Welcome to my pet portrait page where I breathe life into our beloved companions using pencil, colour, and graphite.

With every stroke and hue, I immortalise the glint in their eyes and the curl of their tail, capturing their essence for eternity. These illustrations transcend art; they’re a heartfelt homage to the bond we share with our pets. I invite you to celebrate your furry friends by exploring my gallery, allowing my creations to grace your space and encapsulate your pet’s presence in exquisite detail.

Crafting these timeless portraits is a privilege, honouring the enduring joy and love they bring into our lives.

Your drawing arrived yesterday but I couldn’t open it because Steve was here on days off!  He’s been called in to cover a shift today so I have just managed to open it and your drawing is beautiful.  I’m so glad you posted on Yammer, and I’m really excited to give it to him for his birthday tomorrow!
