Commissions

I regularly take on commissions of animals of all types from dogs, cats to horses and farm animals.

My Commission work is created using Coloured pencils on archival paper, using the highest quality materials. Pencils allow me to hone in on the details, bringing your animal to life as realistically as possible. I have been doing commissions for many years and have gained lots of experience in capturing the essence of your beloved animals.

How to book a commission

Book your commission in by following these steps:

1. Find your image - To produce your drawing I need a good clear photo of your pet. The photo should be taken at a close distance, so I can see details of the animal like fur direction. The photo should show the animal's eyes, and ideally be taken at the same level as the animal (ie not from above or below).

2. Send your image to me at laurapennellart@outlook.com and let me know what size drawing you would like. If I can use the photo I will then send you my t&c's and current date for delivery. If you need the drawing for a specific date please let me know as I will always try and fit you in for that date!

3. Pay your deposit, and I will be in touch before starting the work to confirm. That's it!

All commissions include p&p in the price, and work is sent out by tracked and signed delivery with the utmost care.
