Piiko 😽 Pet portrait commissions open! 🐾

Thank you, Amanda! ❤️ It was such a joy to draw too 🥰

Thank you! 😽❤️

I feel the same! I'm excited too though, but really nervous for so many favourites, including many in makushita or lower. Wish I could just trust they'll all be healthy and do well. Why is it extra hard this time? 😅

Amazing work, as always! 😍

Realistic digital drawing of a winking tabby cat. She’s standing and looking at the camera with her head slightly tilted and her right eye closed like she’s winking right at you. Her front paws are on the Moon as if she’s been kneading biscuits on it. Lilac flowers frame her face and behind her is the dark vastness of space, filled with stars in varying sizes and colours. The galaxy M31 shines on her right among the stars.

Did you know? The Moon’s craters are actually kneaded by a winking cat! 🤭 This recent commission must be one of my favourites. I really loved the background I was requested to do & had so much fun drawing it all! I’m so thankful I got to do this❤️

Roo portrait next to daddy's photo

Portrait by Pikko The Artist captures Roo perfectly

The mama was speechless when I surprised her with his portrait

This past weekend we put up the beautiful Roo portrait created by @piikotheartist.bsky.social for his mama. It is next to daddy's own picture that is in the Austin History Center. We feel our Roo Mans deserves a place of honor.

Oh how lovely to see this, thank you for sharing! Roo absolutely deserves a place of honour! ❤️ And I'm so happy that you like the portrait, Roo was such a joy to draw!

Realistic digital drawing of Uni, a popular tuxedo cat with a very round face. The drawing shows his very round face as he’s staring into the distance, contemplating the chicken he just ate and the next that he'll eat soon. He’s wearing a flower shaped collar that matches his yellow eyes. The background is a muted raspberry-ish colour.

I found the time to draw some cat fan art for this #Caturday so here’s Uni, the cutest round boy! 🥰 We're all following @unicouniuni3.bsky.social already aren't we? 😘

#猫の日 にはもちろん猫のアートですね！少しは時間があったので、可愛いうにちゃんのファンアート描いてみました。真ん丸なお顔に真ん丸なお目々！😻❤️

A bit different from my usual stuff, but I wanted to congratulate #Nabatame on his birthday today & had too much fun making this 🤭 I'd been slowly drawing this #portrait between commissions for some time. 😅

#生田目 関のお誕生日なのでちょっと普通とは違うふうに絵を投稿してみました！楽しかったな～ｗ🤭

If it's a cough then that sounds similar to what our situation was. I'm not a vet but if it looks like the asthma attack videos I'd get it checked out as it might be asthma and can be easily treated with an inhaler. 😊

Oh that sounds quite likely then, it's tough with a weather like that 🥹 An asthma cough is also pretty easy to recognise though, you can find videos on Youtube if you want to rule that out. 😊

Any chance it could be asthma? Our cat also reacts to sudden changes in temperature so maybe a possibility too (not a sphynx but a very short haired breed).

Important assistant duties: making sure the artist goes to bed at a reasonable time 😽💤 Happy #Caturday everyone! ❤️

「もう寝る時間だにゃん！」と教えるのも補佐猫の重要な仕事ですね。色々大変ですね、ムルちゃん 🤭

Digital drawing of a chibi character on a blueish grey background. The character is Elesh Norn from Magic the Gathering. She has a dainty pose like she's skipping along happily. A red cloth is trailing behind her creating a heart shape.

Happy Valentine’s Day! 💖 Too busy to do anything new but I did this card last year for my SO who’d asked for a #chibi #EleshNorn for some time. 😆 I had no experience drawing chibis but of course I had to draw him a Chibish Norn for Valentine’s and it was fun! 🤭💕

Digital sketch of a dog running through a green field under a blue sky. Everything is very roughly sketched mainly just to show where different elements are placed and what the colours would be. There's a lush forest in the background and the front is covered in bluebonnet flowers. The dog has a happy expression, he smiles with closed eyes and leaps forward, his nose up towards the sky.

Realistic digital drawing of a dog running through a green field under a blue sky. The drawing is a work in progress but has some very detailed areas and is starting to come together. There's a lush forest in the background and there are several bluebonnet flowers in the front. The dog has a happy expression, he smiles with closed eyes and leaps forward, his nose up towards the sky.

This was also a special project as the portrait would be quite different from the references. First I did just a quick sketch so we could decide the composition. A later #WIP was to check the overall look & to allow for possible changes before adding more details. 🐶

Oh absolutely! Take your time and if you have any questions at all please feel free to reach out, I'm always happy to help ☺️

Oh thank you! I'd love to do that ❤️ Have you thought of what sort of portrait you'd like yet? 😊

Aww, thank you so much! ❤️

Realistic digital drawing of a dog running through a green field under a blue sky. There's a lush forest in the background and the front is covered in bluebonnet flowers. The dog has a happy expression, his tongue hanging out as he smiles with closed eyes and leaps forward, his nose up towards the sky. His fur is mainly white and the darker spots and patches have started greying from age.

I was so honoured to draw this memorial portrait of sweet Oscar recently. I imagine him now running through endless bluebonnet fields like he loved to do when he was young. ❤️ Thank you for trusting me with such a special commission. 🙏

Thank you so much Ella! ❤️

That's lovely to hear! I'm really looking forward to seeing him get his wheels and how he adjusts to them. I bet he'll be zooming around like a Ferrari soon! 🤭❤️

My pleasure! I feel like my posts don't get seen much lately but I really hope Roo still gets some new friends this way, there's never too many!

Thank you so much! ❤️

Thank you, for the repost too ❤️ Roo is such a cutie!

Previous post shows two WIP updates I'd done before getting to the final portrait above.

Realistic digital art of a dog standing on its back legs, without any front legs as he was born without them. The background is pale blue, the dog mainly pinkish beige with some short white fur and grey markings. He has quite a distinctive grey paw shaped mark on his side.

And here’s the finished digital #PetPortrait of lovely little @roothekangaroo.art ❤️ This was so much fun to draw that I was a bit sad to finish it!

Go and give Roo a follow if you haven’t yet! I’m definitely looking forward to seeing him get his custom made wheels soon 🐶🐾

I'm so happy you like it! Thank you so much for your kind words! 🥰❤️ Roo is such a charismatic little sweetie that I really enjoyed drawing him. I can't wait to see him get his wheels soon!

Aww, I'm so glad to hear that! Thank you for sharing this! 😍
