Wooden Dog Portraits

Celebrate your dog with a completely one-of-a-kind piece of handcrafted wood art. Each portrait is individually designed from your photographs and carefully constructed using hand-cut, shaped, layered, pieces of pallet wood.

Pallet wood variations and imperfections become part of the finished artwork, giving every portrait its own unique character. I carefully recreate your dog’s coloring, facial features, markings, expression, and personality while transforming them into a dimensional geometric design.

We can create portraits of any dog breed in any size

Custom Pricing

Portraits begin at $170.

The final price depends on:

  • Finished portrait size
  • Coat texture and length
  • Number of colors and markings
  • Complexity of the dog’s facial features

Smooth-coated dogs with simple coloring generally fall near the starting price. Curly, fluffy, wiry, brindle, heavily marked, or highly detailed dogs require additional design and cutting time and will be quoted accordingly.

How Custom Ordering Works

  1. Submit the custom portrait request form with several clear photographs of your dog and any individual requests. 
  2. I’ll review the photographs and recommend the best size and detail level.
  3. You’ll receive an exact quote before any payment is required.
  4. Once the quote is approved, you’ll receive a secure Shopify invoice.
  5. Your portrait will be individually designed, cut, assembled, stained, and finished by hand.

     

Estimated production time: 6 days                  (shipping can be estimated at checkout)
Available sizes: 18" x 18" or larger
Hanging hardware: Wall brackets, ready to hang.

Because every portrait is handmade from reclaimed material, wood will vary slightly. These differences are part of what makes each piece completely unique.
