Capture the essence of your beloved pet with a custom hand-painted watercolor portrait on Arches 140 lb cold press paper. Using your favorite photos, I carefully paint each portrait to reflect the unique personality and spirit of your pet. Arches paper is known for its exceptional quality and texture, making it the perfect medium for creating a lifelike representation of your furry friend. This archival, acid-free paper ensures your portrait will last for generations. The rich texture of the cold press surface allows for beautiful, subtle details, and a softness that enhances the overall warmth and charm of the artwork. However, due to the nature of watercolor on paper, your finished portrait will need to be matted and framed under glass to preserve its beauty and protect it from environmental factors. Whether as a cherished keepsake or a thoughtful gift, a custom watercolor portrait on Arches paper is a timeless and personal way to honor your pet. Key Features: Archival Quality: Arches 140 lb cold press paper is acid-free and archival, ensuring your portrait will endure for generations. Rich Texture and Detail: The cold press surface provides a textured, artistic finish with rich detail and subtle depth. Professional Framing Required: For optimal preservation, the painting will need to be matted and framed under glass. Personal Touch: Each portrait is hand-painted to capture the unique essence of your pet, making it a one-of-a-kind piece of art. How it works: This is for ONE pet Send me 1-3 clear photos of your pet I will email you a picture of the finished painting for approval before it is shipped.
