Risa Liu

Every brushstroke tells a story.

I’m Risa, a Melbourne-based artist who creates original watercolor and acrylic paintings inspired by the beauty of everyday life, beloved pets, and fleeting human moments. Since 2020, I’ve painted hundreds of commissioned works—from heartfelt pet portraits to vibrant people portraits—each crafted with care, warmth, and attention to detail.

My goal is simple: to capture emotion on canvas so it becomes a lasting memory. Whether it’s the gentle gaze of a dog, the energy of a wedding day, or the quiet charm of a landscape, I believe real painting connects people to something timeless and personal.

Place
your order

You can request a painting online by giving your specifications, along with a high-resolution photo of your pet.

I take about 3 to 5 days to create the painting, which you can confirm. In case, you need minor alterations, I can get that done in a jiffy.

03.

the painting

After you confirm, I will send over the painting to your address in a robust plastic case. My logistics is capable of serving customers worldwide.

Risa is so kind and talented. She is very accomodating to requests and the turn around time for orders is great. I ordered one artwork from her as a Christmas gift for a family member and I loved the end result so much I ordered a second one for another family member. Thank you!

Risa is very detailed in her work. Will bring a smile when you receive your pet portrait created by her.

This product turned out absolutely amazing. The seller was really good in accomodating my requests and made a slight tweak to it when I requested. She was so friendly and the customer service was really good. It turned out better than expected. Definitely recommend!!
