Meet Your Pet Portrait Artist

My name is Mark Kingston and my mission is to immortalise your pets unique personality. I have been passionate about art and pets since my early childhood. My work has been featured in national galleries both in Australia and overseas.

So you want a pencil portrait of your dog from a photo or your favourite cats best features captured? I have been creating custom pet portraits for over 10 years. The process is explained in detail below but to put it simply you send in a photo of your pet. We discuss how to best present it including the artwork size and I go ahead and create your unique work of art.

You can view my paintings as well as my pencil work throughout this website. I know I can capture the unique charm and character of your special pet.

In addition to hand drawn pet portraits I can also extend this service to full size oil pet portrait paintings by special request. This includes animal portrait painting and of course dog portrait painting. The paintings are photo realistic oil paintings, a medium I specialise in.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I arrange Framed Pet Portraits?

I can offer the pet portraits framed for an additional cost. For example framed versions of the 40x 30cm graphite pencil pet portraits are $400.00, for the full image and the frame. The frame would be the same as the black frames pictured in the ‘drawings for sale page’, with a double matte of grey and white.

Can I have a full body pet portrait?

Normally it is better to focus on your pets face as this can better capture their unique character. If however you are interested in this service please contact me first as some images are not suitable for full body portraits.

Can you add backgrounds for pet portraits?

In most cases this detracts from the image of your loved one. If however you would prefer this approach please contact me and we can discuss whether this would be suitable for the image you have in mind.

Pet Portrait Gift Certificates

Looking for a truly personal gift for someone you love or simply a unique Christmas gift. What more could you give than a unique wall hanging celebrating a loved one in their life. I can arrange a full electronic gift certificate ready to present to your loved one on their special day or simply to say you love them!

Is there a discount for multiple Pencil Drawings?

Want your whole extended family immortalised. This is a common request especially with dog portrait art. Yes I can do this for a discounted price and in a similar style so they can adorn any wall together in style. It is best if all images in this case are presented in the same format or they can look awkward together on the wall.

Do you do Wildlife Art?

Yes of course cat and dog lovers are not the only pet lovers out there. I am happy to work with any animals you are lucky enough to call your friend.

Why is this better than Digital Pet Portraits Australia?

If you are asking this question then this might not be the right service for you. This is a unique one off piece, hand drawn with passion. A digital print is not very different from a blown up photograph. Still attractive perhaps but not at all the same thing.

Cost of Pet Portraits

I try to be very upfront with my costs with no hidden surprises. Below I have published a list of standard prices. Once agreed I will not deviate from these prices even if the work takes me longer than anticipated.

If you are after a custom size or something unique not featured in the price list below please contact me and we can work out a way to make your unique vision come to life!
