Pet portraits vary a lot in price. A quick search brings up everything from a £5 Fiverr sketch to a £500 hand-painted commission. It can be hard to tell what you're paying for.
Here's a plain breakdown of what you'll typically find, and where Nobly sits.
Handmade Commissions (Etsy, local artists)
Most custom portraits on Etsy run between $50 and $200, sometimes more for large pieces or detailed breeds. The quality varies widely. Turnaround is usually 1 to 3 weeks, sometimes longer if the artist is busy. Some are beautiful. Some look nothing like your pet.
You're paying for a human's time, which is fair. But you often don't see the result until it's done and shipped.
AI-Generated Portraits (Various apps)
There are plenty of apps that generate portraits instantly. Prices are usually low, around $5 to $15. The results tend to look a bit generic. Faces often don't hold up well at large print sizes, and the style can feel repetitive across different pets.
Nobly
We use AI to generate a classical oil-style portrait, but the focus is on photorealistic face detail. The background and body have loose, textured brushwork. The face looks like your actual pet.
