  1. Don’t know where to start, I contacted Robert with a very sensitive request and Robert created a portrait of my Husband and his Father who died many years ago. The photograph I provided was old but Robert created the most incredible piece of work. There were tears and emotion and I can never thank him enough for creating something so very special. Would highly recommend and will certainly be using Robert again in the future.

  2. We recently lost our beautiful boy Beau, Robert captured him perfectly, being a black dog every picture we had of him was so dark. The portrait was perfect, it picked out all his features, we felt we could stoke his fur it was that clear. Would highly recommend Robert.

  3. After loosing our dog Leo a year ago I had been looking for someone to create a drawing of him that really caught his character and Robert has done exactly that.

    The detail in the drawing is absolutely incredible it looks so life like. Robert was professional from start to finish answering any questions we had and helping us make decisions on framing and which type of portrait to go for.

    I could not be happier with the end result and will definitely be recommending him. I could sit and look at the portrait for hours!

  5. I am absolutely delighted with the picture Robert did of my daughters Border Collie. It is so lifelike I expect her to bounce out of the picture. Thank you so much.

  8. I’ve had an excellent experience from start to finish whilst getting Robert to do a portrait of my wife’s dog for her Birthday surprise. His communications were very clear an he made sure I fully understood what was required, how to get the best photograph for him to do the portrait from, timescales and how to make the payment. The end product was fantastic, Robert is so talented and all for what I thought was a very competitive price. The portrait arrived extremely well packaged so there was no chance of it being damage and it was easy to deliver to my daughter’s address so the surprise wasn’t spoilt. All in all a perfect experience and I would definitely use again!

  12. I recently ordered a portrait and I need to say its just amazing.
    Communication is brilliant before the order, during and after.
    I got a stunning portrait done in graphite, the details are gorgeous and i’m really really happy with it. Once the portrait was ready I got the email with a scan of it to see if any changes needed to be done, but like I said it was so lovely that no changes was done.
    Once it was paid i literally got it the next day by mail and my gosh in person was so much better. I really will recommend Robert to any of my friends because the work is great and he is just lovely to discuss an idea with.
    Thank you again Robert I will definitely come back to order more.

  13. This is my second time using Robert, which says a lot about him as an artist.

    I asked for two portraits, one of my two horses together and one on their own. I wanted a permanent living memory of my boys together before one sadly passed away.

    Robert couldn’t of done a better job, he has blown me away for a second time and really captured my two boys ❤️ the detail is insane! Even their eyes are the same as in real life.

    I will never use anyone else and will come back to Robert time and time again and suggest him to friends and family. Amazing art work, genuinely nice person to communicate with, keeps you up to date and always confirms the work before sending out.

    Thank you so much!!

  14. I made an enquiry to Robert to put a watercolour art piece together for my clients who were keen to have this of their lovely large manor house in the country. Robert was quick to respond and within days we had agreed to proceed, sent across the relevant information, paid the deposit and received the most beautiful painted art, all well packed and well secured to avoid any damages. My clients (and I) are over the moon with the result, all the details captured so beautifully. I would definitely keep Robert in mind for any of my future interior projects. Thank you Robert!

  16. I have had Robert draw 3 portraits now. I can’t fault him one bit and that’s why I keep coming back to him. The workmanship is always outstanding. Communication is great and Robert’s attention to detail is second to none. I will always recommend Robert for anyone wanting a portrait.

  17. I wanted to commission a unique picture of my brother’s three dogs as a gift for a significant birthday and looked at various animal portrait artists online. I came across Robert’s website, loved his style and immediately knew that he had the talent for the job. I was not wrong. The finished drawing is stunning and my brother was completely blown away (and reduced to tears!) by the gift. Robert managed to capture the dogs’ likenesses perfectly but more importantly, he created a portrait that expressed the dogs’ individual personalities. He could not have done a better job. Communication was excellent throughout and Robert not only promised to meet my deadline but delivered the framed portrait a couple of weeks in advance. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Robert for any special commission.

  18. I recently commissioned a pencil portrait of our dearly departed mum.
    The likeness was incredible and he drew her perfectly.
    I presented it to my brother on his sixtieth birthday and it was a very emotional time for us all.
    We now have a wonderful portrait of our mum smiling at us.
    Well done Bobby.

