The cost of the commission depends on several elements such as which medium you like, what size artwork you are happy with and how many pets you would like in your portrait.
I usually choose to create a portrait with a plain or soft blurred background as it ensures your pet is the main focus of the drawing or painting. However, should you want a more scenic background I will be happy to discuss this with you.
Below you will find a guide of the sizes and prices for the different medium I use. These prices are based on popular portrait sizes. I am happy to discuss square formats or larger sizes where you may want a detailed scenic background.
