I am thrilled to have you here!
As once a 'hooman' mum of two cats, a loyal and loving Greek rescue dog and now the proud owner of a soppy (but bonkers) labrador, I understand the special bond we share with our pets. That's why creating pet portraits is not just a job for me, it's a passion! Whether it's a gift for a loved one, or a memorial of a dearly loved pet, I ensure that I capture the best of your pet's character in my portraits.
​
From start to finish, I guide you through the whole process, making it stress-free and ensuring that the final piece is exactly what you want!
​
Please take a look at my gallery and see my past pet portraits, showcasing different techniques, styles, materials, and equipment that I use.
If you have any questions or general enquiries, please don't hesitate to contact me. I'm always happy to help!

In 2025 I was super busy showing my animal art and other artwork at various exhibitions and country shows. I enjoyed it so much, that I have decided to host some more this year! See below for details!
​
And Carol Spencer Art has a new addition to 2026 - WORKSHOPS!!
I have just completed my first few (trail!) workshops! - They were a brilliant success and I was so proud of the artwork produced by everyone. They are all beginner friendly, with me guiding you every step of the way!
Here's a few photos from the evening, but please head over to my workshop page for further details!
