Based at her studio in The Burren Nature Sanctuary, Kinvara, Lorraine Fletcher is a renowned wildlife and pet portrait artist whose work is deeply inspired by her lifelong love of animals and nature. Her paintings are celebrated for their vibrant colours, quirky compositions, and distinctive style that reflects a genuine passion for the natural world.
In recent times, Lorraine’s pet portraits have become particularly popular as meaningful keepsakes for owners wishing to immortalise their beloved companions. The process is simple: provide a clear, high-quality image of your pet, and Lorraine will create a unique acrylic painting on canvas, often finished with striking gold or copper leaf embellishments. Prices start at €250. Further examples can be viewed on her website or Instagram.
This summer, Lorraine is also hosting “Paint Your Pet” workshops, guiding participants step by step to create their own pet portrait from start to finish. Spaces are limited and advance booking is essential. To reserve your place, contact Lorraine directly on 087 194 1941 or visit www.lorrainefletcherart.ie
Currently, Lorraine is exhibiting her collection 'Connections' at The Town Hall Theatre, Galway until July 23.
