I have a craft fair coming up in a couple of weeks and I'm thinking of offering commissions for miniature pet portraits, art card-sized rather than the teeny tiny pet charms I did before. So, I need some examples! If you have a pet you'd like me to draw please post a photo or three of them here Any species is welcome!

Here's one of my girls! The other won't post for pictures

Here's some pictures of my lovely Autumn! Photogenic when she wants to be.. Keyword WANTS. Thanks for this, Sushi, even though we are all happy to help (and also gets to secretly see everyone's cute pets). UwU
I'll put most of mine in links so I don't flood the forum.

Ooo fun . I have lots of pets hahaha
I won't post pictures of all of them though, probably just the indoors pets. That's only the two dogs and the bird.

I'll post them later, it's my brother's Birthday today so we are going to have dinner and play the Nintendo (the old one).

This is Tai. Retta's and my chow chow. He has the cutest bear face, and he's SOOOOOOO fluff

EDIT: LOL. I promise both of his eyes are the same size. I just seem to catch his head at angles. XD

This is Pumpernickel (yes like the bread), my sweet loaf-kitty

Here, have a photo of my package opener:

Guaranteed to shred anything whether you want it shredded or not.
<-- This photo is not rotated, the parrot is... Also, her beak is dirty...

EDIT: oh by the way, this is Rio, my yellow crowned amazon parrot. Did I mention that she likes to chew things?

Ok. I am going to post more than one pet because I want to show off our cute doggies and our bird

First here is my beautiful dog Jade. She is a Beagle/Brittany Spaniel cross. Her manners have gone out the window since we moved but I love her to death.


I'll Link the rest because I just want to show them off

This is Merlin. He is the family dog that passed away last November at 16 years old. He was a hyper goofball that ate rocks but we loved him dearly. It being November makes me miss him more.

This adorable cheeseball is Kenai. He loves to smile. He looks ferocious but he isn't. We got him last December. Why so soon after we lost Merlin you might ask. My brother that hasn't ever known life without Merlin and was getting very depressed. My parents were getting worried about him. So when my sister asked if she could get a puppy. They told her yes.

This is BokBok (I named her when we got her 25 years ago. She made sounds that were chicken like so I called her BokBok). Our 26 year old Goffins Cockatoo. She doesn't look the best in this picture, she has just finished a molt and is getting the rest of her feathers back.

Ok other than the turtle and my grandma's two dogs that is all the indoor pets. We also have 2 horses, 2 bunnies, 3 chickens, 1 duck, and we've recently been adopted by a stray cat.
We love animals.

This is my precious girl DS Little Lady Godiva. My special needs child, which has suffered from seizures since she was 6months old. The photo was taken in her youth as she is now mostly grey in her old age and completely blind.

I have just lost my little cat MJ. She lived to be 8.5 years old and I would LOVE for you to draw her. It would mean the world to me and maybe bring me peace. She just passed on Thanksgiving (yestorday). *tears* I'm trying my best but this is very hard. I'm not trying to do a guilt trip just wold be great. I loved this cat more than just about anything...she used to play fetch and chace her own tail and prrr so loud you could hear her in the next room. Also she loved yellow. I will miss you MJ!! Hope you having fun in catnip heaven.

Sorry for your loss Codress.

Well, as you've noticed, I haven't gotten around to drawing any pets yet.. but as I've just signed up for a local pet fair in May I'm definitely going to need some examples now Will be doing a couple after VancouFur is open at the beginning of March!

Would TOTALLY be up for you drawing MJ. If you need a few more pics let me know from above. She just pasted this past Thanksgiving so would be a great embodiment of her in your GREAT art style. Hugs and good luck to all. ^_^
