Commission Your Own Custom Portrait in 5 Easy Steps!
Our favorite memories, people, and things are one of a kind - and store-bought art doesn't often capture the look and feel they deserve. Commissioning a 100% custom portrait gives the art in your home deeper meaning and is often nostalgic.
You also have a voice in the process - you can share your favorite features, color preferences, and more to ensure the finished product encompasses all the love and beauty you envisioned.
Here's how it works:
Step 1 - Photo
The commissioning process starts with you sending a clear, high-quality photo (or multiple) via email. Make sure the photo is detailed, and any features you wish to highlight (i.e. eyes or expressions) are prominent.
Please note: Photos cannot be combined or drastically altered. Backgrounds are kept simple and unobtrusive.
Step 2 - Order Details
Choose a portrait size, share any special requests, and specify whether or not you need the commission for a specific date. Custom portraits are usually completed within three (3) weeks, although this can vary. Please note if shipping will be required.*
Step 3 - Deposit
A $50 deposit is required to secure your commission. Payments can be made via Credit Card, Paypal, Venmo, check, or cash (if local), and the balance is paid upon completion.
Step 4 - Completion
A photograph will be sent via email once your pet portrait is complete to ensure you are happy with it.
Step 5 - Delivery
Once you are satisfied with your custom painting and the remaining balance has been paid, shipping* or pick-up/delivery will be arranged. All artwork is securely packaged and fully protected in transit.
*Shipping is included. Cost will cover ground delivery and insurance.
Pricing
