It is your cat
The pattern in the coat, the set of the ears, the colour of the eyes: the portrait follows the photo, not a template. Anyone who knows your cat recognises her from across the room.
Custom cat portraits
A cat portrait from your own photo
One photo of your cat is enough. We compose the portrait in the style you choose, you judge it before you pay, and five working days later it hangs — printed on 308 g/m² Hahnemühle cotton paper, frame included.
Why here
A cat is not an average cat
Sixty styles, one gaze
From Rembrandt gold to a single unbroken line. Every style was tested on cats — coat, gaze and posture — before it went on the wall.
You see it beforehand
No surprise at the door: you judge the portrait before you pay for anything. We print only after your approval, in pigment ink, with every sheet checked by hand.
The unveiling
From kitchen photo to masterpiece
On the left the photo you send us, on the right what the atelier makes of it. Slide the beam of light and judge for yourself.
“The Poet” — from this home photo
The collection
Styles that flatter a cat
Six of sixty — chosen because they draw the most out of a cat’s face. The whole wall hangs further on.
What you send
The photo a cat portrait deserves
I
At eye level
Get down on your knees. A cat photographed from above becomes a cat with a small body and a large head — in every style.
II
Daylight from the side
By the window, without flash. Side light draws the whiskers and the gleam in the eyes; a flash turns every eye into a green disc.
III
The head large in the frame
Come close or crop the photo. We need the eyes sharp, not the whole sofa.

Questions about the cat portrait
Yes — that is the whole commission. The portrait is built from your photo, with the pattern of the coat, the shape of the head and the colour of the eyes as fixed anchors. We judge every preview for likeness before you see it, and you approve it yourself.
A photo in which the head is sharp, nothing more. Wait for the moment she watches something outside or has just eaten; a burst of ten phone photos always yields one that works.
Certainly. A black cat asks for a photo in good daylight so the coat keeps its detail; a white cat for light without harsh sun. If in doubt, send the photo in — we will tell you honestly whether it gives enough to work with.
Yes. Many portraits are made precisely in remembrance. For those requests we keep a quieter room of our own — the memorial portrait.
For the cat who is no longer here, we keep a quieter room of our own.
