I specialize in creating vibrant, custom portraits of pets, companion and wildlife animals using soft pastels and charcoal. Each artwork is crafted to capture the unique spirit and personality of each animal, bringing their essence to life.
Whether it’s a memorial tribute with a personalized plaque, a joyful celebration of your beloved companion, I collaborate closely with you to transform your photos into timeless keepsakes. Let’s create a one-of-a-kind portrait that honors the charm, spirit, or wonder of the animals you cherish.
Each portrait I create is unique, custom-commissioned from your provided photo.
Memorial portraits include a personalized plaque in bronze, silver, or gold finish, creating a timeless tribute.

I am proud to use the finest materials, ensuring that each portrait is not only beautiful but also permanent, creating a timeless treasure for generations to enjoy.
Every portrait begins with your vision and one or more reference photos. I invite you to share your images and ideas—I’d be delighted to explore your vision and offer a personalised quote, with no obligation.
Most of my commissioned drawings are created on A3 archival paper (29.7 x 42 cm) and supplied framed to A2 size (42 x 59.4 cm). Each piece comes in a simple clean frame with acid free matting, ready to display — all at no additional cost.
This not only protects your artwork during shipping but also saves you the time and expense of having it framed yourself. If you’d prefer a custom frame to suit your space or style, I’m happy to help — just get in touch to discuss your specific needs!
The cost of a commissioned piece varies based on the complexity of the subject, the medium used, and the level of detail required. A black-and-white charcoal drawing will generally fall on the lower end of the scale, while full-colour soft pastel works that require more intricate work are priced accordingly.
Most commissions range from under $300 to under $600. Memorial portraits also include a custom memorial plaque. Each artwork is delivered ready to display — thoughtfully presented in a basic frame at no extra charge. If you have something specific in mind, I’d be happy to provide a personalised quote — just get in touch to discuss your vision!
