Pet Portrait Commissions

Now Accepting Commissions

I am currently accepting custom pet portrait commissions in graphite or color pencil on paper, and color pencil on wood panel.

Each piece is hand-drawn with care and precision, capturing the heart, spirit, and individuality of your beloved companion. With over 25 years of fine art experience, my goal is to create a portrait that feels both lifelike and timeless, a keepsake you’ll treasure for years to come.

The Process

1. Submit a Request

Please email corecentric@gmail.com with your contact information (name, email, phone, and shipping address), a brief description of the portrait you’d like, and your reference photos.
Include the size, medium (graphite or color pencil on paper, or color pencil on wood panel), and the number of pets to be featured.

Requests are reviewed in the order received. I’ll reply with a quote/invoice, an estimated turnaround time, and next steps.

2. Reference Photos

Clear, high-resolution images are essential. Please provide photos with good lighting and close-ups of your pet’s face and eyes to capture their unique personality and markings. Multiple angles are always helpful.

3. Deposit & Payment

A 50% non-refundable deposit is required to secure your commission.
The remaining balance, plus any shipping or framing costs, is due upon final approval. No refunds after completion.

4. Approval & Revisions

Once I begin, you’ll have the option to join a brief video call to review the initial sketch.
You may request small adjustments at this stage before I proceed with final rendering.
Upon completion, we’ll schedule a final reveal call for your approval prior to delivery.

5. Delivery

Finished artwork will be securely packaged and shipped, or available for local pickup/delivery in Orange County, California.
Framing can be arranged upon request for an additional cost.

From fur to feathers, I draw them all.


Whether it’s your loyal dog, graceful cat, or a wild raven that speaks to your spirit, every creature deserves to be immortalized through art.

Artist Rights & Usage

I reserve the right to share and display completed artworks on my website, social media, or promotional materials, unless you request otherwise at the time of booking.

Once full payment is received, the original artwork is yours to keep or gift. However, the artist retains all copyright and reproduction rights unless otherwise agreed upon in writing. Reproducing, printing, or selling the artwork without written permission is not permitted.

Privacy Policy

Your privacy is important. Personal information such as your name, contact details, and shipping address will be used solely for processing and delivering your commissioned artwork. Your information will never be shared, sold, or used for any other purpose.
