3cmx3cm graphite miniature (enlargement shown)

Precision, paper magic and pencil power:



graphite art


There is nothing like a pencil for delivering the subtlest of nuances and the finest detail in any image, all the more if the image happens to be of a living being. Hence, it is by far my favoured tool for bringing to life unique pieces of art, purposely created to reach out and reflect loud and clear that intimate, rock-solid bond between people and their pets.



Animal Portraits by Gabriel




In this day and age, where taking simple photographs is so easy for

everyone, a hand-drawn picture of the animal that you love is quite

special. It is elegant and refined and, most of all, absolutely unique.

Whether it be cat or dog, horse, dragon or budgie, you can book and

commission his/her portrait with ease following the indications provided

here below:


- choose a good quality photograph of your pet

- UPLOAD IT HERE:  Pet Portrait Commission Form 

- include his/her exact name spelled in capitals along with your own

  name and address

- you will receive a reply email stating whether the photo is good enough

  to work with and the amount of time to wait in the commissions queue



You can then decide to proceed with booking your pet's place in the

queue. Do keep in mind that each portrait requires time and attention.

graphite on paper - June 2015

To officially book your pet in the queue, a third of the final fee is

required. The total cost of one portrait is 150,00 euros (which

for European countries includes shipping costs and delivery by courier),

hence the booking fee is 50,00 euros per portrait.


The booking fee is non-refundable and the completion of 

the cost shall be sent at the latest 4 working days after viewing the

emailed, umprintable image of the completed portrait. This is to ensure

that the commissioner is entirely satisfied with the purchase. Should this

not be, for any reason, the artist shall keep the work done and is entitled

to sell it or do with the work as he wishes at any time, prior removal of

the name of the animal, if indicated in any way, and after the above

mentioned 4 working days.
