Hello! I'm Simon, an artist based in Teddington, and I specialize in creating custom dog portraits that go beyond simple likeness. My aim is to capture the personality and spirit of your pet, blending traditional art techniques with modern technology to create something truly unique.

Each portrait focuses on your dog’s expression and character, with minimal background to keep the spotlight on your pet. I start each piece digitally on an iPad, which allows me to build a solid foundation, but the real magic happens when I bring in real-world materials. Using acrylics, oils, pastels, pencils, spray paint, and even cut-out paper, I add dynamic brushwork and rich texture, making every piece a work of art as unique as your furry friend.

This approach combines the timeless charm of classical painting with a fresh, contemporary style, creating a one-of-a-kind portrait that will be a cherished keepsake.
