~ Latest News ~ ~ I recently donated a portrait prize for Pet Street's Pet Idol competition - check out the site! ~ I have started to offer pen drawings as a portrait option - prices are the same as for pencil portraits.

My website contains all of the information you need to commission a pet portrait. Email me on karen@portraitsofpets.co.uk for a no-obligation quotation. All subjects considered, including non-pet.

I work in either watercolour, pencil or pen to capture the unique personality of your pet.

Images of finished works are displayed in my online Galleries - Dogs, Cats, Non-Pet, Pencil/Pen, Scotland, Corbie Pup & Co Cartoons and Labrador paintings, the breed I have the most requests to paint.

A little bit about me
I'm the proud owner of a chocolate labrador called Corbie, my artistic inspiration - as you will see from all of the labrador drawings and paintings on my site! I moved to Scotland in 2003, having grown up on the south coast of England. My parents Westies were my first portrait models. I have been concentrating mainly on the pet side of my art since 2005.

I am a keen photographer and Scotland gives me great scope to pursue this hobby. You can view my photos of Scotland at http://www.photoboxgallery.com/1000-words

I enjoy hiking in the Scottish mountains with Corbie and I never get bored of the stunning scenery up here.
