About Dog Artist Penny Richardson

I have over 30 years’ experience as a professional dog artist.
I works in a variety of painting mediums that include gouache watercolour, soft pastel, acrylic and oil. These enable me to capture dog portrait paintings in fine detail with a rich use of colour, giving a tremendous amount of realism.

If you would like to commission me to paint a portrait for you, please telephone me on 07884198748 or email your favourite photos with any ideas you might have regarding the painting you would like.
I will then look at your specific requirements and either discuss by phone or send you an email with a written quotation which will be tailored to your request.

I have been a Pet Artist painting quality pet portraits for over 30 years. Along with my husband John we have an Art Gallery & also a Bespoke Picture Framing Service in Exton in Rutland, the smallest county in the United Kingdom.

I was born in Harrogate in North Yorkshire and started my career as a Pet Artist painting Pet Portraits on my father's Farm, at Cold Overton near Melton Mowbray, Leicestershire, after leaving Loughborough Art College in 1984.

I have a long history of artists in my family line. My mother studied at the Harrogate School of Art. In the second World War she was a red cross nurse and she sketched and painted many scenes from that era and time depicting the life and activities of ordinary people at their workplace i.e. nursing, fire service, trams and dockyard scenes etc.

I love painting pet portraits & I am very passionate about my work. My aim is to achieve the best quality pet portraits that have a realistic likeness to your animal. I have been commissioned from all over the UK and many commissions abroad. I am very happy to take on international commissions and have recently shipped four paintings to Alaska.
I was once commissioned by Sir Henry Tate to paint the Cottesmore Hunt opening meet at Preston Lodge. I am also an accomplished architectural, landscape and floral painter.

If you like my style of work and would be interested in a commission, please contact me on 07884 198748, or via the online contact form.
