Hi, I’m Bethany Rachel

Hi, I'm Bethany Rachel, a Pet Portrait Artist based in Staffordshire, UK. I create custom artwork that celebrates the unique personality, spirit, and charm of the animals we love most.

My journey as an artist began from a very young age drawing with my Grandad who used to draw Illustrations during WW2. Art was the only subject in school I exceeded most in, it always just felt right! I went on to achieve my GCSE in Fine Arts with grade A as well as Level! Over the years, I've combined my passion for art with my lifelong love of animals, creating portraits that help pet owners preserve treasured memories and honour the special bond they share with their companions.

Every pet has a story, and my goal is to capture more than just a likeness. Whether it's the playful sparkle in their eyes, their loyal expression, or the little quirks that make them unforgettable, I strive to create artwork that feels personal, meaningful, and full of life.

I work primarily in Soft Pastel & Oil Based Coloured pencil, carefully crafting each portrait from your favourite photographs. Every commission is created with attention to detail, patience, and genuine appreciation for the pets that inspire it.

When I'm not in my studio, you'll usually find me with my own Pup, Tod! An adorable Chocolate Labradoodle who would do anything for a slice of cheese! As an 11 year old, he is now slowing down and enjoys a good cuddle compared to his usual long walks in the Staffordshire Countryside.

Thank you for visiting my website and considering me to create a portrait of your beloved pet. It is a privilege to turn your memories into artwork that can be cherished for years to come.

I'd love to hear your pet's story and help bring their personality to life through art!
