I always strive to meet a client’s deadline, but please bear in mind that each pet portrait drawing is very detailed and takes time to complete. If you have a strict deadline like a birthday or a wedding anniversary, please get in touch before ordering so I can confirm whether this will be possible. Lead time can vary based on seasonal peaks in trade and the size and complexity of each piece. I will advise an estimated lead time upon ordering. Current turnaround time is around 2 months from ordering, but if you have a specific deadline, I can try to juggle things around to meet it.

For unframed portraits, delivery is free of charge to the UK. I use a tracked 1st class service, which will get to you within 24 hours. Tracking information will be available. For framed portraits, I keep my postage costs low for my clients at £10. I use a courier service for larger and framed pieces. International delivery is also available, price calculated at checkout. All pieces are sent flat in protective packaging to eliminate risk of smudging. All portraits will be gift wrapped, whether framed or unframed.

I offer framing for my portraits, with prices available on the product pages. Professional framing is a service I am proud to offer from my framer Steve who has over 20 years experience, who I work closely with. This means your portrait will arrive with you framed and ready to hang straight away. These frames are made using finest quality museum glass, which offers UV protection and excellent viewing clarity. I can either give my framer his creative freedom to create a frame that compliments your portrait, or I can give him specific requests. I can also send him a photo of the interior of the room that you plan to hang the portrait, so he can match your interior. If you choose to have your portrait delivered unframed, this will allow you to visit your local professional framer who will create a perfect frame for the piece. Frames purchased in shops or online hugely vary in quality, but if you'd prefer to take this route, I'll give you the dimensions needed for the frame/mount of your portrait. "Our wishes for the frame were taken in to account and we couldn’t have asked for anything more fitting for our newly decorated hallway. Would absolutely recommend." Phoebe Lowes

Yes, this can result in a wonderful artwork showing the bond between your companion animals. Please see my product pages for prices depending on the amount of animals you'd like included. If you'd like to include more than 4 animals in a portrait, please get in touch for a quote.

Engraved name plaques can really finish off a framed portrait beautifully, for those looking for "the whole package". My plaques are made from finely brushed aluminium and are availale in both gold and silve tone. You can either simply have your pet or family's name, or any quotes that may be special to you. Some examples are: "Finley You have left our side, but you will never leave our hearts." "Finley You left a paw print on our hearts." "Our best friend, Finley We miss you" "Finley Part of the family since 2005"
