Memorial Pet Portraits by Tracy Barker - A tribute to your loving companion

Nora - Gone but never forgotten

If youre looking for a pet portrait artist to create bespoke memorial portrait of your beloved companion, just get in touch.

Using soft pastels and pencils, i aim to capture the unique character of your pet your pet.

We understand that this is a deeply emotional time, whether your furry friend is ageing or has recently passed away. My heartfelt commitment is to capture their essence and keep their memory alive in a beautiful way, something you can cherish for a lifetime.

Unlike photographs of your dog, cat or other cherished pet, a painting can capture the spirit, essence, personality into a piece of art.

I recognise that a custom pet portrait recognizes that our pets are truely members of our family, and thus provides a homage to the love and companionship that they provided during their lifetime with us.

Gatsby - Rainbow Bridge 2026

Rainbow Bridge.

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge.

There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....
