Roger Henry began his portrait series over ten years ago. He has been commissioned to paint portraits for personal enjoyment as well as for anniversary, birthday, and as holiday gifts. A commissioned portrait of your pet is a unique and wonderful way to cherish the memory of a dear friend and companion that will be appreciated for a lifetime.

Henry's clients tend to be people who are not only crazy for their pets, but who have a fine appreciation for art.

Henry's portraits can be found in private collections the world over in such varied locations as Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York, Kansas City, Savannah, Charleston, Sante Fe, and Aspen. Art enthusiasts such as Paige Powell, an avid art collector who worked closely with Andy Warhol and curated shows for Jean-Michael Basquiat, are among Henry's many collectors. Prominent international clients of Henry's include the Marquis de Brante, Claire de Mailly Nesle, Charles Garnett, as well as clients in London, Sydney and Budapest.

Henry lives in Los Angeles and has painted pet portraits for the movers and shakers in the Hollywood film scene such as Gus Van Sant (Director of GOOD WILL HUNTING), Alan Poul (Executive Producer for SIX FEET UNDER), Jim Hertzfeld (Screenwriter for MEET THE PARENTS).

Henry's artwork can be seen on episodes of JOAN OF ARCADIA. He was commissioned to do a portrait of Bruiser, Elle Woods Chihuahua in LEGALLY BLONDE 2. His work has also appeared in the film classic HOME FOR THE HOLLIDAYS, in TV docudramas, and on THE CHRISTOPHER LOWELL SHOW Showcasing Los Angeles Designers.

Though Henry has developed a steady clientele through word of mouth from collectors, demand for his work has grown considerably due to the showcasing of his talents through interviews with THE ANIMAL RADIO NETWORK, FORBES MAGAZINE, ARTS AND ANTIQUES MAGAZINE, ANGELENO MAGAZINE, HOUSE AND GARDEN, SET DECORE, and THE WALL STREET JOURNAL.
