Watercolor Pet Portraits

Custom paintings that showcase your love for your furry best friend.

Watercolor pet portraits—including watercolor dog portraits and custom cat portraits—are an invitation to laugh, smile, cherish, and remember. Pet portraits capture the faces of the animals we share our days with—the furry creatures who remind us how to live with loyalty, love, and happy abandon. A watercolor portrait of a dog, cat, or other furry friend is perfect for friends and family, whose lives are gifted sunshine by the pets they adore. For those pets who have walked across the rainbow bridge, a custom watercolor portrait as a pet memorial gift captures the loving likeness of animals who will forever have our hearts.

S. Larson creates keepsake watercolor paintings from your favorite photo of a pet.

Watercolor Dog Portraits

"Dogs are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole." ― Roger Caras

Dog owners know that nothing is as entertaining and heartwarming as the personality of their favorite four-legged friend. A custom watercolor portrait brings your dog's unique emotions to life on paper, each precise, gentle brushstroke evoking a certain sly cock of the eyebrow, exploratory whisker, or contented grin. Show your love for that special good boy or good girl through art.

Watercolor Cat Portraits

"I have lived with several Zen masters — all of them cats." ― Eckhart Tolle

Ahh — cats! What other creature can so easily make us laugh, smile, throw up our hands in frustration, and then immediately return us to a state of adoration? Cats intrinsically understand their place in the world: rightful king or queen of the roost. Give your kitty the highest place of honor in a custom watercolor portrait.

Watercolor Pet Portraits

"An animal's eyes have the power to speak a great language." — Martin Buber

All pets deserve to be cherished and loved. Whether as a gift for a loved one or for yourself, a custom pet portrait captures your pet's unique image in a heartwarming painting, bringing a lifetime of memories and happiness. Sharon Larson creates beautiful custom watercolor portraits of horses, birds, goats, reptiles, and other animals.

Watercolor Pet Memorial Portraits

Pets touch our lives in ways words can't explain, and we hold onto the wonderful joys they shared with us long after they've passed on. Perhaps the only fault in our wonderful pets is that their lives are far too short.

A watercolor pet memorial gift gives our hearts a place to see them, remember, take solace, and smile.

 
 
I originally found S. Larson Watercolors on Facebook when a painting of a dog she shared caught my eye, and I was excited to have her paint my dog, Bentley. I loved it so much I had her paint my mom’s three dogs as well. She managed to capture each of their personalities perfectly based on the photos I provided. Sharon always communicates her schedule so you know when to expect your painting to be finished, and she is always on time and efficient. If you want to give a personal gift to someone in your life (or even yourself!), I highly recommend her work. We will cherish these paintings for years to come!
