custom cat portrait
A one-of-a-kind oil painting of your kitty based on your photo 💛
This is a special way to celebrate or memorialize your cat(s). They also make thoughtful gifts for cat lovers in your circle. 🐈
I make each portrait with lots of love and care, and it helps to have some details about your cat's personality and who they are to you!

I work closely from your photo, so I suggest sending a photo (or photos) of your cat that is evenly lit (no deep shadows on their face), not too busy, and shows the colors of your cat's eyes and fur accurately! If you have any questions, feel free to send me multiple photos and we can choose one together :)
framing & care
framing & care
Oil paintings on paper can be framed with or without glass. For greater longevity, frame it behind glass with a mat to give some space between the painting and the glass, and avoid putting your portrait in moist areas (kitchen or bathroom) :)
