About Lauren
Owner of Feltera Portraits
Creative Journey
Having spent most of her life focused on Fine Art and Graphic Design, her last work in fine art was creating acrylic pet portraits in 2019. After graduating as a Graphic Designer from UCA Epsom in 2020, she put fine art on hold and began working full-time in the industry.
Over the next four years, she specialised in packaging design. In the summer of 2024, she discovered needle felting through TikTok videos, which inspired her to try something new. Eager to experiment, she purchased the basic materials and created her very first felted pet portrait of her beloved spaniel, Riley, while sitting on her balcony.
Since then, she has dedicated her evenings and weekends, alongside her full-time role as a Packaging Designer, to building her own business, Feltera Portraits. As of April 2026, she is now working on Feltera full-time, while also taking on ad-hoc freelance graphic design projects.
Lauren continues to use her graphic design expertise to carefully craft and market her 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.
We recommend sending 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.