  20. What a talented artist! The portrait Robert did for us of Floyd, my brother-in-law’s four legged best buddy, was absolutely incredible! Having recently lost Floyd to cancer, every single one of us in the family shed a tear when we saw the finished masterpiece that we’d commissioned as a surprise gift for Mike (bro-in-law). The attention to detail and care in which had clearly been taken was stunning. He had not only captured Floyd’s physical appearance perfectly but also his gentle nature and beautiful personality. We were all overwhelmed by how it was ‘just so Floyd’ and it was so emotional when Mike saw it for the first time.

    It was such a straightforward process too with easy communication all the way through and a very impressive turn around time from my initial enquiry to receiving the finished piece. Every step of the way Robert was helpful, thoughtful and professional. It has been a wonderful experience working with him and I would highly recommend his work. I’ll definitely be asking him to do our next portrait when the time comes.

    Thanks, Robert, for everything.

  21. My mum’s dog passed away and I wanted a fitting tribute for her to celebrate her best friends life. I sent a couple of photos in and Robert chose one and told me the plan. What I received (well within the time frame advised) was an absolute masterpiece, I presented it to my mum and she was completely overwhelmed. Worth every penny, you can see the time and effort gone in to the quality piece of work that was revived. Very happy customer, thank you so much.

  22. I asked Bobby to do me a painting of two of my daughters dogs for their wedding anniversary and received the portrait very speedily and I cannot praise bobby on his talent enough, the dogs look exactly as they do in real life you could even feel the character through their eyes and stance.
    If you want a portrait of your beloved 4 legged friend you couldn’t leave the task in more talented hands.
    Great communication throughout the process would give 6 stars if I could. Thank you bobby.

  23. A friend of mine used Robert to do a sketch of her dog a few years ago. When she showed me the picture I could not believe how brilliant it was. He really captured all the features down to the hair colour, eyes and her cute little smile. I have recently had a portrait done for my son of his dog which is a little Maltipoo, again it is brilliant down to adding his name to his little name tag. I sent Robert a photo which he has captured in perfect detail and I really couldn’t be happier. I would definitely recommend Robert for any animal portraits and would definitely use him again. The portrait was packaged well and arrived exactly in time. Absolutely over the moon, thank you so much.

  25. Absolutely blown away with Robert’s work. We can’t possibly recommend him highly enough, he captured everything about our darling boy based on just a few photos. Thank you so much for your work, it looks amazing and we couldn’t be happier.

  26. I ordered a portrait of my dad’s dog for his birthday and it was fantastic! It captured her perfectly and my dad was over the moon with it.

  27. Robert completed a portrait of my four dogs, one of which had passed away very recently. The picture I received was beautiful, showed each of their personalities brilliantly and was outright amazing. This is the second portrait I have had from Robert, and I can guarantee it will not be the last!

  28. Excellent service from start to finish.

    We had a couple of pictures as a guide and Robert was able to put together exactly what we wanted which is a portrait of 2 dogs for a wedding present.
    Couldn’t fault anything and I especially liked that we had to give the ok on the picture before any monies were asked for. Arrived promptly once monies received.

    Thank you 🙏

  29. Robert did a fantastic job on a portrait of my parents from their honeymoon. Despite it being drawn from an old photo, the attention to detail and likeness is just uncanny.

  30. My mum previously bought a portrait from Robert which was absolutely gorgeous. I’ve bought another and the result is fantastic. Love it and can’t wait for it to go up on the wall!

  31. Absolutely Recommend! Amazing service from Robert throughout. I had been searching for a portrait artist for a while, then ‘Bobby’s pencil portraits’ came up online, and I’m so glad I chose Robert to complete this for me! He kept me up to date with everything to do with my order throughout, to an excellent level of detail. I got a portrait done of my Dad & Grandma, as we had no photos of them together, so Robert executed this perfectly from two separate photos to merge into one. The level of precision and detail that has gone into this is outstanding!
    I will defiantly be returning for more portraits to be done in the future.

  33. Robert was very professional and I contacted him after 4 years to draw another picture of my bosses dog as a leaving present from our Company. She was so very happy with the final drawing and will get it framed next to the 1st one that we got done by Robert after all those years. I wouldnt hesitate to recommend Robert – he has a natural gift for capturing the dog – the painting was so lifelike. Thank you Robert for an amazing painting and I will use your services again.

I can not praise the artwork of Robert enough, the portrait he created for me of my sisters dog is a perfect capture of the essence of the animal, this is a surprise present which I can not wait to give.

