Held & Hugged – A Soft Portrait Story

Custom Stuffed Animal Illustration

A worn ear, a stitched paw, a well-loved stuffed animal—this is your invitation to turn that treasured companion into illustrated magic.

Each original watercolor portrait is painted on 9x12 inch paper in my signature style, with the illustration thoughtfully centered and surrounded by soft white space.

After purchase, I’ll email you directly with details on how to submit your photo, share your stuffed animal’s story, and complete a final sign-off before painting begins.

Limited commissions available - each well-loved companion will be illustrated on a first come, first served basis.

Portraits are of stuffed animals only

Name of stuffed animal and artist signature will be on the back of the illustration unless requested otherwise.

No edits, refunds, or exchanges after commission is purchased/confirmed.

Available to U.S. customers only and shipped via USPS Priority Mail in 4-6 weeks.
