Teri Mead Art is a handmade charcoal practice based in Herne Bay, Kent — looking out toward soft mornings, coastal light, and the quiet faces of animals who share our lives.

The heart of the work is bespoke pet portraits: original drawings made from carefully chosen photographs, finished with care, and offered at a clear price so the conversation stays warm and straightforward.

“Created by hand with love.” Good things take time.

Wildlife and nature studies sit alongside the commissions — monochrome neighbours from field and shoreline, the same patient charcoal language that finds its way into every portrait.

Grateful for the people and pets who trust this studio with their special moments. Whether you are commissioning a living companion or a memorial of a pet who has passed, the process begins gently: a message, a photograph, and time enough to get it right.

Shall we begin a portrait?