I would highly recommend Robert to anyone wishing to have a portrait done, whether that be of either animal or human, he has a wonderful talent.

  35. Robert, I can’t thank you enough for the incredible portrait you created of our friends dog, Ashley, who sadly passed away recently.

  40. Robert completed a drawing of two prized cats, Ronnie and Luke, belonging to my brother and sister-in-law which was to be a Christmas gift. To say we were all delighted is an understatement – even Luke recognized himself! The accuracy of the portraits and the delicate use of colour and tone was way beyond my expectations and I am so happy that these very handsome pair will be forever in this household because of Robert’s diligent, sensitive and quality work. Robert was super easy to communicate with, responsive to all requests and enquiries. A truly talented artist.

  51. I found Robert online when looking for a portrait artist to sketch a picture of my Dad Go Kart Racing for his 60th, and after viewing his gallery was impressed by all the motor racing styles he had done previously.

    Speaking to Robert and briefing him on my idea was easy and smooth. He understand the brief perfectly and was very efficient on timings. I received the online proof which I was so chuffed with… and it looked even better when it arrived in person, with the frame as well. My Dad was extremely touched and absolutely loves his drawing! I would highly recommend and use Robert again for future work. 🙂

    Thanks again Robert!

  58. I had a portrait of my Bearded Collie done as a birthday present , I had only come across this idea by chance so wasn’t sure what to expect. I contacted Robert by the number that was advertised and he answered straight away and was very good at explaining everything I needed to know. I didn’t know what to expect on what the price was going to be so took a chance but the service , time scale and quality was better than I thought and well worth the money I had spent.

  68. I commissioned Robert to draw a picture of our recently passed family dog. Not having used him before, I knew I was taking a risk but looking at his gallery and other reviews, felt confident of his abilities. I was not disappointed. Prompt and professional communication, excellent price point (I looked at a few other people who were considerably more expensive) and the portrait came earlier than anticipated.

    Would use again and already have other family members wanting their own.

  77. My wife and I commissioned Robert to draw a Portrait of our much loved and dearly missed Miniature Schnauzer Bobby. The initial digital image, which was submitted exactly on the promised date was virtually perfect, with some very minor alterations required. When we received the actual Portrait our initial reaction was to burst into tears, the image was astonishing and captured Bobby superbly. We also had the the portrait mounted and framed. Trying to select the most appropriate frame we found difficult on line so sought Roberts opinion, his choice was spot on and matched the image perfectly. We would have no hesitation in recommending Robert.

  78. Robert completed a pet portrait for myself as a gift for a family member.

    Robert was very quick at responding to emails. He went step by step through what I wanted and gave advice on what size and medium would be best to use. He gave a time frame inwhich the work would be completed in. This time frame was kept to.

    The drawing of the two dogs is absolutely amazing ! He took the two
    pictures of the dogs and captured both dogs perfectly in the drawing. My family member and I were overwhelmed and pleased with the piece of work.

    I would highly recommend Robert to friends and family.

  83. We are thrilled to bits with our pet portrait from Robert. It’s even better than I imagined, he really captured our pup’s expression which had been my only worry. The detail is beautiful and you can tell a lot of time and effort went in. We paid extra for a frame which was totally worth it as I wouldn’t dare touch it myself!! We were also pleasantly surprised that we could add magnets/ key rings to our order, it’s nice to carry a mini version with you and made a lovely gift for our dog walker.

  86. An excellent work if art capturing fine detail, colouring and character of pet. Unbelievably realistic. A first class service and portrait.

  87. I found this page on Facebook after looking for a portrait of my beloved french bulldog Bella. And I came across Robert, and I am so relieved I did. He is very professional, answered all my emails within minutes and I had placed my order. I asked him what would be best as I have never had a portrait done before. And he suggested the background colour and I sent the photo. When he contacted me the start of this month, and sent me the photo of what he drew, I burst into tears. He has captured Bella so perfectly. And I was outstanded, at the amount of time, effort and amazing talent Robert has. Every fine line of her fur, down to her eyes is perfect. I can’t fault him enough. I have shared him on Facebook with fellow dog owners, because he really is a special man, with a special talent. Amazing.

