About

Hi!

My name is Victoria Petchey and I’m based in Felixstowe, Suffolk.

I mainly create portraits of animals through the medium of paint or collage, and occasionally dabble in watercolours, pencils, pen and ink.

I love creating art that makes you smile. Capturing a snapshot of something important to you, putting it in a frame and hanging it on the wall to enjoy for years to come.

I try to be very mindful of the materials I use in regards to the impact they have on the environment and I use minimal paint to avoid waste.

I share my home with two rescue cats, Rosa and Dora. They’re a daily inspiration for me and I love having them nearby when creating artwork. I was also greatly inspired by beloved, late cat, Eric, and I miss him terribly.
