When we receive a high quality photo, it makes the artist job a lot easier.  We received the photo below from a customer, and all we had to do is a little cropping.  The result was a stunning 30″ x 36″ oil painting.

What’s really stunning about this painting is how the artist was able to replicate the details on the face.  The details are nearly exact and the color is rich and natural.

Our company has done all types of paintings.  Some of these paintings are more unique than others.  A couple weeks ago a person contacted us about doing a cat portrait, but it wasn’t your typical portrait.

This person really liked a painting done by Eugène Delacroix and wanted her cat painted in a similar fashion. The customer emailed us two photos, one of her cat and one of the painting she liked. I’ve attached the two pictures below, and below those pictures is a picture of the completed painting.

And here is the completed painting.

Working Magic

January 7th, 2010

Here’s another example of our team working magic.

We received the two images below from a customer.  Here was the customers exact request.

I have a request to combine two pictures into one portrait. The primary picture is of my two friends sitting in a military sidecar unit. The second picture is of their daughter who was not even born at the time the original picture was taken. Since my friends are sitting on the motorcycle seat, as if they were driving it, I think they would enjoy it if I incorporated their daughter into the portrait as if she were their passenger.

To facilitate requests like this, we have a photoshop person on staff to create mock-ups.  The mock-up below was created and approved by the customer.  Unfortunately, the photo of the girl wasn’t the highest quality, but our team was able to work with it.

Side Car Mockup

The mock-up was presented to our artist, and our artist produced the beautiful 30″ x 36″ oil painting below.

Two Dogs Lounging Around

January 7th, 2010

We recently finished turning the photo below into a painting.  This painting was a little difficult because the shadows on the original photo were rather harsh.  It was hard for the artist to see all the details on each dog, but our artist still did a great job.

Most photos we receive are not professionally taken.  Sometimes it’s difficult working with photos taken by point-and-shoot digital cameras, but we try our best.

Our customer sent us the photo below and wanted it turned into a portrait painting.  It’s not a bad photo, but the photo we received was not a very high resolution.  The photo posted below is the actual resolution we received.  Luckily, we have some of the most talented portrait artists around.  They were able to turn a low resolution photo into a beautiful oil painting.

The second photo is a picture of the painting.  It is a 20″ x 24″ oil on canvas.

Portrait of a Pug

January 4th, 2010

For all you pug lovers out there, our talented pet portrait artist recently completed a painting of a cute pug puppy.  The painting was done in oil on a 16″ x 20″ canvas.  The customer wanted the background to be a blue color.  So, we we removed a couple objects in the background and painted a solid blue background.

The first photo is the original photo and the second photo is the painting.
