I am a Cornwall-based pastel artist specialising in hand-drawn pet portraits. I create soft, lifelike pastel pet portraits using professional pastel pencils on high-quality archival paper. Each custom pet portrait focuses on capturing your pet’s unique personality, warmth, and expression. I create artwork both for enjoyment and by commission, producing timeless portraits of beloved pets.
