Tips for a better portrait

Best results: a sharp, bright photo at their eye level, face filling the frame.

Avoid

  • Blurry or dark
  • Taken from above
  • A screenshot
  • Too far away
  • Face cut off

JPEG, PNG or WebP, at least 320 px. Large photos (up to 25 MB) are resized in your browser. iPhone photos are converted for you; if a HEIC photo won't open, save it as a JPEG.

Real photos

Real canvas print

We had Charlie's Christmas-style Draw Paw portrait printed as an 18 × 24 in (45 × 61 cm) canvas by an online print service and photographed it at home, so you can see how a print-ready file can look on the wall. You can order your own framed print, canvas or poster from Draw Paw, fulfilled by Printful with shipping included, or choose Digital or Bundle and arrange your own printing.

GOOD QUESTIONS

Everything you
need to know.

We like being clear about what you're getting.

How to print & frame your art ↗
What do I get?

The artwork you approved, without the preview watermark. One pet per portrait. Digital: one print-ready 3072 × 4608 px JPEG (2:3), with the name if you added one, a smaller copy for sharing online (1024 × 1536 px), and a social media pack: an Instagram post (1080 × 1080 px) and story (1080 × 1920 px), a Facebook cover (1640 × 624 px) and a profile picture (800 × 800 px). Bundle: everything in Digital, plus ready-to-print 8 × 10 in (20 × 25 cm) (3686 × 4608 px) and A4/A3 (3258 × 4608 px) versions, a 9:16 phone wallpaper (1440 × 2560 px), desktop wallpapers (2560 × 1440 and 1920 × 1080 px), a black-and-white version, a printable greeting card (an A4 PDF that folds to A5, plus a 4 × 6 in (10 × 15 cm) photo card, and a “Merry Christmas” version until 26 December), a version without the name (if you added one) and a ZIP of everything. These extras are made from your approved portrait, not newly generated. The Bundle doesn't add more pets, styles or prints. Print: everything in Digital and Bundle, plus a framed print, canvas or poster, printed and shipped to you with shipping included. You choose the size and finish at checkout (12 × 18 in (30 × 45 cm), 16 × 24 in (40 × 60 cm) or 24 × 36 in (61 × 91 cm); available sizes and finishes depend on your country and are shown at checkout). Canvas prints are posted to Australia, New Zealand, the United States, Canada and Switzerland. Where Print is available at checkout, it is printed in the United States and posted to you. The version without the name is an AI edit of your portrait, so small details may differ. The Instagram post and story include a small draw-paw.com credit, and the greeting card’s back shows the Draw Paw logo. Download and save your files within 35 days.

How big can I print it?

The print-ready file is 3072 × 4608 px. It's made by enlarging your approved 1024 × 1536 px artwork three times with an image upscaler, so it's the same artwork, not a new one. It's sharp at A4, A3 or 12 × 18 in (30 × 45 cm), and we recommend it up to a 24 × 36 in (61 × 91 cm) poster or an 18 × 24 in (45 × 61 cm) canvas, viewed from a normal distance. A clear, well-lit photo of your pet gives the best result. The Bundle's 8 × 10 and A4 versions add a soft border made from the artwork itself, so your pet isn't cropped to fit those frames. See our printing guide.

How much does it cost?

Digital is US$15 and the Bundle is US$22 per portrait (USD), so the Bundle is US$7 more. Every style is the same price. Prices are shown in your local currency where we offer one (otherwise US dollars), include any applicable taxes, and you can change currency next to the price. Previews are free: you only pay if you buy. Print (framed, canvas or poster) starts from US$59, shipping included, and includes the Digital and Bundle files. Discount codes apply to Digital and Bundle only, not prints.

Which styles can I choose?

Thirteen signature styles, from playful to classic, plus two limited Christmas editions, Cozy Christmas and White Christmas, available until 26 December. Every style is the same price, and you can try several with your free previews.

How long does it take?

A preview usually takes about 15 to 25 seconds (occasionally up to a minute). Your approved portrait is available right after payment on the confirmation page; extra Bundle versions may take a few minutes. We email your download links, and you can also find them later at Find my order using your checkout email. Please download and save your files within 35 days of purchase. If you choose Print, your digital files are ready the same way, and the print is made to order. Where Print is available at checkout, it is printed in the United States and posted to you. Printing usually takes 2 to 5 business days, then it ships. Printful’s published US domestic standard shipping estimate is 3 to 4 business days after production. These are estimates, not guarantees. Standard shipping is included in the print price. We email a tracking link when it ships.

How does the preview and watermark work?

You see a smaller, watermarked preview of the actual artwork. If you buy, your main file is that same artwork, enlarged and without the watermark, not a newly generated picture. (In the Bundle, the version without the name is an AI edit, so small details may differ.) Previews are free: up to 5 a day on each device, and you can switch style or try again without uploading your photo again. Unpaid previews expire after about a day.

What if previews are busy?

While we're launching, there's a limit on how many previews we make across the whole site each day. If we reach it, no preview is made and none of your free previews is used. You can leave your email and we'll send you one email when previews reopen (usually the next day); offers are a separate, optional tick.

