Portrait Session Specifics
Each portrait is designed to become a lasting piece of fine art—hand-crafted on canvas, brush - stroked, and framed to museum standards. Sessions are limited to two or three each month to preserve the time and focus that every animal (and their people) deserve.

Guild Canvas Artwork

See “The Experience” page for more information about Guild Canvas process.
Investment
Guild Canvas artwork begins around $600 for smaller pieces, with most collectors investing between $1,500 and $5,000 for their finished artwork. Final investment varies based on canvas size, the level of painterly finishing, and frame selection.
Every portrait receives thoughtful design guidance to ensure it displays with intention and harmony within your home. From surface texture to custom framing, each choice is tailored to your aesthetic preferences.
Your booking fee includes a personal planning consultation, the photographic session, and a $500 artwork credit toward one museum-quality Guild Canvas in your chosen size. You may select a smooth or painterly surface, add hand-painted finishing, and choose a frame or a clean, unframed presentation.
Shipping fees are dependent on size and will be estimated at the time of purchase.
Additional images may be commissioned at any time. Canvas sizes range from intimate 8×10 pieces to statement artworks up to 70 inches in length.
Please reach out for a complimentary conversation about your portrait.
