Betsy. (a muffin).

Hey folks, I'm looking to commission a small artwork in honor of my cat Miles, who passed suddenly a week ago.

Recommendations for artists very welcome, as are boosts.

Please DO NOT reply with sympathy about Miles; I will take y'all's condolences as a given, but right now I think hearing a million expressions of same would just hurt worse.

@betsythemuffin What sort of artwork did you have in mind? I had a small felted sculpture of Maggie created by TwoFeltedFox and I was extremely pleased with the quality and level of detail. It took a VERY LONG time for the work to be completed, but it was worth the wait. https://www.etsy.com/shop/TwoFeltedFox

@holytoastr I was thinking of a painting, but this is a really interesting possibility. Thank you.

@betsythemuffin Here's a few pictures of our sculpture, to see the level of detail and the size. She even did the pose I requested.

@betsythemuffin KM Steere is an artist who does botanical x animal crossover portraits. Her commissions fill up really fast, but she puts a lot of feeling into the portraits.

We commissioned her back in 2021 for our cat and I was really happy with her work.

@betsythemuffin i nominate @davidrevoy but I don’t know if he takes commissions. @roxy sometimes does and is wonderful to work with. @sylvia_ritter as well, have had friends who worked with her.

@betsythemuffin I'm available to commission, you can find more information on my website https://www.angyl.co.uk

Always happy to discuss options too, artwork is a unique thing and pricing is therefore somewhat flexible especially if you want something smaller, or bigger, or simpler, or fancier, than my usual items.
