Please mail (3) photos of your pet or pets that you wish to have in the designed picture.

Photos should be your favorites and best reflect your pet's personality.

It's preferable that photos are taken close to the animal and important their entire body be in the picture.

The photo should be clear and as focused as possible. The better the photo, the better the result.

Do not enlarge any photo you send.  Do not alter the photo in any way.  Send at 300 DPI JPG.

It is preferred to have the original photos  you wish to use mailed to me.  They will be returned with your completed order.

PLEASE DO NOT send images that have been copied off the internet or any that have a copyright attached!  If there is a "copyright" I must have approval from the photographer before I will use.

Many things can be corrected, such as "red eye" and other imperfections.  To some degree we can do a "make over."   If you only have one photo you wish to use  and it is not of "good" quality, I will do my best  to make it better. 

Please let me know  your wishes regarding the design of your picture.  I should also know if there are things you do not want done.  Open communication produces best results.  

It would be helpful to know  what your favorite hobbies, colors or interests are.  Also what your animal likes or does.  These facts will help to make your design more personal.  After looking over my web site, you might have a definite idea of what you want your design to look like.  Please let me know if you have something preferable in mind.

There are many different "finishes" and "artistic effects" that can be added or applied to your photo once the design is completed.  Your picture will then resemble the look of an oil painting, a watercolor or cartoon to name a few.  Often times, these wonderful "effects" enhance the photo and make it even more beautiful and unique.  You will find the "cartoon" effect makes the photo appear more whimsical and it tends to sharpen all the items in the photo making them look almost three dimensional. 

If ordering a canvas or watercolor print, I highly recommend an "artistic effect" be added to your design.  When printed on the high quality canvas or watercolor paper, which I use, it looks very much like a real work of art!

The time involved to complete your design is contingent upon photo quality and complexity of your request.   Year-end holiday orders may require additional time.  Please allow one to four weeks for delivery and consider this time frame when placing your order.

Proofs will be e-mailed before the "final" printing for your approval.  Adjustments can be made at that time.

Upon your approval of the "proof," the balance for your order will be due before printing is done.  Once balance is received, items will be finalized and shipped.
