Welcome

My name is Brianna Leidy

I am a professional oil painter based in Eastern Pennsylvania, in the suburbs of Philadelphia. I am primarily a commission-based artist, focusing heavily on pet portraiture, with dogs and cats being the center of it all. My pet oil paintings are carefully painted by hand on stretched canvas or wooden panel, using the photos provided to me by my clients as reference. My paintings can be found in nearly all 50 States, as well as internationally.

Custom Pet Oil Paintings

Are you interested in commissioning a custom oil painting of your pet? My commission process is quite simple. To get started, I’ll need a photo (or several) of your pet to work from and any details you would like me to know about them. We will discuss your vision for the portrait– or you can simply provide a photo of your pet and leave the rest to me.

What Some Of My Clients Had To Say…

Jeff S.

"I like paintings that accurately capture the source material and have very good attention to detail. This is what I expected to get but what I received exceeded any expectations I had going in. The level of detail in the paintings is incredible. If an accurate recreation of a picture of your pet is what you are looking for you are not likely to find a better artist."

“Brianna was a pleasure to work with. She was very prompt at replying to emails, explained the process clearly, and was responsive to all requests. The finished product is amazing; she really captured the personalities behind each of the dogs.”
“Pinnie and Minnie”, 11”x14”, Oil on Canvas
Thomas M.

“Sent Brianna a picture of a friends dog on a chair to paint a portrait as a gift. The painting was absolutely beautiful! It was almost impossible to distinguish between the photo and the portrait! Amazing painting. My friend was blown away with the quality of the painting! Brianna is an incredible artist!”

“Working with Brianna was an absolute dream. She is responsive and professional and we are ecstatic with the results.”
“Kota”, 14”x11”, Oil on Canvas
Brenna M.

“Brianna is such a great artist to work with. From the start, she makes sure any reference pictures are good to go and asks about all the details that may go into the piece. Throughout the process, I was given updates on what the painting was looking like and when about it would be shipped. Not only is Brianna a thorough artist in process, her work is breathtaking when it gets taken out of the packaging once it arrives.”

Amy D.

“Really incredible to work with this artist. Went above and beyond to make sure I was happy with the portrayal of my pet and could not be happy that I have a forever puppy picture of my dog! 10/10 would recommend. ☺️”
“Ellie”, 7”x5”, Oil on Canvas
Jeanine H.

“I asked Brianna to paint my brother's German Shepherd as a Christmas present, and she did a spectacular job -- I'm so thrilled with how it turned out, and the person at the frame shop said it was one of the best portraits he's ever seen. Wonderful, friendly communication every step of the way, safely packaged and shipped. Thank you so much for what will be a truly memorable, one-of-a-kind gift!!”

“Absolutely exceeded my expectations! Brianna is so lovely to work with, keeping me updated every step of the way, which I really appreciate. I’ve wanted to transform a photo of my dad with the family dog into a portrait for a really long time, and I’m glad I settled on this shop.”

“No words can truly describe the painting I received from Brianna. The artwork resembles a photograph! The attention to detail is on point. She captured every particular detail of my wife's dog. When I gifted the art to her, it brought her to tears! I am beyond thrilled about to have commissioned Brianna. One of the best gifts I have ever given my wife! I look forward to seeing how Brianna's career advances. I see a very bright future for this young artist!”

"Brianna is a skilled artist and wonderful human! We commissioned a portrait to commemorate our beloved Maine Coon, and Brianna offered expert advice—from selecting a photo to portrait size—and kept us updated throughout her painting process. We're so delighted to have her work in our home. The portrait brings a daily smile. We look forward to commissioning work from Brianna in the future!"

"Working with Brianna has been a positive experience! From the very beginning to the finished portrait, Brianna was professional and captured our little girl perfectly! She has such a way in bringing a subject to life with how she paints. I was very pleased to receive the painting she did for me to give to my husband. She definitely has a special talent!!! We would highly recommend Brianna for any future commissions!!"
