Would you like to own a beautiful, specially commissioned
and entirely unique portrait of your pet or loved one?
Inspired by my love of fine jewels, antique porcelain, and art nouveau crafts,
I create beautiful Decorative Art Backgrounds for your very own Portrait Photos!
SINGLE-CLICK the Bones to use the Menu:
Make your portrait really special by having the sitter placed within a completely new background
that has been designed by you. Tell me all of your ideas, and show me what pictures you have,
and from us working together I will do my best to create it for you.
A commissioned Custom-Made Background is entirely a one-off design that will be unique,
and only owned by you. I will only keep one proof copy for my portfolio.
Personalisation is included in the price so you can have it if you want to.
Let me, fine artist Lorraine Hawkins from London UK, help you to turn your own portrait picture
into a high quality giclée print that will be very personal to you,
and be a timeless work of art to cherish forever!
Browse through my Decorative Art Backgrounds that I have already made and choose one for
your sitter to rest on. Inspired by my love of gemstone jewellery, antique porcelain,
and nature in all ts forms, I am constantly adding new designs to my collection of backgrounds
that I want to share with you. So do please keep looking!
COMMISSION A CUSTOM-MADE BACKGROUND - Truly Yours
DECORATIVE ART BACKGROUND - A Touch Of Fancy
If you prefer a simpler background, just let me know and I will place your sitter on a
Traditional Plain Background in a colour that brings out the best in your portrait.
Personalise your Decorative Art Background or Plain Background with text of your own choosing.
This can make it extra special to you, especially with families of pets where they can look alike.
PLAIN BACKGROUND - Keep It Simple
If your photo is mildly damaged, or the eyes need to be replaced from flash burn-out then I can
offer a digital photo Retouching service. I do not use Photoshop, so if your photo is very badly
aged or damaged, then I recommend you use a professional digital restoration service.

ENHANCEMENT & RETOUCHING - Restoration
You supply me with one or more of your photos, and then tell me what you want your background to be,
and I will use all of my art skills to create it for you - it can be
of your much loved pet or family member,
or even your favourite car - it can be of absolutely anything!

Printed on Epson Velvet Paper with longlife UltraChrome Inks, Petgem Portraits are available in two sizes:
8" x 10" or 12" x 16" As framing is a very personal choice, they come to you through the post Unframed
with a quarter of an inch bleed all around for easier frame-mounting.

I can provide three types of background:
Custom-Made, Decorative Art, and Plain, and I can
Personalise them all. Also don't worry if your photo is aged or damaged in any way as I am able to do a
reasonable amount of restoration and
Retouching to bring them back to their former beauty.

Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions of any kind about making an order,
and I will do my best to help you.
