Claire has done a portrait of my husband's dog for his 40th birthday which I received yesterday. I am absolutely delighted! I was positive that Claire would do an amazing portrait but couldn't quite believe how brilliant and life-like the picture would be. Not only is the portrait precision perfect but also incredibly somehow shows the character of the dog. A very talented lady and a pleasure to deal with!
"I recently had a portrait of one of my cats painted by Claire; and the detailed and sympathetic way she has captured his particular character is truly astonishing. The texture and colours of his coat are so finely and delicately achieved as to make him come alive on the canvas. As a pet artist Claire is unique." GB Chalford
“Dear Mrs. Stallard, Julie and Dick J gave us the most gorgeous gift; the portrait you painted of our dog Dodger. We can hardly imagine that you are not a very close friend of Dodgers since you have been able to capture his essence and personality so perfectly. The portrait will always have a place of honor in our home. Thank you so much.” Mary Anne and Rick Dobbis USA.

“Our two precious Guinea-Pigs are getting very old but Claire proved to be our life saver and managed to recreate 'Snowflake' and 'Sparkle' as if they are in the room with us.
