Description
Pet portraits are available in two sizes, 8″ by 10″ (sometimes 8.5″ by 11″) or 11″ by 14″. Pet portraits, as commission pieces are always originals, not prints. To paint a good portrait I need the best pictures you can provide of the pet. Preferrably with good posing, good expression, and where I can see the eyes well. Eyes are so important in a portrait, and since I can’t see your pet in front of me I need good images! Pictures can be e-mailed to beth@vegaburm.com.
Portraits generally take around a week to paint, and if I have a number of them lined up then there could be a wait time for your portrait. If you have a deadline please let me know when you order so that I can try to meet it, but also let you know quickly if it will not be possible.
Portraits will be matted to a standard frame size and arrive with backing in a plastic sleeve. They will not be framed. For an 8 by 10 portrait you will want a standard 11 by 14 frame and for an 11 by 14 portrait you will want a 16 by 20 frame. My paints are lightfast, but it is good to hang pictures out of direct sunlight to prevent fading. When buying a frame it is also not a bad idea to use UV resistant glass. Vertical or horizontal orientation will be determined by the pictures sent.
