Commission a portrait
I am available to take limited commissions in either graphite or coloured pencil. I use professional quality, archival materials for all my work, so you can be sure of a quality piece of art that should make you smile for years to come!

“Art must be an expression of love or it is nothing.”

Commission Review
Chesca exceeded all my expectations—not only did she capture Rocco’s appearance with stunning accuracy, but she also managed to reflect his kind and intelligent soul. The result was a beautiful piece of art, as anyone can see.
When my brother and his partner unwrapped it, they were absolutely overwhelmed by the incredible likeness of their beloved dog. It was the perfect gift to honour Rocco’s memory.”

My Story
Welcome to Four Paws and a Pencil, the ‘pencil and paper’ home to artist Chesca Burrows – and my art room cat, Squeaky!
I specialise in drawing miniatures in both graphite and coloured pencil.
Whilst horses have always been my main love to paint or draw, my pencil journey has led me to enjoy creating all animals. I am particularly fond of drawing cats eyes!
“A miniature painting is a labor of love – it requires patience, dedication, and passion.”
