JAGUARWOMAN CUSTOM SERVICES . . . Pet Portraiture

Jaguarwoman does hi resolution digitally-painted custom pet portraiture from photographic references, placing your pet into the setting of your choice. If you don't know what your choice is, I can help you there too. I can think of a great setting.

These custom pet portraits can be provided in a variety of digital formats. Firstly, I provide the digital files in the original lossless psd files with instructions for printing in a variety formats so that you can have many useful versions of your pet portrait.
For a fee, I can also do the printing for you.

The high resolution digital file format makes possible a wide variety of usages for your personal or commercial needs.

For example, the digital files can be imprinted on everything from coffee mugs to coasters to t-shirts or signage and greeting cards. Or they can be used for website design. Because the original work is in a high resolution form, it can also be printed on high quality photo paper on a home printer and framed. I often make prints on a fairly inexpensive Epson Pixma MP450 and the prints come out absolutely beautifully! So I know that most people can get a similar outcome from their files. But I also have a more complex, large format, higher resolution printer that does an even better job with color. The files can also be enlarged without any distortion and printed on canvas on a large format printer and framed as a genuine portrait. I have several of my own digital paintings hanging in my home and the quality of the digital art looks exactly like real portrait. I've had a lot of my own digital work printed in gallery-wrap canvas by Imagekind.com with no loss of clarity. In short, the digital file format provides enormous versatility for pet portraiture.

I love dogs and I have a particular feeling for capturing their individual character. The portrait I'm using as an example here is of Corky, a clever Pomerianian belonging to my dog trainer, Kate, who owns Fast Pup Dog Training, in Tacoma, Washington, and who I've come to know from many off-leash walks with my own dogs in the countryside. This is the setting in which I normally see Corky: very perky and happy, sitting at attention on a rock amongst the weeds. Click here to see a large example of this dog portrait.

I can do custom digital painting in a variety of commissions: head shots or full body portraits, at rest or in motion, in natural settings or in fantasy settings. It depends on the needs of the client, the reference photos provided, and of course . . .the animal.

Fees are based on individual needs of the client. I write a contract for each project which requires a 50% deposit, with the balance due upon completion.
