The most common subjects for
photo to painting artworks are:
- Couple
portrait - photos from weddings, honeymoons,
travel , or any other moment that a couple wants
to cherish. Sometimes one of the couple buys it
as a surprise for the other. Sometimes a couple
receives a painting as a wedding gift or
anniversary gift. You can just imagine the
reaction of the person who receives such a
special personal gift.....
- Child
/ baby portrait - Surprise someone with a
painting from photo of his grandchild. Friends
of yours celebrate their little boy's birthday -
surprise them with their child painting so they
will have an everlasting memory of him at that
age.
- Family painted portrait - Family oil portraits are a beautiful present. A painted portrait of your aged parents, a painting from photo of your whole family together, you and your kids, etc.
- Friends
- You want to buy your friend a present which is
personal and which will always remind him of
your great friendship- find a photo of the two
of you from a trip or a party, or any special
moment that both of you would like to cherish.
- Pet
portrait - Your beloved dog, cat, horse....
The photo can be of both of you , or only your
pet. A pet portrait can be a very unique gift
for the pet lover.
- Scenery - Instead of buying a painting of scenery which means nothing to you, why don't you choose a beautiful scenery photo from one of your trips and hang it on the wall to remember always. Buy it for yourself or for a friend who loves a special landscape as much as you do.
There are many other photo to painting
ideas: A painting of the house you grew up in,
your first car, etc. Any photo that you love for
yourself or as a special gift for your loved
ones, we will be happy to turn into a painting.

Basically, if our artists can
clearly see the details of your photo we can
make a painted portrait from it. Still, from our
experience, we recommend to pay attention to:
- Send photos that flatter the photographed person. If you don't like the way you look in the photo, and if you think that your smile doesn't look real or your nose looks too big, please try to pick another photo. Don't expect the artists to make the person look much better than he looks in the photo.
- Try to send photos with the highest
resolution. If your photo is less than 100 KB
size, its resolution may be too low and our
artists may have difficulties to make a good
painting from a photo that doesn't clearly show
details.
- Pay attention to the background. You have a beautiful photo of your little boy, for example, but the background is filled with details that will detract from the painted portrait. In such a case, you can tell our artists to use a one color background of any color you choose. Just mention it in the comments box, right after you email the photo.

My
painting order: |
|
| |
|
|
| |
| Yes. Once the painting from your photo is ready, we will contact you to review it online. Most of our customers are happy with their first preview. However, if you feel that any modifications should be made, please send us your feedback, we will make the requested modifications and send it back to you for confirmation. Only then, the painting is sent to you. | | |
|
|
| |
| When you place your order, just after emailing your photos, there will be a special instructions text box where you will be able to explain what your special request is. We can create "magic" with your original photos: we can combine figures from different photos into one painting, changing the background, eliminating figures and objects, creating color paintings from black and white photos and even painting from damaged or old photos.Check for
