Etsy shop Hot Digital Dog offers very cool Victorian prints that they digitize your dog into {above} for $50 and while I love the idea {and just may do it} I really would love a thickly textured painted version like the old Victorian originals.
I also found these Ancestral Victorian Canine : Classic Art Reproductions which are fantastic and more what I’m looking for but are not our dogs. I think if they had a Pug & a French Bulldog I would consider them …but they don’t.


So this is a call to any artists/oil painters who may be reading this who may be interested in commissioning a work or two {8″ x 10″ or larger} for us …and if so, would you kindly email me your rates & sample or your work to lovemaegan@gmail.com
*** UPDATE: Thanks to all who have emailed me regarding these portraits. CLICK HERE to see how artist Luke Jervis transformed LeRoy and Bebop into regal Victorian Dogs!

Those are very cute! We had a framed pic of my childhood dog, but it was just a blown up 4X6.

Very cute idea… if you are looking for someone to paint the pictures for you, you can always put a request on the etsy alchemy site for what you are looking for and vendors will bid on your project. It’s a great way to find custom pieces.
Good luck!

This is doubly hilarious because a friend of mine just requested this same thing – I referred her to Etsy Alchemy. It’s where you can request such an item and people can “bid” for your request. You can review their portfolio and everything before you decide. Needless to say she had her dog painted as a MadMen character and loves it!
