Commissioned Work
Each portrait I create is a celebration of a dog’s unique character, and I’m grateful to have brought so many beloved pets to life through both oil and coloured‑pencil commissions. Every piece begins with a story, a favourite photo, a special memory, a personality you want to cherish, and I work carefully to capture that in a way that feels true, heartfelt and full of life.
​
This gallery showcases some of the commissioned artworks I’ve created for wonderful owners who trusted me with their pets’ portraits. I hope these examples inspire you and give you a sense of what’s possible when we work together to create something personal and meaningful.
Commission a Portrait
I create bespoke oil and coloured‑pencil dog portraits, working from your favourite photographs to capture not just a likeness, but the personality and spirit that make your dog unique.
