Portrait Commissions & Surface Pattern Art
Custom portrait commissions — pets, families, and individuals — painted by hand from your favourite photos. Plus signature surface pattern collections available for licensing.
I paint custom portraits from your favourite photos — pets, families, and individuals. Original paintings and fine art prints, made one at a time, each one entirely yours.
You are not buying a product. You are commissioning something that will outlast every other thing in your home. A painting of your dog. A portrait of your family as they are right now, at this exact moment in your lives. That is what I make.
How it works
Email your favourite photo — clear lighting works best. Tell me who it is and what size you have in mind. I'll reply with a quote the same day.
A 50% deposit via Venmo or PayPal secures your commission. I begin work as soon as it arrives.
I share a progress photo before finishing. You can request adjustments — the final piece should feel exactly right.
Balance due on completion. I deliver in person within Tucson or ship anywhere in Arizona. Most pieces are ready in 2–3 weeks.
Pricing
A hand-illustrated digital portrait, printed and ready to frame. Pets, individuals, or small family groups. Delivered as a high-resolution file.
An original hand-painted piece on canvas or board, 11×14 inches. One subject — your pet, a loved one, or an individual portrait. Painted and yours alone.
16×20 inches. A couple, a pet with a person, or a larger single subject. More presence, more detail, more room for the story to breathe.
Your whole family, painted together. Small group portraits start at $1,200. Large statement pieces — the kind that hang in a hallway for a generation — from $2,000.
Rush orders (10–12 day delivery) available at +25%. Contact me to check availability.
I'm Belle — the artist behind Hummingbird Design Prints, based in Tucson, Arizona. My work spans two practices that share the same root: a deep love of beauty, pattern, and the things that make a space feel like it belongs to someone.
In my surface pattern work, I build complete design collections — hero prints, coordinates, and textures — ready for licensing across fabric, home décor, stationery, and lifestyle products. My signature collections are available now, with more in development.
In my portrait work, I paint the people and animals that matter most to the people who commission me. Pets, families, individuals — painted by hand from photographs, one piece at a time. I also gift regular portrait commissions to Tucson's animal rescues, painting their longest-waiting residents to help them find homes.
