My portraits are typically in acrylic paint on Gessobord (or similar) cradled panels. They are lightweight, easy to hang and need no frame. I use the highest quality paint, brushes and painting surfaces, and this quality is reflected in your artwork. I will paint your cat realistically, in the Dia de los Muertos (sugar skull) style or in a combo of those two styles. It’s your choice! However I paint, know that your portrait will be bright, bold, contemporary, and a major conversation piece.
The better the photo that you send to me of your fur baby, the better the painting. Please click here for photo guidance.
It can take me many moons (or not – depending on the length of my wait list – please ask) to complete your portrait, because my art is in demand and there are often times lots of other private commissions on my roster. If you want to give a portrait as a gift immediately, ask me about gift certificates! People LOVE receiving RobiniArt gift certificates because they, the recipients, get to collaborate with me on the commission process themselves and have a more personalized involvement in the final portrait outcome. All you have to do is pay for it, and they do the rest!
I can possibly expedite your commission for an extra charge if it’s an emergency art situation.
Please read my customer testimonials to learn more about working with me, my processes and my work ethic. I typically post photos of the work in progress on my Facebook and Instagram pages unless the portrait is a surprise gift, so visit those accounts for behind-the-scenes photos. Call anytime to discuss a project at 512.963.4892. You can reach me via email at robin@robiniart.com.
IMPORTANT: There are absolutely NO RETURNS on custom orders or gift certificates, whether I’ve physically started your painting or not. I spend a lot of time with clients in the pre-painting phase with emails, phone calls, photo discussions, composition design, color conversations, graphic design for ideas, etc. That time is very valuable to me!
