Custom Dog Portraits

By Diane Speakman

We offer a variety of sizes with the option of coming framed or unframed.

All portrait paintings are painted with oils on linen canvas panels, making framing easier.

If you prefer a stretched canvas without a frame, or a size larger than 9”x12”, just let us know! We are more than happy to work with you.

Typical turn around time is 3-4 weeks depending on current projects. Keep in mind oil paint takes a while to set up before framing.

TIPS FOR GOOD PHOTOS

Keep in mind:

Lighting: Avoid dark images and backlit scenes.

Composition: Full body photos are fine, but for most dogs, a classic portrait is the best representation (the Aussie on the right is a good example). Please, no action shots.

Perspective: Do not take photos looking down at your dog. Get down on your dogs level and get that eye to eye perspective.
