MINI PET PORTRAIT, Small Pet Portrait, Tiny Pet Portrait, Miniature Pet Portrait, Mini Dog Portrait, 4"x4".
 
Custom pet portraits make wonderful gifts for pet lovers and lasting memorials. 
All portraits are hand painted in premium oil paint on stretched canvas.
A successful portrait is not just a copy of what the subject looks like, but it is also a lasting reflection of the subject's character and personality (whether human or animal). An oil painting can last for hundreds of years, so when you commission an oil painting you really are getting a durable lasting reflection of your pet for years to come.
 
In my pet portraits I learn as much as I can about your pet so that the portrait can show not just how adorably lovable he or she is but also a deeper imprint of his/her character. I ask for a minimum of 3 photos to get a good idea of what your pet looks like and see something of his/her expressions and character. Once I have a great photo to use for reference I can complete the painting in 1-3 weeks.

All of my portraits are done with premium quality oil paint on canvas. I am happy to add a message, date or name on the back as well. 
Once you make your purchase I need some information about your pet and how you would like your painting. 
Here is what I need to know to begin: 
1. Photos (at least 3-4)
2. Colors (background and overall preferences)
3. Special notes and requests
4. Subjects name and notes on personality
Please send this information to me via Etsy conversation along with any questions.
*This listing is for an 4"x4" portrait of one pet on a 1.5" deep stretched canvas. These portraits are head and shoulders on plain background. Special requests welcome.
