David Rothwell - Pet Portraits
I'm an aspiring Graphic Design student studying at Cardiff Metropolitan University. I've been a keen artist since I was a child. I am also hugely enamored with animals and decided to turn by artistic ability to drawing people's dogs, cats, anything people are eager to capture as a memento.
​
I began drawing animals as a personal hobby and quickly began receiving requests from family and friends for commissioned work. I am hugely passionate about animals. My first piece was my own springer spaniel, Daisy, who's portrait you can find by navigating to the PORTFOLIO page.
​
The idea of drawing people's pets and giving them a unique piece of memorabilia is hugely appealing to me, and I hope to be able to do this for you.
​
I have a blog and an online portfolio for anyone interested in learning about my design process and/or the development of my work as I progress through University. Simply follow the links at the bottom of the page.

Thanks for reading.
