Frequently Asked Questions
1
What images should I send?
High-quality, clear photographs with natural light are preferred. Try to find photos that are close up, so I can see the details better. Most of my paintings are mainly of the face and shoulders of the pet. The more details I can see in the photo, the more details I can include in your painting. Please avoid photos with a bright flash from the camera.
Send at least five photos. The more the merrier! I can help you choose the best one for the painting.
If you do not feel like you have a good enough photo, try a photo session with your animal using treats or incentives. I would rather wait for the best photo than settle for a lesser quality.
