The Complete Guide to Our 8 Art Styles

Choosing the right art style for your pet portrait is half the fun. Each of our eight styles transforms your pet in a completely different way, so here's a quick guide to help you pick the one that feels right.

Royal Renaissance is our most popular style — and for good reason. Your pet is painted as nobility: rich robes, golden frames, regal posture. It works beautifully in traditional living rooms and makes a statement above a fireplace. Perfect for pets with a dignified, slightly aloof personality (or the ones who think they're royalty already).

Watercolor is soft, dreamy, and full of gentle movement. It suits pets with a calm, sweet temperament and looks stunning in bedrooms or nurseries. The light washes of colour give it an ethereal quality that feels both modern and timeless.

Minimalist Modern strips everything back to clean lines and muted tones. Think West Elm meets pet portrait. This style fits seamlessly into contemporary spaces and appeals to people who love design but don't want anything too loud on their walls.

Pop Art is bold, bright, and unapologetically fun. Inspired by Warhol and Lichtenstein, it turns your pet into a graphic icon. This one gets shared on social media more than any other style — it's a conversation starter.

Cartoon and Caricature is the most playful option. Your pet gets exaggerated features and a cheeky expression. It's the top choice for gifts, especially for kids' rooms or offices where you want something light-hearted.

Stained Glass transforms your pet into a luminous window panel with rich jewel tones and bold outlines. It's one of our most unique styles — nothing else on the market quite looks like it. Works especially well with pets that have distinctive markings.

Anime reimagines your pet in the style of Japanese animation — big expressive eyes, dynamic poses, and vibrant colours. Popular with younger pet owners and anyone who grew up watching Studio Ghibli.

Epic Cinematic is our wildcard. Your pet becomes the hero of a movie poster — dramatic lighting, sweeping backgrounds, larger-than-life energy. It's newer than the other styles, but the people who love it really love it. Great for adventurous dogs and cats with big personalities.
