Order Instructions:

Please choose the size painting you would like along with whether or not it should be backed, strung and framed as I offer. Also tell me if more than one animal will be in the composition.

To begin your painting I require bright, clear, individual photos that will show the pet in its entirety and in a pose and position that lends itself to creating a portrait. Think dog/cat level, on your knees shots, unless you already have a composition that you would like to use for the painting. I prefer these to be printed out as good quality hard copies on glossy stock and mailed to me snail-mail along with being sent as attachments in emails in a non-threatening -easy to use size- no larger than 200k or so. (I've had problems with REALLY HUGE pictures being sent that crash my inbox… LOL!)

Tell me something about you or the owner and the pet along with any idiosyncratic info that may help me create something uniquely personal. Silly things are good-don’t discount them. Sometimes that will spark a theme to work around. Perhaps you already have some ideas or a realized composition in the picture(s) you send me. Feel free to bring this to my attention.  This way I can place the pet in an environment and or situation that will be pleasing and personalized for you and your family or recipient. Get the idea?

Upon receipt of the pictures I will contact you and we will go over everything and decide on which photo to use. When you are satisfied and we have finalized everything, choose your payment option. I like to receive a 50% deposit upon accepting a commission. The balance and shipping charges are payable upon completion and prior to mailing. You will be sent a picture of the finished piece. I accept Personal Checks, Money Orders and Paypal.

Any questions please contact me.

Guarantee

If you are not completely satisfied with the quality and value of my original painting of your pet, I will gladly refund your payment*
