Pet Portraits by Marilyn

Marilyn Hoback, painting professionally for over 40 years, has turned her attention to painting pets.

Her work is now in collections all around the California Central Coast, the San Francisco Bay area, and the Pacific Northwest.

All painting is done from favorite photos of your pets. Paintings are on stretched canvas, using professional grade acrylic artist paints and varnish. Sizes will be standard, unless otherwise preferred, so that they will fit ready-made frames.

Contact the artist at remt1958_1@juno.com to make arrangements to have your pet professionally painted with the precision and passion that your pet deserves

For best results in photographing your pet, either get down to the level of your pet or put it up on something so that you are not pointing the camera down.

Working with more than one photo will give a more complete understanding of the facial planes and highlights and shadow areas.

I will email the portrait image when it is about half completed for your approval. Any changes that are needed will be made at that point.

Pet Portraits by Marilyn start at $175 for a 9 x 12" size.

If specific backgrounds are to be painted, there will be an additional charge.

Shipping and handling fees will be added.

There is a 50% non-refundable deposit required before work begins.

I will need approximately 2 weeks per subject for a painting. (A portrait with 2 figures will require 4 weeks, etc.)

Artist retains copyright of original work and prints. Artist reserves the right to determine pricing on all commissions.
