My dog Oliver and I
A watercolour painting in progress
Hello, I'm Ashley. I create custom pet portraits that capture the personality and spirit of your animal companion. Each of my watercolor pet portraits is hand-painted from your photos on premium cotton paper, creating a one-of-a-kind piece of art you'll treasure for years. Custom pet portraits make thoughtful gifts for birthdays, anniversaries, holidays, pet parents, and anyone whose furry friend holds a special place in their heart.Whether you're looking for dog portraits from photos, cat portraits from photos, a thoughtful personalized pet gift, or a meaningful pet memorial portrait, every commission is painted with care and attention to the details that make your pet special. Based in Edinburgh and shipping worldwide, I create hand-painted pet portraits for animal lovers across the globe.
12x9 Hand-Painted Colour Portraits
I create each 12x9 hand-painted colour portrait using artist-quality watercolours on premium 100% cotton paper, chosen for its exceptional durability and ability to hold luminous layers of colour.
Watercolor's transparent nature allows me to build depth gradually, capturing everything from subtle fur textures to bright, expressive markings. This traditional process gives every hand-painted pet portrait a softness, richness, and individuality that cannot be replicated by digital artwork.
6x9 Mini Hand-Painted Colour Portraits
All the richness you would get in a 12x9 just in a smaller 6x9 package!
Reviews
"We were absolutely delighted with the bespoke portrait of our beloved pet. The likeness was incredible! Ashley captured not just the appearance but the spirit of our dog. Ashley was fab to work with, so thoughtful and a quick turnaround. We couldn't be happier and will treasure this forever! Highly recommend! - Dean
"Ashley painted two absolutely wonderful portraits of my sister's dogs, and I couldn't be happier with the result! She was so sweet throughout the whole process - always keeping me updated, showing me each step, and making sure everything was just how I imagined. It was such a fun and easy experience, and the final portraits are honestly amazing. Thanks again for the portraits, they are so cool! - Almudena
"Thank you so much! I love it! - Luis
