Hi there! I’m available for commissions if you’re looking to have your pet painted–and it’s not just limited to cats! Dogs, bunnies, reptiles, horses, etc–anything cute and crawly is more than welcome! Human portraits are also more than welcome.

I don’t just do portraits, either. If you have a project you’re working on and need a creative partner, please let me know! I would love to help with your projects, anything from book illustrations to concept art and sketches.

Please email me at nskiver@gmail.com with any inquiries~

The commission process:

  1. Contact me with your idea. If it’s a portrait, I will need at least two decent quality photos emailed to me that I can work from. We can discuss sizing, timelines, pricing, and your specifications.
  2. I will work up a sketch to show you within 3 days. Let me know any changes you would like. This is the stage at which I will send an invoice and payment is due (through Paypal).
  3. The final painting will be done within 2 weeks, unless it is an exceptionally large painting or project in which case the time frame will be longer. I will let you know when we discuss sizing.
  4. I will show you a photo of the completed painting.
  5. Painting is mailed to you, protected and wrapped 🙂 enjoy!
