Custom Pet Portrait
Pet Portrait Commissions are currently OPEN!
So you're interested in a custom dog portrait!? Below is everything you need to know before requesting to start the project. Please read thoroughly as I have two options / styles for dog/pet portraits. Although I love my unique take on a pet portrait, I still value and love creating art in the more traditional ways. If the first description doesn't suit your needs, please know I will happily create an acrylic painting on canvas - a more traditional approach, to fulfill your desires for a pet portrait that will look lovely in your home.

​
The Process
Sarah requires a well lit portrait style photo of your pet to start. She draws the silhouette or outline of the dog onto a piece of wood that she then cuts out using a scroll saw. Once cut out, she's able to sand and prime the wood and then paint your pup using acrylic paints. Once the pup is complete, she places it onto a wood panel that she has painted with spray paint, glues it down, and then pours a clear coat of resin over the entire piece. If you would like a little sparkle in your resin, Sarah can add a touch of glitter into it! If you'd like to see a video of the process, you can find process videos on her instagram account, Sarah.rimboch
If you have read through everything and would like to start working with Sarah, please fill out the order form below and she will contact you as soon as possible. Reminder that these are created solely by Sarah and she does not have a team helping her. So depending on her work load, custom portraits can take anywhere between 3-8 weeks.