  88. I am delighted with the portrait of my dog Misty. Robert has captured her perfectly. He also sent me a photo of the portrait so I could review it before any payment was taken which gave me peace of mind. I would recommend this service 100%

  89. Fantastic drawing of a friend’s dog we had commissioned for his 50th birthday. Robert was recommended to us and I have no hesitation in recommending him myself.

All I can say is wow! The attention to detail is amazing and so lifelike too, I was in tears when I saw it. Just perfect, highly recommended.

You want to reach out and cuddle her. It has given Millie’s family so much comfort and makes them smile when they look at her.
    Roberts work is amazing. He has made Milly so present.

  106. I thought it would be nice to get a picture completed for my Mum’s 60th birthday.
    Originally I was not thinking of getting a hand-drawn picture, but when one of parent’s albums went missing, I thought it sounded like the perfect gift.

    Robert was very happy to help, and worked with our tight deadline.
    The picture was amazing and was drawn on A3 size from a small (emailed) picture.

    Absolutely amazing work. We liked it so much we are just thinking of what else we can get worked as another picture!!

He fully understood what I was asking for and the addition was made in a timely fashion. He understood the essence of the photo, easy communication with him and very customer satisfaction focused. Will have no hesitation asking him to do another one for me.

  110. My sister from Australia came to visit and as a thank you present commissioned a portrait of our labradoodle dog Teddy. When the picture arrived it was a complete surprised and we were shocked that some one could capture the likeness and more so the character of our dog from a couple of pictures. I am told that the contact between Robert and my sister was excellent, he fully understood what she wanted and was able to create it easily. The picture is away at the framers at the moment and when we took it to the shop, everyone there commented on how good it was, even Teddy was brought from the car to compare with the picture. It was a resounding success. Thank you Robert for such a wonderful portrait, I am sure it will get many compliments for years to come.

Sadly my dad passed away just 6 days after his birthday but the pleasure Roberts portrait brought him in those last few days was worth its weight in gold. Thank you Robert, you’re a very talented artist and we wish you all the very best for the future.

  118. I live in France and commissioned a portrait of my son and daughter-in-laws two cats as a housewarming present as they move into their new home in Germany. Bobby was amazing not only did he capture their expressions (they are both very different characters) but he kept me fully informed all the way through. He gave me advice on the mount, frame and size which was much better than I had come up with. The portrait arrived VERY quickly and was beautifully and safely packed. I can’t wait to give it to them as I know they will be as thrilled as I am. I already have two more projects that I should like Bobby to do, one for myself and one for my best friend’s “important” birthday coming up. I cannot recommend Bobby highly enough so pleased I found him

  123. Robert drew a beautiful pencil portrait of my girlfriend and her older sister. It was important that the picture captured them both as it was to give to my girlfriend to remind her of her sister, who is getting married and moving onto another stage in her life. I wasn’t disappointed. The picture was great. I asked for a few tweaks to help capture things that were only noticeable in real life, and Robert immediately agreed and made it absolutely perfect. It brought their mum to tears when she saw it.

  124. Excellent and proffesional service!! I had a sketch commissioned of myself by Robert, for my husband’s birthday, something he’s always wanted. The photo I sent Robert was an old one and I asked if somethings could be a little different to the actual immage, I was over the moon with the results. The sketch was completed ahead of schedule, something I was delighted about as I had left it quite late. On viewing I asked Robert if a couple of small changes could be made and he obliged promptly and without question. The sketch was dispatched immediately on receipt of payment and delivered the very next morning. Thank you Robert for helping make this the best birthday surprise ever!!!!

  131. I recently commissioned a colour portrait of a family pet as a Christmas-cum-Birthday present for my niece. I researched the work of a number of artists, but when I viewed Robert’s Gallery, I had no doubt that he was the correct choice. The result is truly breath taking and surpassed all my expectations: so lifelike and with such stunning attention to detail. Robert has an amazing ability to capture a dog’s aura, personality and facial expression with almost photographic precision.
    From initial enquiry to delivery, the whole experience was pleasant and professional: good communication, sound advice and real value-for-money for such high-quality artwork. Completed within the requisite time scale, the portrait arrived well packaged and in pristine condition.
    I have already recommended Robert to a number of family and friends, and plan to commission another family pet portrait in the near future. I have no hesitation in highly recommending him to anyone else considering a similar commission.

