Legal & Policies

Please read these documents carefully before placing a commission. By ordering, you agree to the terms outlined below.

Terms & Conditions

Overview

These Terms & Conditions govern all purchases made through this website. By placing an order, you agree to the terms outlined below.

Artwork

All portraits are original artworks created from the photos you provide. Colours, style and likeness may vary due to artistic interpretation. Digital previews (if offered) are indicative only.

Ordering process

You are responsible for providing clear, high-quality reference photos. Work begins once the required payment is received. If additional information is needed, you will be contacted before the artwork is started.

Payment

For small portraits (up to A3), full payment is required before the order is shipped. For large or bespoke portraits, a 30% non-refundable deposit is required at the moment of ordering, with the remaining balance due before dispatch. All payments are taken in GBP. Prices may change without notice.

Delivery

Canvas and print orders are shipped to the address provided at checkout. Delivery times vary depending on location and courier availability. Digital files (if applicable) are delivered electronically.

Refunds & cancellations

Because each portrait is custom-made, refunds cannot be offered once work has begun. If you need to cancel before the artwork starts, please contact me as soon as possible. If an item arrives damaged, a refund within the courier's insurance value will be provided only if shipping insurance was requested at the time of dispatch and proof of damage (e.g., photo evidence) is supplied within 48 hours of delivery. I cannot take responsibility for delays, loss or damage caused by shipping companies.

Copyright & usage rights

You retain ownership of your pet's likeness and the photos you submit. I retain full copyright to the artwork. You may not reproduce, resell or distribute the artwork without written permission. Unless you request otherwise at the time of purchase, I may use images of completed portraits for my portfolio, website, social media or promotional materials.

Customer responsibilities

You confirm that you own the rights to the photos you submit or have permission to use them. You agree not to reproduce or resell the artwork without written permission.

Privacy
