House Portrait with Pets

My clients often ask me if I can add pets to their commissioned piece and my answer is always an enthusiastic “Yes!”

My house portrait commissions are archival quality hand painted watercolor renderings that are hand drawn with graphite and aquarelle pencil and archival ink on 100% cotton fine art paper. I use only lightfast pigments to achieve heirloom pieces that will stand the test of time and retain their beautiful colors.

Here’s how it works: Simply purchase the portrait online, and then email me at pennypinestudio@gmail.com with an image of your house as well as an image of your pet in the pose that you’d like. Your purchase includes up to two pets in your portrait. If you would like to add more than two pets, message me to discuss a custom quote. Please include the address of the house and let me know if the portrait is for a special occasion such as a birthday, housewarming, anniversary, or Christmas. If it is, kindly provide the deadline for completing the piece. The deadline must be at least 4 weeks from the date of purchase.

Please include the following details in your email:

• Items that MUST be included in the painting
• Items that you would like removed. While I always edit out obviously unsightly items, feel free to specify any additional objects or elements you would like to be removed from the final artwork.
• Any edits you’d like that are not reflected in the reference image
• The color of details of the home such as doors, shutters, etc. if they are not clearly visible in the photo
• Whether you want the painting in vertical or horizontal orientation (most renderings will be horizontal, but for some, vertical is best)
• Any hand lettering you would like added

Once I receive your email, I will personally respond, confirming the receipt of your email, images, and information. Additionally, I will provide you with an estimated completion date for the rendering, as well as a date when work on the commission will begin.

Please note that returns and exchanges are not accepted for custom pieces. Refunds will not be approved after I have begun work on the portrait.
