Please Click Here to view the selection of commissioned paintings for some ideas of what other animal lovers have had commissioned in the past. No idea is too far out for Lori Faye Bock. Anything your heart desires!

Her strength as an artist is capturing the spirit, humor and personality of your animal. She does not paint portraits .... as she is not a photo-realistic painter. You will however, see likenesses and similarities of your companion pet.

Before you contact Lori Faye Bock, think about what you want her to accomplish for you.

Ask yourself these questions:

1. What is my budget? (Note: commission pieces start at $2000 and can run the gamut.)
2. What size do I want and is there a particular shape that best suits my needs and desires?
3. Do I want a painting on paper that can be framed with glass ..... or do I want a painting on baltic birch panel with no glass?
4. If I choose baltic birch panel, do I want to frame the painting or have it mounted on a two or three inch deep punnet box where the painting is continued around the sides and is three dimensional? (Note: These pieces are either waxed or varnished to protect the acrylic paint.)

Commissions generally take from 6 to 8 weeks depending upon the complexity of your painting.

To begin your commission, Lori Faye Bock needs to have several photographs or digitals sent via email from you along with a brief biography of your pet ... and you too if you like! After she receives your information, she will either email or call you to conceptualize some ideas and suggestions for your painting.

An update of your commission painting in progress will be sent via email upon your request.

Prior to shipping your painting, Lori Faye Bock will email a digital photo or 35 mm if need be for your approval.

If you would like to commission Lori Faye Bock to paint a whimsical, charming and endearing work of your beloved cat or dog to enjoy for life ... a tribute to your best friend, please email her at: info@lorifayebock.com to discuss the particulars. (She paints other animals in addition to cats and dogs).

(Note: A 50% deposit enables Lori Faye Bock to begin your commissioned painting. After your approval, she will happily pack, insure and ship your work of art after the balance due is received. You may also make arrangements with her to pick up your painting at her studio in Abiquiu, New Mexico).

Lori Faye Bock would love to know where you saw her work!
