For Scottish fold owners

Scottish fold pet portraits

The Scottish Fold is a portrait the second the ears do their thing. Get the fold right, get the round head right, and the rest of the painting is just palette.

The fold is the entire breed

Scottish Folds come in three fold grades — single fold (tips bent forward), double fold (pressed tighter against the skull), triple fold (tightest, almost flat). We read which fold your cat carries and holds it exactly. Straight-eared littermates (Scottish Straights) still read as the breed through round head and body geometry.

Round geometry, every style

Library, Tudor, Watercolor, and Cardinal all flatter the round head and large round eyes. Cardinal pairs the breed's calm bearing with ceremonial dress that suits most Folds. The breed's owl-like frontal symmetry suits any portrait that wants the subject facing forward — and most Scottish Folds do, naturally, in source photos.
