From photo to artwork
How Portrapet works
Four steps, one photo, and a piece of art made from your pet. Here is exactly what happens after you click order.
Pick a style
Watercolor, Sketch, Painting, Pop Art or Graffiti. Each one treats your pet’s features differently, so choose the look that fits your room.
Upload a photo
One clear photo is all we need. Front-facing, good light, eyes visible. Our photo guidelines cover what works.
We create the artwork
Our artists cut out your pet, build the portrait in your chosen style and check it by eye before anything is printed.
It ships to your door
Printed, packed and sent with tracking. You get the tracking link by email as soon as the parcel leaves us.
Choose how it lives in your home
The same artwork can be printed three ways. You pick the format on the product page.
Premium Poster
Printed on premium poster stock in 8×10, 11×14 or 16×20 inches. Frame it yourself with any standard frame.
Framed Art Print
The same print delivered ready to hang in a 1" frame, in black or white. Available in the same three sizes.
Comfort Colors T-Shirt
Your pet’s portrait printed on a heavyweight Comfort Colors tee, sizes S to 4XL in a wide range of garment colours.
How long it takes
Two clocks run one after the other: the time we spend making your artwork, then the time the courier spends delivering it.
| Stage | Time | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Production | 2–4 business days | Artwork created, checked and printed |
| Delivery — USA | 4–8 business days | Standard shipping, Monday to Friday |
| Delivery — EU, Canada, NZ, Australia | 7–14 business days | International standard shipping |
These two stages add together. A US order placed today typically arrives within 6–12 business days. Full detail on the shipping page.
