Meet Sam & Sofie - artist and muse, creating custom dog portraits at Pointelier
Hi, I’m Sam - the artist behind Pointelier - and this is my ever-curious, beach-loving muse, Sofie, a spirited Hungarian Vizsla with a nose for friendship and a heart full of joy.
I’ve been a professional multimedia designer for over 25 years, and an artist since I was young child. I work across traditional and digital mediums to capture stories, emotions, and the beautiful little details that make pointer breed dogs so special. Being a fellow pointing dog owner, I commit to deliver custom dog portraits that are meticulously hand-crafted, ensuring a personal touch that captures your dog's personality and charm.
Explore our gallery and let us create a masterpiece that honors the joy your furry friend brings to your life.
We’re so glad you found us.
Our Artistic Philosophy
At Pointelier, we are dedicated to creating personalized art pieces that celebrate the tradition of creating art by hand while still embracing the advancements that digital technology brings. Because of the support we receive from people like you, this allows us to stand for human-made contributions within the artistic field, without which, AI would not have had any data to train on.
We are not against AI. We are for humans. Like many others, we are morally conflicted about the use of AI in art, and do not want to add to the ever-growing market devaluing human craftmanship and skill. As such, none of our art on sale are generated by AI, all are made by our atelier master, Sam.
We recognize our decision to resist this technology may mean we are unable to survive the progress it brings. But for now, we choose to swim upstream.
While we may use AI to generate marketing content, we will never generate a customer canine portrait using AI. Let's remember where we came from, together.
