Andrea Knowles
West Yorkshire
Are you tired of mundane pet portraits? Bored of beige backgrounds and lack-lustre brushstrokes? Fear not! Andrea is the Picasso of Paws, the Monet of Muzzles and the Rembrandt on Ruffs!
Andrea enjoys experimenting with different methods. She has three distinct styles that she offers for commissions: a realistic coloured pencil style, a contemporary vibrant watercolour painting and a contemporary scribble style drawn with coloured pencils and fine-liners. All of the materials she uses are professional artist quality.
Each of Andrea's animal portraits are meticulously hand-drawn with intricate detail, which not only preserves their likeness but also freezes a cherished moment in time, ensuring that the memories live on through her art.
Once she has completed your portrait Andrea can have it printed on different giftware such as cushions, notepads, mugs and coasters too.
Andrea won the Dogs Today magazine Pet Pawtrait competition in 2022, with her vibrant watercolour painting of a rescue dog Fleur. and her Sumatran Tiger drawing was featured in the 2024 July's edition of Ann Kullberg's Color magazine, an International magazine showcasing coloured pencil artists.

"I knew when I saw Andrea Knowles beautiful artwork I just had to have my adorable Staffy painted. Andrea hand paints her drawings from a photo you provide. Her eye for detail is amazing, his whiskers, the shape of his white bib on his chest is so alike, I love it.
I have never had a dog portrait, and now I am smitten. His picture is just beautiful, she has captured his personality so well, the way he looks at you so seriously, yet so soft.
Love my Ray – my beautiful mad Staffy. I love his picture just as equally. Thank you Andrea. You have made working from home with a beautiful piece of artwork on the wall all the more pleasurable."
