SPECIALIST IN PET PORTRAITURE, LEAF AND BOTTLE PAINTING
ABOUT ME
My name is Karly-Martine and I am from the beautiful East Devon Coast!
I specialise in Pet and People Portraiture, and this is an area of my work which I absolutely adore. Being able to draw your beloved animals and family members is such a rewarding feeling, and there is nothing better than having the opportunity to re-create memories that will last a lifetime. I love to work with headshots, full body or can completely recreate a scene or a moment.
Working mainly with coloured and graphite pencils, I use the highest quality materials to ensure that your portraits will stay bright and bold for years to come, and by using acid-free mount frames, this also improves the longevity of your piece, as well as looking after our environment. Speaking of which, I aim to make sure every piece is wrapped and packaged with fully recyclable and eco-friendly materials. Doing my bit to look after our planet is something I am very passionate about, especially in regard to my business, so please re-use your packaging!
