# Your pet deserves a portrait.

Page: https://www.classicalpetpaintings.com/about

We are a small team. We thought the best photo of your dog or cat should not live only on a phone. So we built a way to turn it into a painting, see it on your wall, and have it framed, in the time it takes to make coffee.

## Who we are.

A painting that looks like it belongs in a gilt frame, keeps every marking that makes your animal yours, and arrives in one to two weeks.

PetPaintings started with a simple frustration. A commissioned portrait takes weeks and hundreds of dollars. The cheap alternatives make your pet look like someone else's. We wanted the middle path.

The way we get there is new, and we are upfront about it. Real artists design every style, and we pay them a royalty on every sale. The painting of your pet is then generated by an image model tuned around one rule: change the paint, never the pet. Eyes, ears, fur pattern, the crooked whisker, and the proportions of the face all stay. The file goes to our print partner, Printful (Prodigi for the Fine-art print and the Luxury canvas), which prints it, frames it, and ships it to you.

We check whether the portrait looks like your pet before it is printed. That is the whole job.

- Not hand-painted, and not marketed as if it were.
- Not a days-long wait for a proof. Previews take seconds.
- Not a warehouse of stock. Every piece is made after you order.
- Not interested in your original photo beyond making the portrait. It never goes to the print lab.

## How it works.

1. **Upload**: One clear photo of your pet, straight from your phone. Location data is stripped on arrival.
2. **Preview, if you want to**: Verify your email with a magic link and see up to four styles in seconds, free. Or skip it and order straight from the photo.
3. **Print and ship**: Pick a size and frame, pay, and we render the final at 4K, send it to the lab, and email you tracking when it ships.

## The styles.

Each built to keep your pet recognizable. More are on the way.

## Quality, and our guarantee.

What you are paying for, and what happens if it is not right.

### Giclée, not a poster

Pigment inks on archival fine-art paper, the same process galleries use for reproductions. Colors stay put for decades out of direct sun.

### Real wood frames

Black, white, or natural wood mouldings with protective glazing and hanging hardware fitted. Unbox it and hang it.

### Rendered for print, not for screens

The preview you see is a small draft. After payment the portrait is re-rendered at 4K and sized to your frame at 300 dpi.

### Checked before it prints

Each final is compared against your original photo before it goes to the lab. If the likeness drifts, it gets re-done, not shipped.

### Free reprint or refund

Arrives damaged, misprinted, or not matching the preview you approved? Email us a photo and we reprint it at no cost or refund you. No forms.

### Made to order, so no returns

Every piece is produced for one specific pet, so we cannot take returns once production starts. The guarantee above is how we make that fair.

## Shipping, briefly.

Tracked, and out the door in 2 to 5 business days.

### US, EU, UK, Canada, Australia

We ship to all 50 states, the 27 countries of the European Union, the United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia. Each piece is made in the region it goes to, so there is no customs charge on delivery.

### The lab's own shipping rate

Shown at checkout before you pay; US orders over $100 ship free, except oversize pieces. Digital files are free to deliver, instantly.

### Out the door in 2 to 5 business days

Then 4 to 6 business days to arrive. Tracking arrives by email the moment the lab hands it to the carrier.

## For the ones we love.

A portrait says what a card cannot. For a birthday, a holiday, or a goodbye.

### Ship it straight to them

Put their address at checkout. Confirmation and tracking go to you, so nothing spoils the surprise.

### For pets who have passed

Many of our portraits are memorials. A favorite old photo, even a slightly blurry one, often works better than you expect.

### Running late? Send the digital file

Add the 4K digital download in your cart for $2.99. It is on your order page within minutes of payment. Send it as a preview of the framed piece on its way, or gift it on its own.

### Not sure which style they would like?

Preview a few and pick. 18th Century Royalty is the safe crowd-pleaser. Pop is for the friend with the loud kitchen.
