Illustrated Portrait of your furry best friend!

I will draw your pet in my illustrative style from your photo. You can choose to receive your finished custom portrait as an A4 print or/and a digital file to print yourself (or use on your socials).
Select which option you would like.

How it works

Place your order here.


Send me a photo of your pet. This is the photo I will draw from, so make sure it shows of your pets best side! Good natural lighting is best. I will be drawing their head and some of their neck and I like to get as much detail in as possible. If you need help, send me a message and I can help you pick a photo. You can send me a few if you want me to choose the one I think will work best. You can send me the photos in a DM here or email them to me at holliemcmanus[at]gmail.com.

When you send me your photos, let me know your pets name and about their character. I love to know a bit more about the animal I’m drawing. ☺️

You can let me know if you have a preference on background colour, if you would like a light or dark background, or you can let me choose what I think is best to complement your pet. Let me know at the checkout.

Once I received the photos, I will get to work! Please allow 2 weeks for me to draw your beautiful pet and print your portrait. I will let you know when it's on its way.
If you have a specific special date that you really need your portrait by, let me know and I will do my best to meet your needs.

If you have any questions, just send me a message and I will be happy to help.

If you want more than one pet in the illustration, please message me before you order as this will be an extra charge.

Please note that this is a custom item, so once I have started work on it, I will not be able to offer refunds.

I have been lucky enough to have known some incredible animals in my life, including one or two who have changed it completely. To be able to find a way to help other people celebrate and remember their cherished pets is so special to me.
