Custom Made Pet Portraits
Pet Portrait painting or drawing made with attention to detail and lots of love. I will help you to capture and enhance the beauty and character of the subject, turning it into a memorable piece of art that you can proudly display in your home or that makes a thoughtful, one of a kind gift for someone special.
If you would like to book a pet portrait commission there is availability throughout the year but this is dependent upon how quickly bookings fill up! This means that sometimes requests may be added to a wait list. Take a look at the gallery images below for examples of previous works and to decide if I’m the right artist for you. Any Questions about the process- don’t hesitate to get in touch below!
How To order
Ordering your custom portrait couldn’t be simpler. For an informal chat to discuss your requirements just message me at hello@rebeccafindlay.com .I will be more than happy to go through the options with you and help you decide what best suits your needs
Once confirmed, I let you know the exact price for your work. Please be aware that the prices included below are for a standard one subject and small amount of background. Any extras may take more time which will be reflected in the price. As a guide, extra subjects are £50 per subject and a full background is also priced at £50. I will always let you know the price of any extras upfront via email so that you are fully informed before your purchase.
You will need to supply a good, clear photograph (you can send more than one) of the subject that you wish to be drawn. This can be sent to me via email. I am more than happy to help you select and advise on what would work best in order to get the best possible result for you.
Please note: I will not begin work on your custom artwork until I have contacted you first via e-mail to clarify details, price and until you are happy. I realise that it can be daunting ordering art from the internet, especially if you do not know the artist but I can assure you that your portrait will be in experienced hands! I understand just how much your pets are loved and are a part of your family and pride myself on offering a unique and personal experience where your satisfaction is at the forefront of what I do.

Turnaround Times
Depending on how many projects I am currently working on, turnaround times can vary, but typically you should allow for 4-8 weeks.

All works are securely packaged using sturdy materials- either a cardboard tube or box – which contains padding so that your artwork arrives in perfect condition. Additionally, your artwork will come in an archival acid free sleeve and with Care and Thank you notes. You can see examples of the packaging used in the Commission Images above. I use recycled and recyclable packaging where possible.

Sketches
I also offer a sketch option which is fantastic value and does not compromise on quality. These sketches are made using artist quality materials but they are produced in a faster time, still capturing your pets likeness/ personality but enabling me to keep the price competitive. All portraits include FSC certified acid free mountboard and bevel cut aperture. Mount is an off white textured board and fits a standard size 10 x 8” frame. Perfect for gifting!
As with the larger commissions, it helps if you have a clear, well- lit photo of your pet for me to work from. Just a £5 deposit required to secure your portrait. UK Postage is included in the price but overseas postage will be extra.
Price list:
To fit 8 x 10” frame
- £45 (Larger sizes available upon request)
