Looking for an Amazing Pet Artist?

My friend Di—who has an adorable bulldog named Ozzy—has been raving about a talented pet artist named Rory Mackay, who recently completed a gorgeous portrait of her beloved dog. I have to say, I was incredibly impressed by Rory's work...not to mention, he's an unbelievably nice guy.

How Rory works is, he either uses a pre-existing photograph (if you have one that’s sentimental to you) or he arranges a time to come to your apartment or house and do a photo shoot with your pet. He’ll select the best 20-30 images from the 150 he usually takes and will send them to you so that you can choose your favorite. He will then work/paint from that particular photograph and will even update you with images of the painting at various stages to make sure it’s in keeping with your vision. (Clearly, your dog isn't going to be down with posing for hours. Hence, why Rory works off of photographs.)
One thing that’s so great about his work is that he uses bespoke measurements and will go with whatever canvas size and material you’d like. So, you’re getting exactly what you want. Be sure to look out for a feature on Rory and his pet portraits in the October issue of Quest Magazine!
