Heavy knife work in colors your animal has never been. Each plane of the face takes its own hue — turquoise along a cheek, cadmium red in an ear, gold across the forehead — with charcoal gray worked through to hold it all together.
The likeness doesn't come from the coat color here. It comes from the drawing: the shape of the head, the set of the ears, the eyes kept exactly as your photograph shows them.
Worth knowing before you order. This style deliberately throws out your pet's real coloring. A black dog will not be black. If what you want is their actual coat, their actual markings, their actual face as it is — choose Fine Art Realism or Impasto Oil Paint instead, and you'll be happier. Pop Art is for the person who wants the room to change when they walk into it.
The background is a decision, not a backdrop. Two broad fields of color, one warm and one cool, worked into each other at the edges so the boundary is painted rather than cut. I choose the accent color against your pet's coat and against the wall it's going to hang on.
And if there's a color you love, tell me and let's make it. I'll work with you on it. Send me a photo of the room, the paint chip, the sofa, the one blue you've always wanted on that wall — we'll build the piece around it. That part is free and it's my favorite part.
No two are alike, and that isn't a slogan — the color placement moves from piece to piece on purpose, so yours is the only one like it.
How it works
1. Order your size and framing.
2. Send me your photograph — one clear, well-lit picture is usually enough.
3. You see a proof within 24 hours.
4. Nothing is printed until you tell me it's right.
Choosing your photograph
Taken at your pet's eye level, in daylight if you can, close enough that their face fills a good part of the frame. Ears forward, a catchlight in the eye. If you're not sure, send it anyway and I'll tell you honestly whether it will work.
The print
Archival pigment inks on heavyweight fine art paper — acid-free, with inks rated to resist fading for over a hundred years. Giclée printing, one at a time.
Framed pieces come in a solid black or walnut moulding, dry mounted and backed, glazed with shatter-resistant acrylic rather than glass, and fitted with hanging wire. Ready to hang out of the box. Framed portraits ship in black unless you ask for walnut.
Every framed portrait includes a free 8x10 print. One for the wall at home, one for your desk at work.
10% of every sale goes to Senior Dogs and Friends Rescue. When an old dog loses their person, they're frightened and they have nobody. Your portrait helps one of them.
Your photograph is never sold or shared.
