Amazing pet portraits from photos
Dog portraits, cat portraits,horse portraits or whatever!
You may have several pets that you want painted, or a special pet that is no longer with you. I always say , do the one first, that pulls your heart strings the most. Just gather your photos . It helps me capture the essence of you pet with more photos to draw from. I like to lay out your photos while painting them, it helps me getting in touch with their spirit. Be sure that your pets gestures are normal. If all the photos are with ears pinned back , how do I know that it is a normal gesture. You need to let me know how your pet looks normally. It is helpful to have six or more photos. If your photos are dear to you, please make copies of your originals and send me the copies.

The size of your pet portrait
Decide where your portrait will be hung . Will it be the featured painting in your home on a large wall , sort of like a pop icon painting or a smaller size in a group of paintings. The decision is yours. I can do whatever you want. To help you with this decision , one may cut out the given sizes 12x15 ,16x20 ,24x30 , or 32x40 inches in newspaper and hang and tape it in the desired spot and see how it makes and balences your decorating decore. If you have many pets that you may want to hang in a group, the 12x15 inch size is great creating your special tribute gallery.

PHOTOGRAPHING YOUR PET
____________________________________
All portraits begin with great photographs. With an abundance of photographs, I can capture the essence of your pet.Photograph your pet at eye level. It is more personal. Focus on your pets head. I don't need a full body shot for thier head. It is important that I can see the details of your pet, not a silhouette where, there is no definition. I need to see the shapes to paint them.
If your pet is camera shy or a short attention span, photograph a few shots daily until you get it. You can have a person standing behind the photographer holding a treat to coax them to perk up their ears and illuminate their eyes. I like to layout several photos of your pet while Im painting their portrait.
After you have photographed your pet, Gather your photos and send them to me.You may send me digital files as a j-pegs to jessica@jessicakolesar.com. You might have 4x6 inch prints, color xeroxs, or digital files on a cd.
You may mail those files to the address below.
Please mail files to:

How to hang paintings
The secret to hanging anything, are two hooks.
It stabalizes your object to prevent shifting from side to side. making your painting or object stable squarly hung.
Living in a earth quake area like southern California , the more hooks the better.I lost some frames from the La earthquake after being thrown off the wall. Also if you are displaying glass objects on slelves , you may apply double sided sticky tape to hold down onto the shelf.
When aquiring new art you may want to rearrange and regroup your art. Make sure you have the right size hooks for the approriate weight of what you are hanging. The sturdier hook is always better.
How to decide where to hang the items in your group.
Cut out newspaper squares in the size of paintings.Tape them on the wall rearranging you paintings group.
When satisfied , start hanging the wall hooks and paintings.
