Pet Portrait Prices
I work with 1 size, 1 price. The price is for head and shoulders with a white background. If you want a soft color background, there is no charge. However, if you want a specific background, scarfs, play toys, etc., there will be an extra charge of $50 plus depending on the complexity.
Price for a Single pet in portrait, head and shoulders with no background (full body will be considered if it fits into the composition):
-8"x10 Painting matted to finish 11"x14" frame size $190
(11"x14" is a standard frame size)
-Please contact me if you need a special size
* Sales tax will be added for Texas residents.
The Painting will be shipped in a sturdy box via USPS Priority Mail with tracking.
Add $100 for each additional pet in the same painting.
Each one of my custom pet portraits are unique and one of a kind. If you want two or three dogs in the same painting, I will need a photograph of both or all of them in the same picture so that I can get a comparison of size. Then, I can use the individual photographs of each pet to work from (unless, of course, the photograph with all the pets in one comes out great, I will use that).
Just email me several pictures to choose from- preferably close ups of the head so I can get detail. Or, you can mail me the photographs, and I will return them when I am finished. I have some helpful tips on photographing animals on this website. Please keep in mind, the better the photo, the better the painting.

I use 140 lb. Arches high quality archival watercolor paper and archival mats. And, your painting will come with a signed Certificate of Authenticity.
Please allow 3-4 weeks for completion. *I require a $50 non-refundable deposit to get your pet portrait on my calendar. Extra time is required for the months September through December. Rush orders will be considered for an extra fee of $50. My guarantee is if you don't like it, I keep the painting and the deposit and you don't have to buy it.
As always, a portion of the proceeds from every painting I create goes to a No-Kill Animal Rescue Organization.
If you have any special requests, please email me so that we can discuss it.
Thank you for considering Pet Portraits by Sherry D. I hope to meet your precious furry friends. I always feel like I get to know the animal when I am painting them.
