Custom Art

Want a custom artwork of your pet? We can do that! We'll even put it on cool things for you, like mugs, tumblers, art prints, and more! Commissions do not come free, but we do our best to make the price work for our artist, Gwen, and you, the customer/client.

Info & Instructions

To get custom artwork made, a little bit of work is required on your part. We need photos of your pet, in good lighting and from multiple angles. The required angles are: Front, Back, Left & Right Sides, and Front, Left, & Right Sides of the Face. More angles and poses are also helpful, as they can help frame the shape of the pet you'd like to have drawn.
Other helpful information is the overall personality of your pet, and what you'd like the image of them to look like, pose like, and express. If you want your cat to look grumpy, your dog to be playing, or snake to be hissing, it's all info we need to know!
These art commissions will be in a stylized, semi-cartoony style. This way, we can better show emotions on your pet!
Please know that this art is exclusively for personal use. This means gifts, home decor, etc. Artwork for commercial use is handled and priced very differently.

Pricing

Art takes a lot of time to make, and needs to be priced fairly with both the customer and the artist in mind. We've done our best to price to be fair for the work that goes into the art, but also keeping it within reach of most people.

Half of the total of the commissioned artwork, not including physical items such as prints, mugs, or tumblers, is required up front before a commission is started.

The cost of the artwork alone is $50

*To have an accent added to the art, such as a floral or accessory, can cost $10-$30

To get it on a white cardstock art print, it's $20

We'll put it on a mug for $25

Or, on a 20oz stainless steel tumbler for $35

*Does not include small items like collars. Does include mobility devices, accenting plants, toys, etc.

(Prices shown are per item. For five or more of any item, contact us for pricing.)

Any changes to artwork after a certain level of completion may add an additional fee, especially changes to line-work. Complexity fees for animals that are complex in nature, such as reticulated pythons, may be added.

For no extra cost, the background can be transparent, simple shapes, or a solid color or gradient of some kind. Please know that gradients and solid colors may translate weirdly onto any physical item.

2. Work in Progress (WIP) Sharing and Editing, and Revisions. Before full detail is added to an artwork, it may go through stages of sketches to make sure it meets what the customer/client desires.
