How to Order

To commission a portrait, either email me at janetburt@verizon.net, or call at 610-644-3259.

I work from photos. If you have them in digital format, please email them to me, or they can be sent via traditional mail if necessary. It's usually helpful to send several photos. That way, I get a better idea of your pet's appearance and personality, and can choose a photo that I think will make the most successful portrait. All prints will be returned with the finished painting. Check out the photo tips page for pointers on which photos make good portraits.

Before I begin, we will iron out the details, such as which photo I will work from, size recommendation (e.g., if you've chosen a rectangle when I think a square would work better), and any color preferences or other ideas you might have. And of course, I want to hear about your dog or cat's personality -- the more I know, the better able I am to capture your pet's personality on canvas.

Once the portrait is complete, I will send you a digital photo of the painting for your approval, either via email or traditional mail, if you prefer. Minor changes can be made at this point, if necessary.

Rush orders will be accomodated if at all possible.

Pricing

For additional dogs on the same canvas, please add 40 percent per pet. Custom sizes are available on request. If you have a specific size in mind that you do not see here, just give me a call (610-644-3259) or email (janetburt@verizon.net) and I will give you a quote.

Please note: 
All portraits are painted on 1 1/2 inch deep, gallery wrap canvases with the edge painted in a solid color, ready to be hung as-is. No framing necessary!

I ask for a 50 percent deposit to begin work, and 50 percent on completion of an approved portrait. To keep costs down, I accept only checks or money orders. Checks should be made payable to Janet Burt

The above prices do not include shipping.  If shipping is necessary, I will let you know costs and add them to the final amount due once you have approved the painting.
