Fine Pet Portraits - an artist's blog

My name is Sandra Palme, I am a professional pet portrait artist based in the UK. I draw your dog, cat horse or any other pet in pastels, charcoal, coloured pencils or graphite. It is my goal to capture the pet's personality and essence as well as their looks. I know how much your pet means to you as I feel the same about mine!

Progress on Arabian horse portrait

The pastel of Spirit the Arab is coming along nicely as you can see here:

The client has chosen a soft light blue background which I think is a great choice and will set Spirit's head off nicely.

Arab head study WIP

'Spirit' is six years old and was bred in Poland. Seems I've drawn quite a few chestnuts lately!
