Turn a photograph of your beloved pet into a realistic pet portrait that you can treasure forever. please read all the information below and do not hesitate to get in contact if you have any questions. I absolutely love drawing your pets. Not only is it my passion, I love the feedback 
and reactions from my customers which makes it all the more special for me. They make amazing gifts for friends and family too. A photograph of your portrait will come in a keyring alongside your A5 portrait so you can carry it around with you always.
HOW I WORK
- My aim is to capture the accurate features, proportions and overall likeness of your pet/animal.
- I like to draw from one reference photo so that I can accurately capture the true likeness of the animal. 
- My preferred media is coloured pencils. This allows me to capture the intricate details. I use professional Faber Castell and
Derwent pencils on 200gm (fine grain heavyweight) paper.
WHAT I NEED FROM YOU
- All I need from you is a great photograph of your pet or the animal you would like me to draw. You can send in as many as
possible and together we can decide which would be the best reference photo.
- I am also able to make adjustments such as adding/removing a collar.
- When you place your order please send as many photographs of your pet as you like via email admin@myfriendchloe-artdesign.com I will then contact you ASAP and together we can discuss which reference photo I should draw from. You can send in a headshot or full body photograph but most of my customers prefer a headshot portrait. The choice is yours.
- The best photographs to draw from are preferably as clear as possible. If there is lots of reflection and highlights in the eyes this will help me to make a fantastic and realistic portrait. I am able to enhance detail in the eyes if your photograph isn’t completely clear. If you haven't already, take a photo of your pet in natural sunlight and perhaps use a treat to encourage a nice pose whilst you get your shot.
