, just ask — I’m always happy to help.

You can send as many photos as you like - they don't need to be perfect. For memorial commissions, people often choose the photo that feels the most like their pet, even if its a slightly older photo.


I'll help you decide which image will work best for the painting, and I can combine details from more than one photo if needed. The most important thing is that the portrait captures their personality.


The time depends on the size and the level of detail, but memorial portraits are usually completed within a week. 


However, its important to bear in mind that I might have a waiting list and so the earlier you get in touch, the better (especially around busy periods such as Christmas).


Yes - memorial portraits can be personalised however you wish. If there's a favourite toy, collar, or small detail you'd like included, just let me know. 


These subtle touches often make the portrait feel even more meaningful.
