About Lauren

Owner of Feltera® Portraits

Creative Journey

Having spent most of my life focused on Fine Art and Graphic Design, my last work in fine art was creating acrylic pet portraits in 2019. After graduating as a Graphic Designer from UCA Epsom in 2020, I put fine art on hold and began working full-time in the graphic design industry.

​

Over the next four years, I specialised in packaging design. In the summer of 2024, I discovered needle felting through TikTok videos, which inspired me to try something new. Eager to experiment, I purchased the basic materials and created my very first felted pet portrait of my beloved spaniel, Riley, while sitting on my balcony.

​

Since then, I’ve dedicated my evenings and weekends, alongside my full-time role as a Packaging Designer, to building my own business, Feltera Portraits. As of April 2026, I’m now working on Feltera full-time, while also taking on ad-hoc freelance graphic design projects.

I continue to use my graphic design expertise to carefully craft and market my brand.

Optional to add in your pet's real fur

You have the option to include your pet’s fur within the portrait, making it even more personal. There’s no right or wrong amount to send - any quantity is meaningful, as it allows a part of your pet to be included. However, the more fur provided, the more visible it will be in the final piece.

It is recommended to send small trimmings from areas such as the ears or tail, though fur collected from a brush works just as well. Once your deposit has been received, you’ll be given the address to send the fur to.

Frame Colours

The frames come in five different
frame colours:

  • Retriever Oak

  • Springer Brown

  • Westie White

Client Testimonials

I honestly can’t recommend Lauren enough. After losing our beloved dog Toby this year, I wanted something truly special to remember him by, and what we received was beyond anything I could have imagined.

The portrait, created using Toby’s own fur, is simply breathtaking. The likeness is incredible and it captures not only his appearance but also his gentle, happy personality. Every curl, every expression, and every tiny detail has been recreated with such extraordinary skill and care.

This is so much more than a piece of artwork; it’s a precious keepsake that we’ll treasure forever. Knowing it was made from Toby’s own fur makes it even more meaningful, and it brings us comfort every time we look at it.

Thank you Lauren for treating Toby’s memory with such respect, compassion, and incredible talent. You have given our family a lasting reminder of our beautiful boy, and for that we will always be grateful.
