1. Classic portrait painting - black floating frame
A classic portrait painting from a photo: the gaze, the smile and the soft transitions of light in the hair are painted layer by layer in oil. The black floating frame gives a modern gallery look that suits most homes.
2. Sibling portrait - two sisters in a gold frame
Sibling portraits are among our most-ordered family paintings - often as a gift for parents or grandparents. Here two sisters are brought together in one motif with a classic gold frame. We can also combine children from different photos in the same painting.
3. Portrait of a grandmother - gold frame
A warm and lively portrait of the head of the family - the kind of painting that gets passed down. A gift for a grandmother (or from her, to the whole family) that moves everyone when it is unwrapped. The gold frame underlines the timeless look.
4. Graduation portrait - the graduation gift with a difference
An occasion many people do not think of: the portrait of the newly qualified graduate. The cap, the gown and the proud pose - immortalised in oil to mark a milestone. A graduation gift for the Matura, an apprenticeship or a degree that hangs on the wall for the rest of their life.
5. Wedding painting - the detail that tells the whole story
A wedding painting does not have to show faces: here it is the bride's hand on the groom's lapel, the bouquet and the lace dress that carry the whole story. The oak frame matches the natural, Scandinavian look. Perfect as an anniversary or wedding-day gift.
6. Couple's painting - the engagement by the sea
The sunset light, the ring and the gaze - a moment that deserves more than a phone screen. Couple's paintings from engagement or holiday photos are among the most romantic gifts for a partner we make.
7. Portrait in muted tones - black frame
An artistic portrait kept in subdued, almost monochrome tones - proof that a painting from a photo can also be stylish and gallery-like. If you only have a black-and-white photo, we can paint from it - in colour or in exactly this look.
How to order your own
All the paintings above were made with the same process: you upload your photo, choose the size and, if you like, a frame, and our portrait painter gets started. You receive pictures along the way and approve before we send. Read the whole process here.
