Has anyone had formal portraits of thier pets done? Paintings or pics... either.. was just wondering and if so,, how much did it set you back? I was wanting to do my girl Lucy.... this is a pic of her taken yesterday.

Amy(wolfQ) did this for me as a present from Kay(Kfamr) She does such a good job. Here's her website with prices: http://www.geocities.com/wolf_q/information.html

I haven't gotten it done yet but I'd really like to. I just haven't been able to find anyplace that does one that's actually worth the money. :)

I know a lady on another board that did one of shadow for free(practice) she practices on the dogs from that board but I dont know if she goes their anymore after a little squabble with another member.. I asked her to do this of shadow for my dad birthday, its much much better in real life, my dad has it framed on his wall, and she had a print hanging in a coffee shop, it was the first one sold, a man from new york has the print.

Amy does a wonderful job! I'd say definitely worth the money. :D

Shayna that portrait is great too. :)

Amy did the both of these. They're hanging on my bedroom wall. :)

Yes to both.

A couple of years ago we had professional pics taken of Angus & Roxey (this was before we had Huney)
Angus:

Roxey:

And then I had Amy (wolf_q) do a cartoon of the both of them (she does awesome work, I would highly recommend her):
