Custom Portrait

This isn't a print-on-canvas service. Every portrait we create is painted by hand by a trained artist, working from your reference photo, your description, or a mix of both. The result is something a screenshot can never be: a piece with brushwork, depth, and presence that changes how a room feels the moment you walk into it.

Why a Painted Portrait Is Different

Photographs fade, get lost in cloud storage, or sit unopened in a folder you forget exists. A commissioned portrait does the opposite — it demands to be seen. It becomes the piece people notice first when they walk into your home, the gift that gets talked about years later, and often the one artwork in the house that actually has a story behind it.

There's also a permanence to it that digital photography can't replicate. A well-painted, well-framed portrait is something you hand down. It's not backed up on a server — it's on your wall, and it stays there.

Choosing the Right Medium

Portraits can be created in oil, acrylic, watercolor, or fine pen-and-ink. Oil and acrylic give richer, more dramatic depth. Watercolor lends itself to softer, more nostalgic renderings. During your consultation, we'll help you match the medium to both your reference photo and your room.

How the Process Works

01

Submit Your Request

Fill out our custom order form, upload your reference photo, and share any ideas, inspirations, or specific details you want included.

02

Consultation & Quotation

An art consultant reviews your request and schedules a conversation. You'll receive a clear, itemized quotation based on size, medium, and complexity.

03

Creation & Review

Our artists begin with a preliminary sketch or mock-up for approval before paint touches canvas. Once signed off, the final piece is carefully created by hand.

04

Delivery & Follow-Up

Your finished portrait is professionally packaged and delivered, and we follow up to make sure you're genuinely happy with the result.

Timelines vary depending on size and complexity, but most portrait commissions are completed within a few weeks from final sketch approval.

Framing Your Portrait

A commissioned portrait deserves framing that matches its craftsmanship. Once your painting is complete, we can pair it with museum-grade UV-protective glass, archival matting, and a frame profile chosen specifically for the piece.

Many clients commission the portrait and finalize framing together in a single visit, saving a return trip and ensuring your finished painting goes straight from canvas to a properly protected, ready-to-hang piece.

A custom portrait is one of the few gifts that genuinely can't be duplicated. Explore how our clients celebrate milestone moments.

Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of reference photo do you need?

Clear, high-resolution photographs work best because they allow our artists to capture skin tones, lighting, and facial expressions accurately. If you only have older or grainy photographs, our artists can often work with them or combine multiple references during the consultation stage.

Can I request changes during the painting process?

Yes. We always begin with a sketch or digital mock-up for your review before painting starts. During the process, we ensure your feedback is incorporated so the finished artwork matches your vision.

How long does a portrait commission take?

Most custom portraits are completed within 3 to 4 weeks, depending on the chosen medium and level of detail. If you need a piece ready by a specific date or anniversary, let us know during your consultation.
