What I need from you

The most important thing I need is one very good, bright and clear photograph of your pet, but more is better. I prefer to work from a few photos at the time, because it gives me a better sense of how the subject really looks. So if you have more, please choose few of the best. Other suggestions (subjects personality, background colour etc.) are welcome.

Waiting time

It depends on size, technique and work load. For pastel and pencil it is a minimum of 2 weeks, for oils it is minimum of 4-10 months. I will send you a final scan of portrait for your verification. If you need the work to be finished as soon as possible, please let me know, I'll do my best. For really short deadlines (like 1 week or less) add 50% of total.

Payment

I require advanced payment of minimum 50% of final price before I begin. The balance you will pay after work is finished. You can also pay the total in advance. I accept payments via bank transfer or PayPal.

Delivery and packaging

I send my works via tracked post service. Every painting is protected by hard packaging against any damage. Drawings are unframed, oil paintings canvases are streched/unframed. Delivery takes from 4 up to 14 bussiness days, or more if overseas. P&P may change when framed. The cost of international shipping may change at the moment of placing order due to frequent price fluctuations.

Additional models

I charge less than half of base price for every next animal on one drawing/painting.

Digital paintings

Digital paintings are hand made using Wacom graphic tablet and natural media software. Printed on archival quality ink and fine art paper using professional Canon large format printer. Prints are free of charge!

Framing

When painting is finished, you can choose suitable moulding to frame it, or you can let me choose. Price of the frame depends on size and choosen model. Due to weight of the frame and need of securing the glass, shipping cost will change. Please take a look at examples of framed portraits here

Free samples

For limited time I offer free samples of my work. This is a cropped version of 30x40cm (12x16in) containing part of your pet's face. You can order only one free sample.
