Description

I am an Irish artist and art teacher who has been creating custom pet portraits for many years alongside my teaching across Tipperary. Painting animals has always been one of my favourite parts of my practice, and I love capturing the personality, warmth, and little details that make each pet special.

Your portrait is hand-painted in watercolour from your photograph, carefully created to reflect your pet’s expression, colouring, and character. Whether it is a gift, a memorial, or a piece for your own home, the finished artwork becomes a meaningful keepsake to treasure for years.

PROCESSING TIME
Please allow 2–3 weeks for completion, as each portrait is created by hand while I teach art classes during the week. Rush orders may be possible — just message me first.

ABOUT THE ARTIST
I am an award-winning LSAD Art & Design graduate (First Class Honours, Cornmarket Artist-Teacher Award) and currently work as an art educator. My practice focuses on portraiture and storytelling, and every commission is created with care, patience, and attention to detail.

If you would like something extra special, I also offer personalised additions such as handwritten messages or matching keepsake pieces — just send me a message.

Thank you for supporting an Irish artist and teacher. I would be honoured to paint your beloved companion.
