ABOUT JO
I'll remember your dog's name before yours, I'll give up my seat rather than disturb the dog in my chair and I've been drawing and painting dogs for as long as I can remember.
I specialise in watercolour portraits and for the last five years I’ve been developing my digital painting practice. My paintings are packed with personality, I aim to capture the heart and soul of our companions one waggy tail at a time
I’ve won awards for my work, I’ve made people cry and I love my dog just as much as you do yours.
WATERCOLOURS
To keep things affordable and offer my services to as many people as possible I have 3 sizes available A5, A4 both for a single pet and A3 which can be for up to two dogs
Prices range from £135 - £375+
Bespoke sizes and more than two dogs (add £95 per additional pet) can be arranged.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
You can book online and pay your deposit, send me your photographs and we agree on a timescale, the balance is due once you’ve seen a photo of the final painting and before I ship it. P&P is included in all prices.
**NEW** DIGITAL OIL PORTRAITS
To create these, I use a pressure-sensitive stylus and tablet with digital oil paint brushes (some made by myself), on high-resolution scans of a real canvas, and these are all made on a computer.
Every brush stroke is made by my own human hand, there is no AI being used here, but all the limitations of traditional oil paintings are removed, the mess, chemicals, drying time, and the space required, meaning I can complete an animal portrait in 1-2 weeks and I can paint them in pretty much any location.
The final piece is professionally printed as a high quality art print rich in colour and surface quality, it’s also considerably cheaper than an original oil painting of several thousand pounds. My digitally painted works start at £375, and larger size prints with multiple subjects can still come in at less than one thousand pounds (the bigger the printing size, the bigger the printing costs, therefore prices will be quoted and agreed upon before any work begins)
FINE ART PRINTS & CARDS
I have a selection of Giclee prints of some of my original pieces with prices from £45-£65 , please visit my online shop to view, they make great gifts for any special occasion. Greeting cards are sometimes available, sign up to my newsletter to be updated when.
Lastly, I also design greeting cards for Thortful, and you can browse my cards here

Reviews
“I got recommended to Jo by a mutual friend, after showing me some of her previous work. I was looking for two pictures of a friend's Poodle's for their birthday, so spent several visits to my friend trying frantically to photograph the lovely doggies, who of course wouldn't sit still. Jo was great and was able to give me instructions as to the type of image that would work well for her to paint. Once she had these, it only took her a week to have the portraits painted and an email with snaps of them so I could see. Marvellous! So exciting to see the photos transformed in Jo's fabulous style. The original A5 portraits arrived the next day, well presented in mounts and cellophane ready to gift wrap to my friend. I couldn't fault any part of the process, communication and the end result was just gorgeous!!”

“A friend introduced me to Jo's work and I could immediately see that she captured the character of the animals she painted perfectly. I commissioned her to paint one of my dogs for my birthday present and we worked together to get the style, colour palette and the character of my dog just right. It is the most perfect and wonderful gift to me, EVER. I smile every time I look at her on the wall, and love it! It is a great gift for anyone who has ever had a pet, and from cards to commissions, Jo works really hard to make sure that everything she does is just perfect. A great find! ”

“I saw that Jo was Helping Paws and asked if she would be able to paint my cat, Cato. Within the hour I had sent the photo and from then, was in constant contact, being updated to his painted progress. When I received the email to make sure I was ok with it before it went to print I was absolutely chuffed, Jo had captured his colours, eyes, basically everything so well, I decided to buy the original as well as the cards. I will certainly recommend and buy for friends and family in the future.”

“I ordered as a gift for my mother 2 packs of cards of her two dogs. I also as a treat got a pack of cards done of my dog done too. When the cards arrived they were much better quality than I expected for the price! I received an email a week after I sent the photos to show me what the pictures had come out like and then the cards arrived a week or so after that. I was kept informed at each stage of the process and everything arrived in pristine condition. They have made wonderful gifts - my mother loves them! Last week I bought the original artwork that was painted for the cards. They arrived yesterday. I am so pleased and I know that they are going to look fantastic in frames. I really can't believe the price of the original artwork - so inexpensive for the quality. Whether it's a treat for yourself or a gift - I highly recommend this company! Juliet ”
