Custom pet portrait commissions in the UK are a beautiful way to celebrate the animals we love, creating a timeless keepsake to treasure for years to come. From Northamptonshire studio, artist Sarah Webb hand draws bespoke pet portraits in pencil and pastel, working from your photographs to capture personality, expression and the little details that make your pet unique.
The first step is simply getting in touch. You can call me, Sarah on 07834 468131, email or purchase directly through the shop if you already know your preferred portrait size. If you’re unsure what would work best, I’m always happy to chat through ideas, timings and the type of portrait you have in mind.
Once you’ve chosen your portrait size, we’ll select the best reference photograph for me to work from. If you’re struggling to choose an image, I can guide you on what works best. I then begin carefully creating your hand-drawn portrait, keeping you updated throughout the process. Your finished artwork is securely packaged and delivered anywhere in the UK.
Portrait completion times vary depending on size and current workload, but as a guide please allow around 1 week for smaller portraits and 1–2 weeks for larger commissions. If your portrait is needed for a special occasion, do let me know and I’ll always do my best to help.
A clear photograph in natural light helps me create the most lifelike portrait possible. Don’t worry if you’re unsure—I’m happy to advise on selecting the perfect image or you can take a look at my best reference photo top tips.
