Excellent Customer Reviews
Words Cannot describe my appreciation
I can't say enough about how great Photo2Painting has been for me. From the minute I emailed the image to the painter to the "OMG" surprise of the painting arriving ten days early at my front door. The support staff was fantastic. They answered all of my questions and concerns, and their communication and back-and-forth with me left me completely comfortable and satisfied with having chosen Photo2Painting to paint such an important portrait. However, the biggest surprise was how amazing the painting looked and how realistic the portrait was. Thank you so much for this wonderful present.
Daisy Harris
United StatesIt's a fantastic present.
This artwork was created for friends who had recently lost their beloved dog, Charlie. As soon as they received the painting, they contacted me. They were ecstatic, claiming that the artist had perfectly portrayed their pet Charlie on the canvas. This is the third painting I've ordered from Photo2Painting, and each time I've been delighted with the results. Thank you!
Noah Murphy
United StatesWonderful experience. Beautiful work.
We are overjoyed with the outcome of our artwork. As a birthday gift, we had a snapshot of a landscape painted, and it turned out beautifully. The lighting is great, and the entire picture is vibrant. Working with the artist was also a breeze, and he was able to capture precisely what we were looking for. In the future, I will undoubtedly use Photo2Painting. A big thank you from me!

What kind of custom painting should you commission?
Choosing the right custom painting to commission depends on its purpose. Is it for personal enjoyment or as a gift? We offer various painting types, including landscapes, pet, couple, family, and individual portraits, each tailored to different preferences and settings.
Consider the intended space for the artwork if it's for yourself. Is it a vibrant centerpiece for the living room or a serene landscape for a study? The setting influences your choice, be it a lively family portrait or a beautiful landscape.
If the painting is a gift, think about the recipient’s tastes and the occasion. A couple portrait could commemorate an anniversary, while a pet portrait might delight a pet owner.
Consider the vibe you want the painting to convey. A colorful artwork might energize a room, while a subdued piece could add tranquility. Our team will help you select the perfect medium, style, and subject to match your vision and the painting’s intended atmosphere.
Personalized artwork is the perfect way to cherish memories. Whether you want to remember your loved ones, specific landscape, a pet, Photo2Painting has got your back. Our hand-painted portraits will stand the test of time. If you are not sure what kind of painting to order, go through our gallery of finished painting examples and get an inspiration!
What are the most popular mediums for custom art?
The popular medium for your custom painting depends on the type of painting you are choosing. For instance, people ordering couple or individual portraits often choose oil paints. They are rich and flexible, with unique colors that can capture expressions and details beautifully. Since oil paints dry slowly, artists can build the texture to give a painting more life.
Acrylics dry faster and are more versatile. They work well for modern art styles and abstract paintings due to their ability to create sharp lines and solid colors. Acrylics are excellent for vibrant, dynamic subjects. This makes them a popular choice for family portraits or personalized pet paintings.
Watercolors are more delicate and soft, with a translucent look that is perfect for depicting serene landscapes or gentle romantic illustrations. They bring a sense of calmness and tranquility.
There are no hard and fast rules when it comes to art. You should choose a medium depending on the atmosphere you want your painting to convey. Our team will help you select the perfect one for you!
What's the process of ordering a custom painting?
When ordering a custom painting, you start by choosing a reference picture that captures the essence of what you want to be depicted. Next, select the style of the painting - make sure it aligns with your aesthetic preferences. You also choose the size that best fits your space.
You can then select your preferred timeframe for receiving the painting. We offer free shipping with a standard completion time of 30 days. For faster service, opt for our express option which reduces the process to 17 days.
After these selections, you’ll discuss any specifics with our team to clarify your requirements and answer any questions. Our designer then drafts an initial version of your painting. You can review the draft and confirm that everything meets your standards.
Once you approve the draft, our skilled artists begin their work. You pay only 10% upfront, with the remainder due after you approve the final piece. This process ensures that your personalized painting perfectly matches your vision and is delivered in a manner that suits your timing needs.
How can you preserve your custom painting?
Paintings can truly stand the test of time if taken care of properly. The longevity of a painting significantly depends on the materials and mediums used, as well as how it's displayed and cared for.
For oil paintings, avoid direct sunlight and extremely humid environments to prevent fading and cracking. Dust gently and occasionally with a soft, dry brush. Oil paintings are perfect for personalized artwork since they don't need much care compared to other mediums.
Acrylics are more flexible and resistant to climate changes, but they should still be kept out of direct sunlight to maintain color integrity. Again, dust with a soft cloth or brush.
When it comes to watercolor paintings, these should be displayed under glass to protect them from moisture and environmental contaminants. Keep them away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.
At Photo 2 Painting, you can also order custom frames alongside your paintings. A high-quality frame can help preserve your painting better. Make sure that the frames are sealed to keep out dust and insects, and use UV-protective glass to shield the painting from UV rays.
Maintain a stable environment with consistent temperature and humidity to help preserve your artwork. Avoid placing paintings near heat sources or in direct sunlight.
If you're gifting a custom painting, share these preservation tips with the recipient to help them keep their artwork in prime condition for years to come.
Can you customize your commissioned painting?
Yes, you can fully customize your commissioned painting to match your unique artistic vision and personal preferences. We can translate your ideas and emotions into art and make sure that the piece is tailored to your desires.
When ordering a custom painting, you have the freedom to choose different backgrounds and color palettes, allowing the artwork to reflect the ambiance or mood you wish to convey. Including personalized text in your painting is another way to add a meaningful touch, whether it's a date, a name, or a special quote.
Our design process is highly collaborative. Our designer works closely with you to incorporate all these personalized details. You can discuss and modify elements like background styles, color schemes, and text so everything fits your artistic vision.
Once the design meets your approval, the detailed blueprint is then handed over to our skilled artist who brings your vision to life. Every aspect of the painting is crafted to your specifications before any actual painting begins.
What are the advantages of custom paintings?
Custom paintings can enhance both personal spaces and emotional connections. These artworks are inherently personal and help you cherish memories. They reflect individual preferences, stories, or memories. We want each piece to be as unique as its owner. This personalization makes custom paintings highly valuable, both emotionally and as unique decor elements.
When you commission a custom painting, you engage in a direct collaboration with an artist. This interaction enriches the creative experience. It allows you to influence its development from the initial concept to the final piece.
The emotional connection to custom paintings is significant. Each painting captures a cherished memory or moment and reminds us powerfully of our treasured experiences. These artworks are specifically tailored to complement your home's decor, matching color schemes and styles to add to the overall aesthetic appeal.
Custom paintings also make thoughtful and original gifts for special occasions, reflecting deep consideration and personal connection that standard gifts cannot match. Beyond their emotional and decorative value, these paintings can be good investments. Their worth increases and can provide economic benefits as the art market fluctuates. Unique pieces by talented artists may be appreciated over time, especially if the artist gains wider recognition.
What are the disadvantages of custom paintings?
Custom paintings come with unique benefits but also have potential disadvantages that are important to consider.
Customized paintings tend to be more expensive than ready-made artwork due to the personalized effort, skill, and time involved in creating each piece.
The process from initial consultation to the final product is often lengthy. This can mean a significant wait before you receive your artwork, unlike purchasing a pre-existing piece.
Also, despite thorough planning and revisions, the final painting might not always meet your expectations due to differences in personal taste and artistic interpretation.
Because custom paintings are so personalized, they may not easily fit into different decor if your environment or preferences change. This could also limit their suitability as gifts for others.
