Love Them FURever!

I specialize in dog portraits, but I also love painting cats, horses, and even people! Upload your photos and I'll use them for inspiration to paint a beautiful custom pet portrait. The final art will be on stretched artist canvas and delivered to your door ready-to-hang.

Each Portrait Is Painted by Me

I'm Steve Merryman. For over 40 years I created successful, award-winning graphic design and illustration for corporate clients.

But what I really love to do is paint critters.

That's why I created PetArtWorks.

Helping pet lovers celebrate and memorialize their pets is my passion. And I've found it's far more satisfying than my previous career..

Watch me paint a portrait!

Here's a screen-capture video of my painting process. I paint digitally using a Wacom Cintiq monitor and Corel Painter software.

This dog portrait was created for the 2020 Spokane Pet Expo Cutest Pet contest winner.

Video length: 4 and a half minutes.
