100k ish, and will increase as you get more details and intense color. These feel a bit washed out, like an old photo. |

Oh wow... I love the 2nd one! I'm terrible at pricing things, unfortunately... |

Pricing-wise, I would pay 25k-35k for these. Personally, I don't feel like these are actually "pet portraits" because you're just painting over/smudging a pre-existing photo, and parts of the original photo are still clearly visible in the finished product. They're great and all, don't get me wrong, but I think advertising them as portraits is a little misleading because essentially all you're doing is retouching the photo and giving it a different, more smudgy finish, so it's more of an editing service, not a portrait painting service. These are just my thoughts, I'm in no way trying to shoot these down or stop you from doing them, just giving an honest opinion :) |

Rather than painting over the photos, I would love to see them done completely from scratch using the photo only as a reference. I think that would spur a lot more interest, and it would make it much more personal and portray more of your style as an artist :) |
