What a pet memorial portrait with angel wings looks like
Forever in My Heart is a soft, heavenly painting in creamy golds and pale blues. Your pet sits on clouds with delicate wings and a faint halo, bathed in warm light. Nothing is dramatic or dark; the mood is calm and loving.
We keep your pet's exact face, markings and colors from your photo, so the portrait shows them as you remember them. Many people find comfort in the idea of a pet waiting at the rainbow bridge, and this portrait gives that image a face: theirs.
Choosing the right photo
Often the hardest part is choosing a photo, and sometimes you only have a few. Pick one where your pet's face is clear and their eyes are visible. It doesn't need to be perfect: an older phone photo works as long as it isn't too blurry or dark.
If your favorite photo includes a person or another pet, choose the one where your pet is easiest to see. You can preview more than one photo for free and choose the version that feels most like them.
Memorial keepsakes and where to place them
Order the portrait through the Character Pet Portrait: a digital file for $29.99, art prints from $39.99 or canvas from $89.99, in sizes from 8×10 to 24×36 inches. A white or natural oak frame keeps the feeling light.
Many families place a small framed print near a favorite sleeping spot, beside the urn or collar, or on a bedside table. A pet ornament brings them to the tree every Christmas, and a sherpa blanket or pillow offers something comforting to hold.
- Bedside or mantel: 8×10 or 12×16 framed print
- Living room tribute: 16×20 canvas
- Every Christmas: memorial ornament
- Shared with family: digital download to print or keep on a phone
A thoughtful sympathy gift
A memorial portrait is one of the kindest gifts for a friend, parent or coworker who has lost a pet. If you'd like to surprise them, choose send photo later when you order: we'll email you a link to upload a photo when you have one and send you the preview for approval before anything is printed. See more pet memorial gifts and our guide to pet memorial gift ideas.
If you prefer something without wings, the watercolor portrait with the rainbow backdrop is a gentle rainbow-bridge tribute.
