Growing up on a farm, I have sketched and painted pets as long as I can remember. Our pets are our joy -- they help us deal with the world around us.
Below are a few examples that I've painted over the years. My style has evolved ... I once painted pets in oils, but later used pastels combined with acrylics. Now I mostly paint pets with watercolors, sometimes adding pencil or pastels to soften the image. Most of my prices begin at $95 for 11"x14", or slightly smaller if the customer prefers a smaller image.

These are a few examples of hand-painted art of your pet, painted on recycled vintage dictionary pages. For each pet, I have selected a page that either describes the pet's breed or the pet's name. There is a special meaning hidden in each piece of art ~ unique to the pet owner. These paintings are hand sketched and painted with acrylic paint on the vintage paper ~ this is not a reproduction printed on a printer!

For the long hair chihuahua named 'Kovi', I have selected a page with the word 'extreme', printed at the bottom of the page. According to Google ~ Kovi means EXTREMES in fortune, health and
spirituality.
For the Boxer named Molly, I found a page that had Molly in the text.
mol·ly noun \ˈmä-lē\
by shortening from New Latin Mollienisia, former genus name, from Comte François North Mollien †1850 French statesman
First Known Use: circa 1933
Final dimensions are approximately 8" x 10" and will look great matted
and framed in either custom frames or standard frames from your local craft store.
Price for each painting,
(from your photo) is $95.
Pet portraits on vintage backgrounds, make unique gifts and are environmentally friendly. A one-of-a-kind piece of art for your home, plus they make great conversation pieces for that special someone.
