Testimonials
Anyone can take a photo of their pet but it is something special to have your animal immortalised in an original hand painted artwork.
Kathryn’s pastel portrait of our lakeland terrier, Rogey, captures him in every detail and we are absolutely delighted with the painting.
We would highly recommend Kathryn to anyone who is thinking about commissioning a portrait of their special friend.
Sarah and Rob, Southport
You have managed to capture Monty’s essence.
A wonderful portrait to treasure. Thank you.

The pastel portrait of Hetty my golden doodle is an amazing likeness. However, Kathryn also captured her personality in her dark brown eyes and gentle expression which is remarkable. Couldn’t be happier and it takes pride of place on the wall.
