Our custom pet portrait is not simply a work of art - it’s a cherished memento of your beloved companion, a piece of fine art that requires ocassional care. Proper maintenance ensures that your portrait remains as vivid and expressive as the day you first admired its craft. Below, find expert advice from the Art in a Sec team on preserving your portrait for generations.


Environment is Key

Each artwork is printed with high-quality, UV-resistant inks; however, it is still advisable to position your portrait away from direct sunlight. UV rays can prematurely age the inks, causing colors to fade. Similarly, avoid areas with high humidity or temperature fluctuations, as these can affect the canvas and paint.


Cleaning Methods

Keep your pet portrait dust-free by lightly brushing it with a soft, dry brush or microfiber cloth. Avoid using cleaning agents, which can damage the paint. For deeper cleans, seek out a professional conservator skilled in art maintenance.


It's really that simple

By following these care tips, your custom pet portrait can remain a focal point in your home and a lasting tribute to your pet’s place in your life. Reach out to Art in a Sec for more personalized advice on your portrait’s care.
