I was hesitant

I was hesitant about purchasing a painting online from someone I didn't know. However, I like my watercolor painting and am pleased that I made my reservations!! The procedure was simple, and I was allowed to make modifications along the way... now I have a unique souvenir of something very close to my heart!! This was a fantastic experience that I will definitely repeat!

All expectations were exceeded

The outcome exceeded all expectations, and the process was fantastic. Completely smooth and efficient. I adored the portrait and wholeheartedly suggest it to anybody looking to keep their memories via painting.

Communication is incredibly great.

Communication is fantastic. It didn't take long in the process for me to realize that my money was being spent on a company that I could trust and knew would leave me happy.

Masterpiece of Memory

I am astounded by how simple the procedure was and astounded by the stunning painting of my favorite photograph. I trusted Photo2painting to select the greatest artist for my painting, and Jeff exceeded my expectations! I would (and have before) recommended this company to make a work of art for anyone.

Exceptional Memory!

I bought this commission for my son, our house had been burnt 10 years ago and all pictures of ourselves had been burnt as well. So, it is unbelievable what photo2painting’s artist has done - he’s created the exact copy of the only childhood photograph of my son (which I had in old iPad). This painting is truly amazing with so much detail and personality. This was the best gift I could have ever given him. Absolutely beautiful! Highly recommend! Very heartfelt gift. We can pass down for generations!

Tears of happiness!

Photo2Painting and its artists are amazing! My Grandpa passed away right before I graduated from university. He was granma's best friend and we were very close. He has been gone for 10 years this year. It's been hard on my grandma this year and I wanted to give her something special for Christmas. I had an oil painting of my grandpa and her.Her reaction spoke volumes! She loved it so much! She was crying and I was crying! It was the most special moment to get to share with her! Very positive feedback from me!

I love my Painting!

The painting is a stunning representation of our dog. When we first saw the painting, we were all in tears. Every day, we miss our dog, but looking at this painting helps us feel as though we still get to see him. Such a great way to remember our beloved dog. The customer service is excellent as well. Super helpful, easy to reach and very responsive. The artwork is excellent, and I am thankful to the artist for creating it. It turned out far better than I had hoped. Honestly, the experience with Photo2painting.comwas nothing but excellent.

Grandad: I love you!

I saw videos of reveals for this site on Facebook. Of course, I was doubtful at first, but after reading several testimonials reviews, I knew I had to try. It's worth every penny. From the time you place your purchase until you receive your painting, you will receive regular updates. That alone is a huge relief. This entire experience was incredible. I will absolutely use this site again and have already recommended it to others. The artwork of my dad and his grandfather Sam (who died many years ago) was flawless. Julie has incredible talent. Because of how lifelike it appeared, my partner, our friends, and family couldn't believe it was genuine! I was quite pleased with my experience.

What kind of pencil pet portrait should you order?

Choosing the right pencil pet portrait depends on your personal style and where you will display it. Is the portrait a gift or for yourself? Consider what best captures your pet’s personality and the environment the artwork will be in.

If it’s for yourself, think about where you’d like to put the portrait. A smaller portrait would be perfect for your desk, while a larger one could be the centerpiece of a living room.

For a gift, consider the recipient’s style and the occasion. A pencil portrait of their pet makes a lovely gift for any pet owner, especially for birthdays or memorials.

The tone of the portrait matters. Do you want to capture joy, calmness, or playfulness? Our team will help you choose the right style and approach for your vision, ensuring the portrait serves as a heartfelt tribute to your beloved pet.

What are the most popular mediums for pet portraits?

For colored pencil portraits, we use high-quality materials that give a timeless and sophisticated look. The detail in colored pencil allows us to capture the texture of fur, the sparkle in your pet’s eyes, and their unique features.

Unlike oil or acrylics, black pencil drawings are more subtle, focusing on fine detail and soft shading. This medium is perfect for capturing the subtlety of your pet’s expression, whether it’s calm or full of energy.

How do you order a pencil pet portrait?

When ordering a custom pencil pet portrait, start by choosing a reference photo that shows your pet’s personality. Providing other photos can ensure a more accurate and detailed representation of your pet by highlighting features such as the color of fur, eyes, nose, and ear positions. Then, choose the size and any specific details you want us to focus on, such as an expression or pose.

Once you’ve chosen your photo, you can select the delivery timeframe. Our standard process takes 30 days, but we offer an express service if you need it sooner, with delivery in as little as 17 days.

After confirming the details with our team, we’ll send you a draft for approval. Once you’re happy with the design, the final artwork is created. You pay 10% upfront, and the balance after you’ve approved the finished artwork.

How do you care for your colored pencil pet portrait?

Pencil portraits are delicate and should be handled with care. Keep your portrait in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight to prevent fading. Dust the artwork gently with a soft, dry cloth or brush.

Frame the portrait behind glass to protect it from dust and environmental factors. Using UV-protective glass will also help prevent light damage.

If you’re giving the portrait as a gift, share these care instructions with the recipient to help them preserve it for years to come.

Can you customize your commissioned pencil portrait?

Yes! You have complete control over the details of your commissioned pencil pet portrait. Whether you want a specific background or want to add a personal touch such as your pet’s name or a meaningful quote, we can work with your ideas.

Our process is collaborative, and we welcome your input throughout. From concept to final artwork, we ensure every detail meets your expectations. Our skilled artists create the artwork to your individual specifications, keeping you informed with updates and opportunities for revisions. Once you approve the draft, our skilled artists bring your custom pet portrait to life.

What are the benefits of pencil pet portraits?

Pencil pet portraits are timeless and sophisticated, capturing your pet in detail that only this medium can. Each portrait is unique, showcasing your pet’s individuality in a way that a photograph can’t.

A pencil portrait is a beautiful addition to any home and suits any interior style. It can also be a very personal gift, a lasting tribute to a beloved companion.

Beyond their emotional value, pencil portraits are a form of personal art that adds sophistication to your space. Each piece is one-of-a-kind, crafted with care and attention to detail—a true keepsake.

What are the downsides of pencil pet portraits?

While pencil pet portraits have many benefits, they are more delicate than other mediums like oil or acrylic and require careful handling. Additionally, the black-and-white nature of pencil drawings may not appeal to those who prefer color.

Because of the time and skill involved, custom pencil portraits are more expensive than prints. However, for many, the personal touch and craftsmanship are worth the investment.
