Digital Art and Patterns
Digital Art & Patterns
Hand-drawn on an iPad, these digital drawings are stylized to look like a pencil or pastel drawing but can be emailed and printed with the ease of a digital file.
You will receive one high-quality digital file, sized to the format you prefer.
Or, create your own embroidered piece! Whether you’d like to stitch your pet or have an idea for a unique pattern, I’m happy to help!
Patterns and digital art are available for commission at any time. Email grumpydogdesigns@kendallkulper.com to place an order.

Frequently asked questions
What do I receive?
For digital pieces, you’ll receive one image file (PNG, 300 PPI) with your artwork, sized to print at whatever size you prefer (typically 8”x8” or 8”x10”). For patterns, you’ll receive one JPG image file or PDF with your pattern, sized to the hoop you’ll be working with (6” unless otherwise requested).
What is included in the embroidery kit?
Each embroidery kit comes with your pattern pre-printed onto water-soluble pattern paper, white canvas fabric, black (310) DMC embroidery floss, a size 7 embroidery needle, and a 6” hoop (additional sizes also available upon request). You’ll also receive access to my pet portrait tutorial, which includes detailed information about how to stitch and finish your piece. The $25 fee includes shipping to anywhere in the US.
What is water-soluble pattern paper?
Water-soluble pattern paper is like a sticker you attach to your fabric and embroider over. When you’re all done, soak your piece in warm water and the pattern paper will melt away, leaving your embroidered design behind!
How do I order?
Digital portraits and patterns are not subject to my commission status, meaning you can request a digital portrait or pattern at any time! All you have to do is send me an email to get started. Typically, I can turn around your piece within a week.
Where/how can I print my artwork?
There are a number of companies that will print and even frame your art for you! I’ve had good experiences with Finer Works.
How do you create the art?
All the pieces are made on my iPad using Procreate and an Apple pencil. Black and white portraits are drawn to look like a traditional pencil drawing, while color pencils are done in the style of pastels.
