About Melanie & Nicholas Pet Portraits

---

Melanie Phillips and Nicholas Beall are professional UK-based artists offering bespoke pet portraits in pencil and oil. Working from their garden studio in rural Wales, they create highly detailed, hand-drawn and hand-painted portraits of dogs, cats, and horses for clients worldwide. With over 30 years’ experience and more than 850 commissions completed since 1993, their work is known for its warmth, realism, and timeless style.

Each pet portrait is created entirely by hand using traditional methods. Whether in graphite pencil or oil on canvas, every piece is a one-of-a-kind representation of the pet's character and charm. Clients can commission individual head studies, full-body portraits, or multi-subject compositions.

Melanie and Nicholas also offer framing advice and gift packing for the portraits along with gift vouchers and free photography sessions. Presentation and packaging are handled with great care, especially for gifts and memorials.

Portraits are booked on a first-come, first-served basis, and both artists operate with a waiting list. Clients looking for a thoughtful gift can order beautifully presented gift voucher boxes, ideal for birthdays, Christmas, or memorial tributes.
