Custom Oil Portraits
YOUR PET ON CANVAS
I work from your photos to create the perfect oil-on-canvas pet portrait, and send you updates throughout. Delivery in 2-3 weeks.
How it Works
Send me Photos
Email or Upload reference photos and tell me about your pet portrait: is it a gift? A memorial? Part of a series?
Discuss Size & Composition
Choose a size that fits, and we can take a look together at portrait compositions based on your photos.
Watch & Approve
I’ll send you updates during the pet painting process so you can give feedback until it’s just right. Painting and drying takes 1-3 weeks.
Enjoy Your New Painting!
Portraits are delivered ready-to-hang on gallery-wrapped canvas so they look fantastic with or without a frame.
From Clients
If you’re looking for realistic, life-like pet/animal art, I wholeheartedly recommend Zann.
The entire process was extremely simple and smooth. Zann’s attention to detail shines through every stage of the process, from her planning stage (i.e., computer mock-ups of your painting) to the actual painting, she would always send me updates and made sure that the painting was to my liking.
I was struck by how much the portrait really resembles our dogs and just how realistic it looks.
With every detail carefully placed right down to the look in their eyes, Zann was able to capture each of their individual personalities. Even their unique husky facial "masks" are right on point. Very impressed with the craftsmanship, professionalism and overall experience I had working with Zann.
