Founder Message
Welcome to Pawrichor!
I’m Mabel Whittaker, a lifelong animal companion, a dedicated artist, and the proud founder of Pawrichor. Not too long ago, I was searching for a way to honor my gentle soul, Rowan. I wanted a portrait that truly captured his calm gaze and warm spirit—something that celebrated our bond. But nothing I found felt quite right, so I set out to create it myself. And that’s how Pawrichor came to life.
It was a journey of late nights, countless sketches, and many cups of tea. But when I held that very first portrait of Rowan, I felt a warmth and comfort that words can hardly describe. It was more than just art; it was like having him close again, in a way I could hold onto forever. From that day forward, my mission has been to bring this same feeling to others who share a special bond with their pets.
At Pawrichor, we believe that our pets are truly part of the family. Each portrait is carefully crafted to be more than decoration—it’s a keepsake, a way to remember and celebrate the love that our pets give us. Every piece is created with care, love, and a deep understanding of the joy pets bring into our lives.
Thank you for being here. It’s an honor to be part of your journey and to help preserve that beautiful connection you share with your pet. If Pawrichor can bring you even a fraction of the joy and comfort it brought me, then this journey has been worthwhile.
With warmth,
Mabel Whittaker
