Welcome to my commissions page!

Thank you for showing an interest in considering me for your commission. 

​

Hello, I'm Michelle, I am an England, UK based artist, dedicated to capturing the beauty of animals through realistic painting techniques. My journey has seen me transition from pastels to watercolours, a shift that has deepened my connection to my passion. From beloved pets, farm animals, to the wonders of wildlife, my subjects reflect the love for the beauty of nature.

​

We all adore our pets  and my custom pet portraits, make the perfect gift to remember a special friend. The pet portraits can be created in a range of sizes I provide listed below.

​

I specialise in using professional watercolour paints, Fabriano Artistico and Arches watercolour paper. 

​

If you are in search of a timeless piece of art that captures the essence of your beloved pet or the majesty of wildlife, you can trust me to suit your needs.

As an artist dedicated to realism, I take extra care into every composition, ensuring it's not just a painting but a fine art piece to be cherished forever.

Whether you're seeking a heartfelt gift for a loved one or a special painting for yourself, I'm here to bring your vision to life.

Let me craft a beautiful and unique masterpiece that will stand the test of time. Together, we'll collaborate to ensure the final piece will be perfect and that will resonate with your heart and soul.

Beautiful commission created by Michelle N White, capturing our Jack Russell's bright and lively character. The colours used in the eyes are a wonderful likeness. We have many hours of pleasure admiring this painting. Simon G

KB, UK

I am really pleased with the two paintings of our family dogs, that Michelle has created. She has truly managed to capture not only their physical likeness but their characters as well. I am very impressed and I am sure that my children will love them too.

Michelle kept in touch with me during the creation of the paintings and sent me drafts as she progressed to completion which was really helpful.

She also gave me excellent advice relating to the frames.

This is something I have been thinking about doing for some time and Michelle was exactly the right person to paint our pets.
