Commissions

Commissions

Portraits serve as a lasting tribute to your furry companion(s), preserving their memory long after they are gone. With my ability to capture the spirit and personality of your pet, it helps to keep their memory alive in a tangible form.

After taking a break to explore other creative projects, I am back to taking on commissions of your pets.
With my attention to detail and working from a high quality photo, I am able to capture the essence and personality of your beloved pet, I can create a portrait that you can treasure forever. Using only the highest quality, archival materials - with the correct care, your portrait will last a lifetime.

A lot of my commission work can be found here @underneathoctober

Mediums
Currently I offer portraits in four different mediums, something to suit everyone! You can choose from graphite, coloured pencil, soft pastel and gouache paint.

All mediums used are of the highest quality with the highest lightfast ratings, making sure they won’t fade over time. Different surfaces are used depending on what medium is selected, but all paper is archival to ensure its longevity and durability.

 

Gift Wrap
Each commissioned portrait comes fully mounted in a a double mount, ready to frame. As our mounts are made to measure by another small U.K. business, any additional needs, such as a specific mount colour can be requested at no additional cost. You will also receive a Certificate of Authenticity and care card with your portrait. Please take the time to read the care card to make sure your portrait will stand the test of time.

All portraits will be gift wrapped, so perfect to use as a gift. If you require a personalised message included with your portrait, that can be arranged.

Shipping
U.K. shipping is inclusive in the cost of the portrait and international shipping can be quoted upon request. All artwork is sent out fully protected with the correct labels to ensure they’re handled with care. I am a fan on reusing packaging where possible, so, for extra protection, I will use recycled packaging boxes on the outside.

Timeframe
Please be sure to book in, well in advance if you require your portrait for a specific date. For example, previously, for Christmas commissions, all slots have been booked before September.

Currently taking commissions for February 2025.
