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.

I offer two sizes:
An 11" x 15" matted up to a standard 16 x 20 size so you can buy a ready-made frame. Price: $300, includes shipping and insurance.

I also offer a smaller, 8" x 10" head study (with no background) for $100, matted to 11 x 14. Shipping is additional.

Larger sizes are available. Contact me for a price quote.

There is a small additional charge for more than one animal in the painting. Your snapshots will be returned with the finished portrait. I can also work from emailed photos. 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.

Cat painting
Full body with scenic background

Head study with solid color background

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).

For multiple pets in a portrait, or a larger size, please contact me for a price quote.

Your satisfaction is guaranteed. If you are not happy, I will either fix it or take it back and refund your money.
