Custom Hand-Painted Pet Portrait From Photo

Custom Hand-Painted Pet Portrait From Photo (6" x 6")

Turn your favorite photo into a one-of-a-kind piece of art you can hold in your hands forever.

This is a real, hand-painted mini pet portrait — not a digital illustration, and not a printed “watercolor look.” I paint each piece from scratch using professional Winsor & Newton watercolors, plus gouache and acrylic details, on premium Canson watercolor paper.

Every portrait is individually sketched and painted to capture what makes your pet them: their expression, their energy, their little quirks, their spirit.

What you’re getting

• One original hand-painted pet portrait

• Size: 6" x 6"

• Medium: watercolor + gouache + acrylic accents

• Paper: premium Canson watercolor paper

• Painted from your photo of dogs, cats, birds, horses, bunnies, hamsters, chickens, llamas — truly any beloved companion

Real hand-painted art (the difference is real)

If you’ve been shopping around, you’ve probably noticed a lot of “watercolor portraits” are actually digital files or prints. Here’s how you can tell this one is the real thing:

• True watercolor has natural blooms, texture, and visible brushstrokes

• The paper has a soft matte surface (not the flat shine of a print)

• Professional watercolor paint is made to last and won’t fade like typical print inks

Perfect for

• A meaningful gift for pet lovers

• Memorial portraits

• A small piece of original art for your home

• Celebrating a new pet or “gotcha day”

About the artist

I’m a 23-year-old emerging artist taking a limited number of commissions, and I put a lot of care into every single portrait. Your pet isn’t just another order — they’re someone you love, and I treat it that way.

To order: upload your photo (or send it after purchase), and I’ll take it from there.
