Gentle Paws Portrait Giveaway

I've been sitting on this idea for months now, and I'm finally ready to share something that's been tugging at my heartstrings.

Starting October, I'm going to be giving away one A4 wall art print of a customer's beloved dog each month - completely free, straight from my heart to yours. 

Over the years, I've received so many beautiful enquiries about commissioned dog portraits. While I'm incredibly flattered that people want me to capture their furry family members, I've always hesitated to turn it into a paid service. You see, the moment something becomes a transaction, I worry I might lose that special connection that makes my art meaningful. When I'm creating from a place of love rather than obligation, that's when the magic happens.

I see it all the time at markets and in our little shop. Someone will pick up one of my prints - especially the ones with Daisy and Minnie - and I watch their whole face change. Sometimes there are tears in their eyes as they remember their fur baby. Sometimes it's pure joy lighting up their expression. In those quiet moments, I'm reminded of just how powerful that connection can be when art comes from a genuine place.

That's exactly why I want to do this as a gift.

Every month, I'll be choosing one special pup to illustrate. If you'd like to have your fur baby in a print, please send me your picture and story here. I will be reading every single story that you sent through. Each story will inspire me to create something unique and heartfelt. Because sometimes the best gifts are the ones that come from the heart, with no strings attached.
