Pet Portrait Deposit for May 2026

PLEASE NOTE This deposit is to secure a commission spot in MAY 2026. You will not be asked to pay the remaining balance until the start of May when I will be ready to begin your project. ___________________________________

This listing is for a non-refundable £50 deposit to secure a commission for a pet portrait. This amount will come off your final payment and postage will be paid at the same time as the deposit. There is an idea of pricing on my website (https://cassandrafrances.com/pricing/) which will be discussed in detail once I have heard your ideas. You will receive an email letting you know what I need from you shortly after the deposit is secured.

Once we have discussed your ideas I will give you a quote and you will be sent an invoice shortly before I am to begin working on the project. Work will not begin until the remaining balance has been sent over.

My painting can only match the standard of reference photo I receive from you. If your photos quality isn't great (and you can’t get more) please do not despair. I can usually create something with most photos provided to me as long as you understand that it may not be as detailed as some of the work you have seen me produce from very clear detailed photos.

I need photos to be:
-In focus/well lit and high resolution - if you want the painting to be detailed I must be able to see this detail clearly in the photo. I prefer them not to be screenshot from Instagram as the resolution will be poor.
-Nicely posed with nothing (such as an ear) cropped - I prefer for a selection of photos to be sent over so I can see which I think is most suitable but I pick one photo to solely work from and do not pick and choose features from each.

A rough idea of the timescale for receiving your finished painting is 1-2 months (possibly less if you are one of the first to send all your photos etc through) but if you did have a deadline you would like to try and meet please let me know and I will try my hardest to accommodate this.

I look forward to hearing your ideas and seeing your photos!
