A chance Twitter encounter brought illustrator Alexandra Rolfe to my attention and seeing how she shares the same first name as me she was already off to a good start. After clicking through to her website where I spied her lovely pet portraits her fate was sealed – I like her style!
An indulgent purchase for yourself or a gift for the animal lover in your life, Alexandra takes a photo of your chosen dog and mixes traditional methods including watercolour and detailed pen work, with digital enhancement to translate their unique personality into a unique piece of art. Should you have no dog to call your own, she also sells existing designs to bring some puppy-love to your home.
Reasonably priced for an original piece of art, pet portraits are £50 for A4 colour and £70 for A3 in colour. Additional elements such as an added pet or background are extra, and prices exclude postage and packaging. For more information and further examples of Alexandra's work, visit AlexandraRolfe.com.
