Classic

Everything else in the range does something to your pet. This collection does not. No uniform, no crown, no flat colour - just your animal, painted properly.

That makes it the most timeless option, and the one most likely to still be on the wall in ten years. It is also the easiest to hang in a room that is already traditional.

Classic portraits use directional light and a dark, softly graded background. The effect is that your pet appears to emerge from the shadow rather than sit in front of a colour.

It flatters almost every coat, and it is particularly good for pets with complex markings, because the shadow lets some of the detail fall away instead of competing for attention.

• Pick the style that feels most like them, and tell us their name.
• Upload one clear photo of their face. If it will not reproduce well, we ask for another before any work starts.
• Approve your proof. It arrives in 1-3 working days, and nothing is printed until you say yes. Revisions are unlimited and free.
• It ships free and tracked, ready to hang.

Alongside full-colour oil, this collection includes sepia and charcoal treatments. Both remove colour from the decision entirely, which is useful when the portrait has to sit alongside existing black and white photographs.

Charcoal in particular works well in a hallway or a stairwell, where a colour portrait can feel heavy. Sepia sits more naturally in a room with wooden furniture or older family photographs already on the wall.

Framed arrives ready to hang in a real pine frame with shatterproof plexiglass, in white, black, natural wood or dark wood. Canvas is stretched over a slim 2 cm frame with no glass at all.

Framed suits a gift, because it looks finished the moment the box is opened. Canvas suits a wall that already has a lot going on. Both use the same artwork, so the choice is about the room rather than the portrait.
