An enormous surprise arrived the other day! Erin Rea of Modern Pet Portraits sent me a beautiful custom illustration of little Miss Rory and I couldn’t be more thrilled with it! Erin’s work is bold, vibrant, graphic and playful — all of my favourite things! Her exquisite artistic interpretations of our animal better halves come to life against their loud patterned backgrounds and are the perfect way to capture your pet’s unique quirky nature. I adore the modern yet retro feel of Rory’s portrait, the polka-dots in particular — it is so our style!
 
 

What makes Erin’s work even more unique, however, is that she makes pet portraits into all sorts of fun, fashionable products including cell phone cases (both iPhone and Android!), playing cards and throw pillows. What great gift ideas for modern pet parents!

 
 

The artistry and devotion to character that resides in each individual piece is truly astonishing. I would highly recommend popping over to Modern Pet Portraits and taking a look around (especially at the ‘before‘ photos and ‘after‘ art examples). I think you’ll be just as ‘wowed’ as I was! A huge thank you once again to Erin for her incredibly kind gift. I can’t tell you how moved I was by this very special gesture. You have captured Rory’s personality beautifully, right down to her extremely expressive eyebrows! I know this will be an item that I cherish forever.
