Painting Pets
Painting pets has become very popular over the past few years. Pet owners can send in photos of their pets to artists to have them professionally painted. The styles vary from hyperrealism to fantasy. The arts & crafts site ETSY has tons of these free-lance artists to choose from based on your favorite style. Other artists have painted their cats or dogs and gained fame for themselves and their pets (see examples of some artists below).
When you finish your pet portraits, they will be hung at Wet Pets and Critters in their party room! I am so excited to be able to share your talent with others and promote pet adoption too! YEA!!!!!!! :)
