I would like to write a few words about this talented lady & her amazing work. As Katie has said from left to right this is our girls Zara, Rosie & Tess, sadly Rosie is no longer with us but in some way Katie has brought her back & I can't tell you how lovely it is to be able to look at her face again every day. If anyone is thinking of having a portrait done of their pets we highly recommend you contact Katie, if you go further down this page you will see the comparison shots that Katie has gone by & see how fantastic they are. Katie & I were in contact all the time & she was very patient & let me tell you she needed to be with me, she made any changes I asked of her. We how have a lovely portrait of our girls on the wall in pride of place for everyone to see, thank you so much Katie Xx

"I recently commissioned Katie for an A3 portrait of my Brother-in-law’s two kittens. I was so incredibly impressed with how she captured their likeness and personalities on paper, just from a single photo. The commissioning process was seamless and actually really exciting, as she kept me up-to-date with photos of her progress at every stage. I would highly recommend Katie for any pet or wildlife portrait, the final product was beautiful, high quality and my Brother-in-law absolutely loved it!"

"My Mum had always wanted a Great Dane when she was growing up, and she became firm friends with Harley.
Sadly, Harley died suddenly at just 18 months, and she was so upset by it.
So I came up with the idea of getting Katie to produce a picture of her, so Mum could always remember her.
I'd seen some of Katie's work, so I felt completely reassured that she'd get the likeness just right. When discussing it with her, Katie also came up with the great idea of a puppy and an adult picture in the same frame.
So Christmas Day came, and she was unwrapping the present. The final layer was actually tissue paper, and even before that came off, she clearly recognised what she was seeing, and immediately started welling up (in a good way!)
It made such an impact, and was such a personal gift,and it sits framed in pride of place in the lounge!
I haven't told Katie yet, but she wants to get another picture done of her St Bernard for her birthday (she likes big dogs!)
As a side note, I also had a similar commission for my girlfriend's aunt, who was visiting the UK for Christmas from the States. And again, her reaction was immediate and emotional! She too said it was a wonderful gift, and it helped remind her of her lovely dog back home."

"Katie did a wonderful job and sent updates along way. Her eyes are full of life in the drawing and capture her personality perfectly."

"Jilly was a very special dog and Katie's drawing of her captured beautifully her distinctive character, her warmth and charm. It brought tears to our eyes. The picture has pride of place on the wall of our lounge."

I asked Katie for a drawing for my girlfriend's birthday as I love her work. I sent a few images of our 5 bunnies and was amazed that she was able to capture their personalities in the one picture. She was polite and responsive to messages and sent regular updates of how everything was going. The commission was completed sooner than I expected and both my girlfriend and I are so happy with how it turned out. I would definitely recommend Katie if you're wanting a beautiful picture of your fluffy family members.

Katie has created several images for me over the past few years and they have all been excellent. I have received some as gifts and given others as gifts too. Both the givers and the receivers have been over the moon as Katie not only captures a physical likeness but the character of the pets too.
