FAQ's and Answers
What is it made of ?
My portraits are made of a wide variety of materials based on size and style:
Cartoon: Water-based black ink, alcohol markers, colored pencils, and acrylic ink markers on acid-free card stock.
Rainbow and Mixed Media: High-quality, high light-fast rated watercolors on acid-free 100% cotton watercolor paper, Gouache, Oil-based colored pencils, and acrylic ink pens.
Black and White Digital Portraits:
Hand drawn on a digital drawing app called Procreate on an iPad. Printed in-house on an Epson eco tank printer and high-quality paper. It's not as light-fast, but easily reprintable if ever needed. Feel free to ask for a digital copy as well.
I don't have a picture of all of my pets together, can I still get them painted together?
I do not need all of your pets to be in a single photo in order to paint them all together! Having your two pets sit sid eby side next to each other in a painting does require photos of them sitting or laying, but they do not have to be photographed together! Any two facial photos can be painted side by side no matter what!
If you ever need tips on which photos work best, please feel free to email me!
I am also working on adding an example photo section shortly!
Can I get prints made?
Does my painting come framed?
No, your portrait comes packed flat with a rigid paper backing and a plastic sleeve for protection. We can also mat the painting upon request to help in the framing and protection of your artwork. We also offer gift wrapping if you intend to gift your artwork right away!
We do not provide custom framing services, however, we are happy to purchase a ready-made frame and frame your artwork for an additional fee! Choose from a small selection we offer, or buy your own and bring it to us to frame upon pick up! We DO NOT ship frames - this is an in-person pick-up option only.
​
Our artwork comes in only Ready Made Frame sizes from our S, M, and L! We do this to offer the widest variety of options and affordability for your framing needs! Frames can be found easily at places like Dollar Tree or Walmart, to TJ-Max or Target, and craft stores like Micheal's and Hobby Lobby. This allows you to control how much you spend on your frame! You can even take our paintings to custom frame makers if you please! Feel free to ask about suggested frame or matting colors, we are always happy to lend a creative eye!
Can you paint pets and people togeather?
Yes! We can paint pets and people together! Please refer to our size guide for how many people and pets we can fit on a certain sized painting! We also like to acknowledge that painting people is more complex than our furry friends, and our prices increase to reflect that! Please reach out for a quote!
Yes! We are working on providing all new clients with a free 8 by 10 print of your artwork with purchase!
We also offer additional prints at just $10 in sizes 8 by 10 and smaller.
We also offer larger prints at an additional cost based on size.
​
As a note for first-time commissioners. Artists retain the right to reprint or use any images or copies of the painting they might make. When buying a custom painting, you are only purchasing the physical original, you do not have the right to reprint my artwork or redistribute it. Any reprinting of my artwork without clearly documented consent and in some cases payment is strictly prohibited. You do have the opportunity to buy exclusive rights to a painting within reason.
Please always feel free to reach out with any questions you might have on artistic copyright - I can point you in the right direction of helpful resources.
Can I get my pet painted on something other than paper?
Yes! We are working on providing a more clearly defined price points and style for our custom hand-painted items: so far we have worked on a huge variety of things, such as:
canvas van shoes, canvas tote bags, cotton pouches, canvases, wood slices, clay trinket trays, gun magazines, hats, glass bottles, and mirrors.
​
Please always feel free to reach out with inquiries or if you ever have any questions! I thrive on working on unique projects and can't wait to hear about yours! If I can't help you, there is a good chance I know someone who can!
