The holiday season is all about showing love and appreciation to those who mean the most to us. When it comes to finding a gift that’s both personal and heartfelt, a custom pet portrait is hard to beat. It’s a unique way to celebrate the bond between your loved one and their furry friend, whether they’re still by your side or fondly remembered.
A LASTING TRIBUTE TO A BELOVED PET
Our pets are more than just animals—they’re family members who bring joy, comfort, and companionship into our lives. A custom pet portrait can be a beautiful tribute to a pet who’s no longer with us, capturing their spirit and keeping their memory alive. Imagine surprising your partner or a parent with a hand-drawn portrait of a cherished dog or cat that’s passed away. It’s a gift that offers both comfort and a sense of connection, allowing them to see their beloved pet every day, keeping those happy memories alive.
CELEBRATING THE JOY OF A PET
A portrait of your pet is a wonderful way to celebrate the joy they bring into your home. Perhaps you have a rescue cat who after years of being timid has finally learnt to trust again. Or a loyal dog who follows your loved one everywhere and is their constant companion. Capturing their personality in a piece of art is a wonderful way to honour the happiness they bring, and the ways they enrich family life. It’s a gift that speaks volumes about the bond they share with you and your loved one, making it a truly personal present.
“Naomi did a portrait of my lovely flat coated retriever as a gift for my husband. What can I say, I’m speechless! It’s amazing!! The likeness and detail are exceptional, even the framers said they had never seen anything like it! Naomi is so professional in every aspect of the transaction and her communication is fantastic, she likes to know as much as possible about the pet that she is drawing so that she can capture their personality and she does that perfectly! The finished product is delivered exactly in the time scale that is quoted and arrives beautifully and safely packaged with clear instructions of how to care for it! I can’t recommend Naomi enough. We now have the most beautiful picture of our gorgeous dog to treasure forever!” – Louise B.
A SIMPLE STRESS-FREE GIFT
Commissioning a portrait of your pet is a simple process that’s tailored to make your experience enjoyable and stress-free. It all starts with you sending me a few photos of your pet. I encourage you to share stories or little quirks about their personality—these details help me capture their true essence in the portrait.
One of the best parts of gifting a pet portrait is the element of surprise. If you’re planning this as a special Christmas gift, I’ll work closely with you to ensure that everything remains a secret until the big day. From discreet communications to arranging the perfect timing for delivery, I’m here to help make sure your surprise goes off without a hitch.
“We have just received 2 beautiful portraits of our 2 dogs from our son and daughter as belated Christmas presents. They are simply stunning made all the more poignant as we lost our Lottie just before Christmas. Naomi has made them both come to life and I could not be more thrilled. Thank you so much, they will be treasured forever.” – Caroline T.
