Welcome to my Pets, Portraits & Wildlife Art Website
|
My name is Karen and I am a professional Artist creating highly detailed bespoke portraits for customers within the UK and Internationally. I work in both Coloured pencils and Acrylic paints alongside my partner & fellow Pet Artist John Graham, here in our home studio situated in Newbiggin by the Sea, Northumberland,UK.
I have been commissioned to create detailed portraits of much loved Pets, human portraiture and Wildlife for over 20 years and have a great passion for what I do. All my pet & portrait Artworks are hand drawn or hand painted by myself to ensure I capture the true spirit of the subject, working with professional quality products to ensure your portrait lasts a lifetime and beyond. |
Feel free to take a look around my website and get in touch if you have a question or wish to book your own bespoke portrait.
Thank you for your visit today!

Every piece of Art I create is adapted from photographs provided by the customer and you can watch your portrait come to life via a progress page here on the website. You can request a no obligation quote or book through my online Booking Form or visit my Prices or Sizing pages to get an idea before getting in touch. A framing service is available with all my Acrylic paintings and ensures your Artwork is securely and professionally framed with the final portrait being collected or sent out using a reputable Worldwide delivery service.
Testimonials
Take a look at some of the lovely Testimonials I have received from previous customers who have booked portraits of their Pets and loved ones as well as Wildlife Commissions. It is always special to get feedback, especially hear the reaction from the one who was gifted with a portrait as well as seeing photos of framed portraits in their new home! Here are 3 recent Testimonials from happy customers.
