DOG PORTRAITS
I offer graphite or coloured pencil in the following sizes to create a realistic portrait of your dog. I also offer montages, for these you can choose whether the drawings are cartoons, realistic or something in between, and I fill a page with your dog doing all the things they love doing! Here are sizes and prices, with more expressive/ cartoon montages being at a reduced price.
A5- £60
A4- £125
A3- £250

CANINE SCULPTURES
I can sculpt and paint by hand a personalised model of your dog! Using the highest quality polymer clay, acrylics and sculpting tools I can create your dog in roughly the 1:12 scale, although you can commission larger or smaller. Using photos taken from many angles, I replicate every detail that you love, their subtle shades of colour, their texture, expression and character, brought together in your choice of pose. Complete with a 'Pebbly Beach' tag, this is a lovely tribute to your four-legged friend! I can also sculpt any species of wild canine, perfect for collectors of animal models and also for anyone who loves the wild cousins of our dogs! Prices for a 1:12 scale dog are as follows:
Small Dog- £15
Medium Dog- £20
Large Dog-£25
Extra Large Dog-£30
NEEDLE FELTED DOGS
Using high quality soft sheep's wool and a felting needle I can create a highly realistic replica of your friend using the ancient craft of needle felting. Starting with a wire armature I gradually build up the layers of wool, creating the anatomy and muscle structure and then layering this with all the shades and colours in the coat and the specific texture of your dog's fur. The needle is barbed which pulls the wool into itself creating an amazing transformation from a ball of wool to a firm structure in the shape of a dog! I love this form of art and spend many hours over many days over several weeks recreating your dog as realistically as possible, using photos from all angles. I believe this is one of the best ways to celebrate your friend as it is the most lifelike form of art I offer and I try to make the end 3D model look as though it is just a scaled down version of your real dog! It is also perfect as a memorial, a replica of your much missed companion that will stay with you for your entire lifetime. Prices vary depending on the size of the model and complexity of the colours and fur texture, but they start at £150 for a model that's 14cm at the head, in your chosen pose.
