    I Understand

    Immortalising your furry friends is a task I take very seriously. As a dog owner, I really understand the bond between owner and pet!

    I aim to capture their individuality and character in each painting, using my free, yet realistic watercolour style.

FAQ's

Do I need to have photos of my pet ready before I contact you?

Nope, please feel free to get in touch and I can help you with what sort of photos would work best. I normally have a month or two’s wait time so best to get booked in soon as you can then you can decide what photo.

What if I want you to paint a farm/exotic animals?

I will happily paint any animal you desire!

From a beloved pet, farm friend or wildlife from that special holiday. Through working closely together, we will achieve your bespoke portrait.I will happily paint any type of animal you desire! 

What sort of photos do you need?

Good quality headshots taken up nice and close, preferably outside as the natural light picks out all the details in the eyes and the fur. This is particularly important if your pet is black. Send as many pics as you like - the more the merrier! Most smartphones have sufficient cameras on them.

Photography Guide

How do I pay? And can I pay in instalments?

I normally take 20% deposit upfront and 80% upon completion. Invoices will be emailed to you.

You can also split payment into 3 monthly instalments via Klarna.

Please note that I can’t send the finished portrait until full payment has been made.

I need my painting really quickly, what’s your turn around?

I’m always happy to prioritise paintings with deadlines, so even if it’s next week it’s worth dropping me an email to see if I can squeeze you in last minute. Otherwise wait time can be anywhere between 3 weeks to 3 months depending on the time of year and how busy I am.

Do you do Gift Vouchers?

Yes I do. Gift vouchers are useful when it’s a present but you want the recipient to choose the photo for the painting.

They can be purchased through my online shop using the link below.

Can I share the painting on social media?

Yes please! Any word of mouth is greatly appreciated, so please don’t be shy about sharing with all your friends and family.

All social media handles are @victoriagordonartist

How do I look after my painting?

I use conservation grade materials which means your painting should last a lifetime if you look after it correctly - keep it out of direct sunlight and choose an acid-free mount when framing. If you go to a professional framer they can sort this for you.
