Thank you for your DOG A DAY PORTRAIT order!
Your custom pet Portrait will be 10”x 10" - head and shoulders with a background color of your choosing.
This is what you do now:
1. EMAIL me as many photos (TO lsdevito@gmail.com) as you like of your dog, good face shots and photos which show me specific features and coloring. This page will show you the best poses for photos Sending lots of angles to help, nose CLOSE -ups are great and if there is a particular photo that you want to be painted - just let me know. (Please no long-distance photos that require me to crop and edit) . Photos taken in pretty outdoor (not flash) light are FANTASTIC. I work DIRECTLY from a photo so the better the photo, the better I will be able to capture your dog's unique personality. If you don't have a favorite picture and can't decide, I will pick a photo to paint that lends itself best to the portrait.
2. You then choose the background colors - CHECK OUT this page of previous portraits for more ideas .
I can do whatever color(s) you like, however, I do not add Furniture, people, other pets, the beach or trees, etc.
3. Tell me about your dog - His or her name, age and any other fun parts of their story that will help me get to know your dog better.
4. The sides of your painting will be painted with a color that complements your background color and your dog's coloring. In some cases, I continue the background color around the side if that looks appropriate. No frame is necessary.
5. I will send you a photo “Proof” a day or two before I share your painting of my Instagram @leslidevitopaintings - you can look it over - and then once you confirm that all is well - I will varnish.
Your Painting will be shipped early March -
