About this service
We turn a photo of someone you love into a painted or drawn portrait for a birthday, an anniversary, Mother's or Father's Day, a retirement or a thank-you to a teacher. Pick a style that suits the person, such as a classic oil painting for a grandfather, soft watercolour for a mum or a playful pop art piece for a friend, and we keep the smile and the features people know them by. It arrives as a digital picture within a day or two, so it works even for a last-minute present: send it in a message, print it as a card or put it in a small frame.

What we need from you
Up to 5 photos of the person with a sharp, well-lit face, the occasion and the style you like. Tell us anything to keep, like glasses or a favourite hat. Send photos you have the right to use, and make sure the person would be happy to receive their portrait. We do not make ID or passport photos and do not work with nudity.
We will ask you:

- What should we keep or change?

Questions and answers
Is it a real painting I can wrap?
No, it is a digital picture in a painted style. You can print it at a print shop as a card or a small framed print, or send it by message or email.
The person has passed away. Can you still make a portrait?
Yes, from a photo you have the right to use. Old or blurry photos work, but a soft face has to be partly recreated, so check the likeness carefully and ask for a revision if needed.
Can you put the person next to a celebrity?
No, we never add celebrities or other real people, and each portrait is made from one photo. We can change the background to a place or a mood instead.
Can I print it as a large canvas?
At about 1.5 megapixels the portrait suits cards, small frames and screens. A large canvas or a poster would look soft.
