How wonderful would it be to have a custom pet portrait of your dog in this embroidered style? Embroidery is a time-consuming art form, so, artist Emillie Ferris, only creates and sells five of them every one or two months. It takes two to six weeks to complete one piece, which translates to each hoop taking between 13 to 18 hours. The price for such a personal piece of art isn’t cheap, each portrait costs £248 plus shipping.
As Ferris states on her website, “Each hoop is made by yours truly, and although I wish I could give every single one of you a custom slot at once (and grow 10 more hands, hehe), I’m afraid there is only so much work I can take on. Please do not be disappointed if you miss out on a slot, as I aim to release spaces as regularly as I can.”
I wish I could have two of these, one for each of my Cavalier King Charles, Fozzie and Charlie. They look ultra-realistic, don’t they? It’s nice to read some of her client’s feedback. As one states, “I wanted to gush some more, because it’s mesmerizing. I love how wavy it is around his cheeks, and I love how the white is like spilling up his forehead. I love how you got the details in his irises and how there’s a shine in the pupils. And I love the patterns in his fur and how they make you want to pet his face. I’ve really never seen work like this and I’m extremely grateful to have one of my best friend. Hank is my once-in-a-lifetime dog and I’m just so happy that I’ll always have this.”
