Guernsey artist Toni de Kooker is offering custom acrylic and watercolour paintings of your pets, or animal of choice including but not limited to dogs, cats, horses and rodents!
Toni is an animal lover, owning four Bengal cats and a German Shepherd cross Siberian Husky dog. The Guernsey SPCA is a charity close to her heart, having adopted 4 cats from the shelter during her childhood. Toni is passionate about animal welfare and the protection of wildlife:
“The Guernsey SPCA takes in animals when they are in need of love most, and provide valuable support to pet owners where there is nowhere else to turn” said Toni, “It’s important that we, as a community, continue to support such an organisation which not only saves animals but ensures conservation of wildlife and wider awareness of animal welfare”.
Toni will be donating 25% of her commissions directly to the Guernsey SPCA.
Prices start as follows for typical sizes, which may vary depending on detail:
A4 (21cm x 29.7cm) - £150
A3 (29.7cm x 42cm) - £200
A2 (42cm x 59.4cm) - £275
A1 (59.4 x 84.1cm) - £350
Multiple pets on one canvas are 50% extra. For example: a cat and a dog on a A3 canvas would be £300, £75 of this commission would be donated to the Guernsey SPCA.
Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager “Toni is certainly very talented and it is wonderful that she is supporting the GSPCA by donating from each of the custom paintings she does.”
“If it wasn’t for incredibly kind supporters like Toni we couldn’t do so much at the GSPCA for the 1000’s of animals we help each year.”
You can contact Toni for further information on [email protected], or via her social media pages:
