How to order a custom portrait of your pet
Each pet portrait by Terry Albert is carefully painted in watercolor and colored pencil or pastel from snapshots you provide. I work from your photos and instructions to create an original image that when finished is matted and ready to frame to a standard 16 x 20 size. The actual image is about 11" x 15". I charge $300. Price includes shipping and insurance. Larger sizes are available.
Your snapshots will be returned with the finished portrait. I will contact you before I start, to discuss what you would like. I prefer to get several photos, even if they aren't very good. I can pick a good pose and fill in some missing details from the other photos.

I offer two types of pet portrait:1) a head study or full body study with a solid color background of your choice. 2) a head study or full body with a scenic background of your choice. I can work from photos or descriptions of the type of background you would like. Some ideas: flowers, a garden, in a favorite bed with a toy, in a hunting scene with birds flying in the background, or looking out your window. Look through the galleries on my site to get some ideas. |
Close-up photos of your pet work much better!Get down to eye level with your dog, cat or bird and try to photograph him straight-on, instead of looking down at him (or her).
