Ginny's Pastel Pet Portraits
Welcome
Why have a Pet Portrait?
Because our pets are family.Custom pet portraits are a meaningful, and everlasting memory of that moment captured when they made you laugh, or went crazy with excitement when you got home.Pets fill our lives with unconditional love and joy. Every glance or gentle purr is special. Which is why one of the loveliest things to do for yourself, a friend or family is to have a pet portrait created.Portraits aren’t just pictures; they’re pieces of art that capture your pet’s unique personality, and offer lasting emotional comfort and joy.Looking for the perfect gift for someone who adores their pet? Few gifts are as touching as a custom pet portrait.Losing a pet is one of the hardest things we have to deal with. It leaves an ache, in our hearts and a gap in our lives that is never really filled. A portrait can’t replace them, but it can offer comfort. It becomes a way to keep them close, to feel their presence in a tangible way.
(Q) What medium do I use?
(A) I use Clairefontaine's Pastelmat and a variety of Pastels.(Q) How long does it take before I get my portrait?
(A) Depending on size, details etc usually no more than a week to ten days. Having said that, when I am really busy I work on a waiting list, which means first come first served. To reserve yourself a place on the list a 30% non refundable deposit will secure your place, the balance to be paid when the portrait is complete. Should monthly payments be more convenient that is also an option.If you have a specific date in mind, please let me know.(Q) Do I get the original drawing?
(A) Yes you do. Originals are drawn on Clairefontaine's Pastelmat.
Not being satisfied with the quality of the 'First Print' I have removed that option for now.(Q)Would you do a bespoke size?
(A) Yes. My portraits are drawn from large sheets of pastelmat paper and all are cut by hand so if there isn’t a size listed on my website please contact me for a quote.(Q)When do I pay the balance?
(A) I will keep you posted with regular updates. Once you have received the final photograph of your portrait and are happy with the result the balance can then be paid. Once the balance has been paid your portrait will be packaged ready for collecting or posting.You can view examples of my work below.All portraits come framed unless otherwise requested.
