Michele Levani Art - Pet Portrait Artist - Nationwide
As a contracted pet portrait artist and Top rated national pet portrait artist with Petworks, I've painted thousands of custom pet portraits for individuals all over the world... and not just all sorts of breeds of cats and dogs! I’ve also painted Bearded Dragons, Ferrets, Horses, Turtles, Fish, Hamsters, Snakes… if it’s a pet, I’ve probably painted it!
I also love painting people, especially with their beloved fur babies!
You've decided to commission me... What's next? Send me lots of photos. The reference images that you send me to create a custom portrait should be as high resolution as possible. The quality of the image will, in many ways, determine the quality of the final drawing or painting. Clear photos of the eyes are best. Sending me lots of photos helps me better capture the personality of the subject. That being said, I understand that sometimes an individual may be limited on photos when it may be a pet that is no longer with you. Even with those limitations, I have many years of experience editing photos and can still create a beautiful portrait for you.

Picture turned out fabulous, better than I expected with the amount of guessing that had to be done
- Candra APet Pro's Response:
It was truly my pleasure! I do love a challenge, but you gave me a doozy, or should I say… 6 doozies! It’s said that a portrait will only be as good as the reference photo, but you and I proved that it can still be done. Working from those limited, blurry reference photos took a bit more time and patience, but with your detailed verbal, descriptions and good communication, I was able to visualize and still create an awesome painting of your mother’s 6 cats! I can’t wait to see the video of her reaction when she finally receives this special gift from you! Thank you!
