Hand-drawn dog portraits from photos

Absolutely. Every portrait is created from your own photographs, whether you have a Cockapoo, Labrador, Border Collie, Working Cocker Spaniel, rescue dog or any other breed or cross-breed.

Yes. I regularly create portraits featuring two or more dogs together.

If your dogs appear in separate photographs, I can often combine reference images into a single composition where it works naturally.

If you're unsure what's possible, feel free to get in touch before ordering.

Many portraits begin with ordinary phone photographs, and memorial commissions are sometimes created from older images that can't be replaced.

The most important thing isn't having a perfect photograph—it's having one that captures your dog's expression and personality.

If you're unsure which image to use, take a look at my photo guide, or send me a few options and I'll happily help you choose.

Yes.

Many people commission portraits to remember a much-loved companion after they've passed away.

These portraits are approached with exactly the same care and attention as every other commission, with the focus always on creating artwork that feels warm, personal and recognisable.
