Custom Landscape Painting from Your Photo
A landscape painting works best when it holds the one view you remember, not every view from the trip. Start from the photograph that makes you feel you are back there.
Picking the one view to paint
Check that the photo has something near you, something further off and a sky you like. A path, a fence or a boat gives the eye a way into the scene. Wide panoramas ask for a wide canvas, and a tall one suits a single tree or a waterfall, so say which shape your wall can take.
Weather, season and hour
The same hillside is a different painting at dawn, under midday haze and at dusk. If your photograph was taken in flat grey light, say in your request what the light was like when you stood there.
Two photographs of one place
Send a second picture when the sky is better in one shot and the ground in another, and say which part to take from each.
Delivery
Shipping is free and tracked, handled by UPS or DHL, so the canvas can be followed to your door.
Two ways to turn your photographs into a painting
Request a faithful, neutral photo-to-painting reproduction, or ask the studio for a more expressive artistic interpretation. Both are hand-painted in oil on canvas.
Faithful photo reproduction
Faces, setting, colours and proportions remain close to your reference, without copying a famous painter's style.
Creative interpretation
Tell us the mood, palette and brushwork you prefer, and the studio will propose an artistic direction from your references.
Custom painting questions
Can you paint my photo faithfully without copying a famous artist's style?
Yes. Choose the faithful, neutral direction and the studio will preserve the people, setting, colours and proportions of your reference while translating it into a hand-painted oil painting.
Can I request a more artistic interpretation?
Yes. Choose the creative direction and describe the mood, palette and brushwork you want. Your quote confirms what is feasible before any painting begins.
Can you combine several photographs in one painting?
Yes. Several reference photographs can be combined into one coherent composition. Mention who or what must appear, the preferred background and any details that must not be changed.
Will I see the painting before it ships?
Yes. When your painting is finished, we send you a photo of it before it ships. If anything needs adjusting, we correct it before the painting is dispatched.
