Dog Portrait Custom Painting

$250

Celebrate and memorialize your animals by ordering a custom oil painted pet portrait based on photographs you provide. Each portrait is painted on gallery wrapped canvas. We will work together to accomplish exactly what you have in mind. After emailing me several images and specifying what is most important about your portrait I will begin to paint. I will keep you updated on a consistent basis through my blog and Facebook page, along with email so you can see your portrait come to life! So how do you purchase your portrait? Contact me here and then you will send me several high resolution pictures of your pet. If you need help emailing a high resolution picture please contact me and I will send instructions. Provide pictures of how you want to see your pet painted. I cannot change poses or attitude! If you would like me to provide a basic sketch of what the composition will look like please let me know so I will send it to you for approval before I begin to paint. I do my best to portray your pet how you would like to see them. The style you see here is a good example of what your portrait will look like. If you would like to add an additional animal to your portrait we can do that too!

What customers have said:

"AMAZING! CONSTANT COMMUNICATION! MADE SURE IT WAS PERFECT! I LOVE HER AND HER PRODUCTS!" - Jesse Brooke

"Very talented and kind seller! One of our beloved dogs recently passed away, and Evelyn recreated a perfect drawing of her (from the photo I emailed) and set inside a very nice key chain. Now I will also have something to remind me of a dog wherever I go. Thank you, Evelyn - you did an amazing job, and it was exactly the way I hoped it would be!" - Janie Smith

"I received the ornament with a beautiful pencil sketch of my Havanese, Virginia today. Evelyn did such a great job. It is a wonderful christmas gift for me and my two children!" - Amelia Miller

In 2010 I created the event theme and image, “A New Leash on Life,” for the annual Art of Rescue fund raising event held by Florida Boxer Rescue at the Tampa Florida Art Museum. I receive many requests from rescue organizations to donate custom pet portraits to be auctioned at fund raisers. Cocker Spaniel, Boxer, Golden Retriever, Greyhound, SPCA organizations and many more have all requested and been recipients of my donations.

My fine art is represented by Rhea Chiles’ Studio at Gulf and Pine on Anna Maria Island Florida, DeZion Gallery in Springdale Utah, and held in private collections throughout the US, Australia, France, Spain and the Netherlands. I have been awarded artist residencies at Zion National Park, Weir Farm National Historic Center, Brush Creek Foundation for the Arts, the Jentel Foundation, and Dorland Mountain Arts Colony. I also serve on the governing board of Myakka River State Park with a dedication to bring artists and nature together. WILD: Artists and Animals of Myakka, an annual fundraiser featuring top artists of the Sarasota area is curated by Evelyn.