  141. I recently commissioned two pencil portraits from Robert Shirt and have been absolutely delighted with the results of both of them. They are intended as gifts and they capture the moments so beautifully. When I received the first portrait by email I opened it and was so amazed and moved by the results and the actual portraits themselves are even better. The people who are framing them even commented on the fantastic quality of the work. I also purchased a key ring and and fridge magnet of both as a memento. It’s lovely to have the images with me all the time. I should mention also that Robert did them really quickly (around a week for each portrait) which I was very impressed by grateful for. The portraits arrived well packaged and the whole experience of commissioning a portrait from Robert was fantastic. I will definitely use again.

  149. Once again Robert has produced a beautiful drawing from a photograph that I sent him by email. Up until now Robert has drawn six of my dogs and they are superb replicas of them all, and are decorating the walls of my home. This time I asked Robert if he would be able to draw a portrait of myself and my husband from a favourite photograph taken in a restaurant, which thankfully he did. It was difficult keeping the secret from my husband, as I wanted to surprise him on our 20th wedding anniversary, so I hid it for a couple of months. Today I have been able to give my husband the framed picture, which not only took him by surprise, but he thought it was wonderful and immediately looked for the best position to hang it. I am always thrilled with Robert’s work, and would happily recommend him to anyone seeking to get a portrait done for themselves, or their loved ones.

Each pencil stroke has been expertly placed and the outcome was fantastic! It actually looked better than the photograph! Everyone that has seen it (up on the wall) has commented on how brilliant it is. The dog was even impressed. The price was fantastic considering the amount of hours it must have taken, to have a skill like that is fantaastic. Robert kept me updates when he was finished and sent me picture of the final version to make sure I was happy before he very promtly and securely dispatched it. Absolutly love it! Thank you.

  164. Cannot recommend highly enough! I contacted Robert just before Christmas after losing our family dog as my brothers and I wanted to get a portrait of her done for my parents. I received a reply almost immediately and although Robert’s order schedule meant that my portrait wouldn’t be ready in time for Christmas he sent me a lovely hard-backed ‘Portrait awaiting voucher’ which meant my parents had something to open on the day. A few days into the New Year Robert contacted me to say the piece was finished (5 days before the ‘estimated completion date’ he originally gave me!). The likeness and detail in the finished piece was simply amazing, we were all reduced to tears when it arrived! So many friends have complimented the portrait which is now hanging proudly above where our dog used to sleep. Already passed on Robert’s details to friends who have recently lost beloved pets. Thank you!!

He completed the portrait a few days before the expected date and we received it the day after completing payment. We were sent a preview to approve but once we saw the original piece we were blown away. Robert had created a beautiful drawing of our dog and it captured him brilliantly. It will be treasured and I know my parents will love it when they receive it on Christmas Day. I can not thank Robert enough. I will certainly be asking Robert to complete some more portraits for us in the future.

  177. Robert was quick to respond to my initial enquiry and suggested which photograph he wanted to recreate.
    The final outcome is a perfect likeness and looks great on my wall.
    Robert gave me a deadline date and was spot on with it; I paid the invoice same day and received the final picture two days after.

  178. I asked Robert to do a portrait of my cocker spaniel and sent him a few photos. He helped decide which would be the best and the finished picture is absolutely superb and couldn’t be happier with it. He has really captured her features and is such a great likeness.

  179. Robert produced a perfect likeness of my Grandson. The portrait was produced very quickly, his communication was excellent and I could not be happier with the pencil drawing. I would have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone.

  180. Have just received our commissioned picture from a wedding photograph for friends wedding anniversary…..and it is absolutely stunning. Robert is obviously a very talented man and we are simply thrilled with the picture.

  181. So happy with the portrait I had done of my sisters dog. Quick to respond and helpful in deciding what colours to use. Thrilled with the picture, what a talent!

  182. I can’t recommend Bobby highly enough, his wonderful portrait of our labrador is perfect – his likeness has been captured brilliantly and it will have pride of place for many years to come.

  185. My fiancé was returning from deployment, and I wanted a photo of him from a previous deployment drawing. Slight problem – the picture quality was terrible! After asking about 10 artists, Robert was the only one who said he would do it. Not only did he do it; he did it better than I could of wished for!

    Not only did he have poor picture quality to contend with, but military uniform and a weapon as well! It is amazing! The detail is fantastic! I love it more and more each time I look at it. My fiancé put it straight up and said it was the best gift he’s ever got.

    Thank you so much Robert! Would 100% recommend!