Any photo tips?

Use a sharp, well-lit photo where their face is clear and fills much of the frame, ideally taken at their eye level. One pet per portrait: choose a photo where they're the star, and crop out people where you can. JPG, PNG or WebP (HEIC works if your browser can open it; otherwise export the photo as a JPEG), at least 320 px on each side. Large photos are resized in your browser before upload (files up to 25 MB).

Which animals can I upload?

Any real animal is welcome: dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs and other small pets, birds, horses, lizards and other reptiles, and more. Each portrait paints one pet: if your photo shows two or more, we paint the main one, so for a pair, make a preview of each.

Can I give it as a gift?

Yes, two ways. If you'd like them to upload their own pet and choose the style, send a gift voucher (see the next question). If you have a photo of their pet, make the portrait yourself and gift it on the day you pick: at checkout, turn on It's a gift: add their first name, your first name and an optional message, and choose the delivery day (today, or up to 90 days ahead). If you add their email, we send them a link to unwrap the portrait at about 7:15am on that day, in your time zone. Or leave it empty and forward the gift link or print the gift card from your receipt yourself. The gift page shows the portrait and its files only, with no price, receipt, email address or discount codes. Gift files are kept for 35 days after the delivery day, so ask them to save the files soon.

Can I buy a gift voucher?

Yes. With a Draw Paw gift voucher, they upload their own pet and choose the style. It covers one Digital or Bundle portrait in any style, at the normal price. Add their name and an optional message, then choose whether we email it to them straight after payment or on the day you pick (at about 7:15am your time, up to 90 days ahead) or send it to you to print or pass on. They upload a photo, try the styles with free previews and enter the code at checkout, so they don't pay anything. Vouchers are valid for 3 years, can be used once and have no cash value.

Can I use a photo with people in it, or of something other than a pet?

We only paint pets and other animals. Please crop out people, especially children, where you can. If someone is still in the shot (say, a hand holding your pet), we paint only the pet, but the whole photo is sent to our AI provider (OpenAI) to make the artwork, so only use it if they're happy with that. Before a preview is made, an automated check confirms the photo shows a real animal; photos without one, including people-only photos, drawings and toys, are declined and don't use up a free preview.

Is Draw Paw an AI pet portrait generator?

Yes. Upload a photo of your pet, choose a style and we create a personalized, watermarked preview with AI from your photo, usually in about 15 to 25 seconds. The preview is free and there's no sign-up. If you love it, pay and get an instant digital download of the full-size portrait; if you don't, you pay nothing.

Is it AI-generated? Will it look exactly like my pet?

Yes, every portrait is created by AI (our provider is OpenAI) from your photo in the style you choose. Details can change such as markings or proportions, so check your preview carefully before you buy.

What happens to my photo?

We don't store your uploaded photo: it's sent to our AI provider (OpenAI) to create the artwork. Unpaid artwork is deleted automatically after about 24 to 48 hours, and purchased files 35 days after purchase (we email you a reminder about 5 days before). See our Privacy Policy for details.

What if something is wrong with it?

Faulty file, wrong artwork or missing delivery? Free fix or refund. If your portrait is faulty, isn't what you previewed or wasn't delivered, we'll fix it for free or refund you. Because you see a preview first, we don't generally refund a change of mind after downloading. Your rights under the Australian Consumer Law and other consumer laws aren't affected. See our Refund & Redo Policy.

Can I print it at home or at a print shop?

Yes. Digital and Bundle files can be printed on photo paper at home, or sent to any local print shop or online photo lab. Or choose Print at checkout and we'll print and ship a framed print, canvas or poster to you, with shipping included. Canvas prints are posted to Australia, New Zealand, the United States, Canada and Switzerland. Our printing guide covers sizes, paper and framing if you print the files yourself, and the Inspiration gallery has framing ideas.

Can I use it commercially?

Your portrait is for personal, non-commercial use, such as prints for your home, gifts and personal social media. Selling it or using it to promote a business isn't included: email hello@draw-paw.com to ask about commercial use. See our Terms.

Do you have a discount code?

Join our email list for 10% off a Digital or Bundle portrait with code 10OFF. Codes can't be used on prints. Enter it in the Discount code box before you pay. One code per order, and it can't be combined with other offers. After you buy, you also get a personal 15% code for another pet's portrait (valid for 30 days).

Can I order from my country?

Yes. Digital and Bundle downloads are available worldwide. Prices are shown in your local currency where we offer one (otherwise US dollars), and checkout shows the payment options available in your country. If you choose Print, checkout shows what's available where you are. Where Print is available at checkout, it is printed in the United States and posted to you. Printing usually takes 2 to 5 business days, then it ships. Printful’s published US domestic standard shipping estimate is 3 to 4 business days after production. These are estimates, not guarantees. Standard shipping is included in the print price. We email a tracking link when it ships. Canvas prints are posted to Australia, New Zealand, the United States, Canada and Switzerland.

Do I need an account?

No account needed. Upload a photo and our AI provider (OpenAI) creates the artwork in the background.

How do I contact you?

Email hello@draw-paw.com. We aim to reply within 2 business days.
