COMMISSION A PET PORTRAIT
My pet and wildlife portraits are created on a commission basis for individuals around the world. I specialize in highly detailed, realistic-style pastel pencil drawings of all types of animals, from your furry family members to stunning wildlife and every other beautiful creature in between.

"Derek drew the most perfect portrait of our dog Kilo. He was able to capture every feature perfectly, including Kilo's sweeet, gentle eyes, curly hair, and playful bandana. The portrait brings us joy and happy memories every time we look at it. Thank you Derek for such a beautiful, special piece of art!"

"Working with Derek on a custom Brook trout painting was an incredible experience from start to finish. I gave him my ideas, and he really took the time to understand my vision. The final piece is absolutely perfect-it's exacly what I wanted and even more beautiful than I imaginied. His attention to detail and ability to capture emotion in his work is truly remarkable. I highly recommend Derek to anyone looking for a unique and meaningful piece of art."

"I reached out to Derek for a portrait of our dog Moose, who had passed away earlier this year. Derek didn't take this request lightly. He went above and beyond to make sure his work was perfect in every way. Every detail-from the sparkle in his eyes, the stitching on his collar, to the tilt of his ears, and the texture of his fur-was done with such care and talent. It's clear Derek pours his heart into his work. Moose's portrait is something that I hold dear to my heart, and for that I am grateful."
