Portrait Painting Blog

Have a military portrait turned into an oil painting.  Commemorate the service of a veteran or active member of the military with a custom military portrait painting.

We have completed portrait paintings for nearly every division of the armed services – Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force, and others.

A custom painting takes about a month to complete.  The photo below is just an example of the skill of our artists.

Our artists are skilled at creating amazing oil paintings, and this skill can be applied to more than just portraits.

Today, we will focus on creating custom restaurant art.  There are hundreds of things to worry about when opening up a new restaurant – decor is one of those things.

If you have a concept for a restaurant but need art to take it to the next level, we can help.  Our artist can take your concept and turn it into an oil painting.  The decor of a diner can make or break it.  We can create art that is small or is ten feet high and wide.  We can fill your blanks walls with art your customers will talk about.

Our custom oil painting service is very affordable.  Commissioning custom artwork does not have to be expensive; you don’t need to break the bank to make your new business look amazing.

If you are interested in our services, please contact us.

The customer provided us the picture below.  Unfortunately, the head of the gentleman was slightly cut off in the original.  The customer wanted us to complete the painting but didn’t want the head cut off.  We were able to complete the painting without a problem.

We turned a photo of a Chevy Chevelle SS into a beautiful painting.  We took out the cars behind the Chevelle so the painting focused solely on the red beauty.

Mother’s Day is more than a month away, but it’s never too early to start shopping for a gift.

A custom portrait painting makes a great Mother’s Day gift.  But, if you plan on giving this on Mother’s Day, you should place your order as soon as possible.

It takes almost a month to complete a painting, so now is the time to order.  If you order in the next few days, we can guarantee arrival before Mother’s Day.

We can turn almost any photo into a painting, but some photos make better Mother’s Day gifts.  Most mothers love pictures of their entire family; you could consider turning a family photo into a painting.  Or a picture of your mother and father together.  Even if you don’t have the entire family in one photo, we can combine photos to make one painting.

A custom portrait painting starts at only $179.

We just turned this beautiful beach wedding photo into a painting.  The customer was thrilled with the result.

24″ x 20″ – Oil on Canvas

We receive some very kind words from a customer we did a portrait for recently.  We posted a picture of the painting on the blog and the customer posted the following comment…

This painting has turned out so much better than we could have imagined. After searching warehouses of paintings for something different, we thought… “Why can’t we find one painting that has a special meaning to us?” We were so tired of finding paintings of cafes, flowers, oceans and cats dressed like people… none of which had OUR story attached. This story… our 3 year old grandson Gabe searching for birds inside a knot hole in the side of an old barn.

We were worried about spending money for a painting, but Portrait Painting is very professional and delivers ON TIME. Thanks for helping us to make this memory a bit more permanent and easier to share.

This comment was posted by Judy – the grandmother of the boy in the picture.

The customer below provided us with a large photo to work with.  Our artist was able to see all the details in the photo and turn into a great 20″ x 24″ portrait painting.

The first photo is the original photo while the second one is a picture of the actual painting.

We turned the photo below into an oil painting.  You’ll notice the girl in the front is not smiling, but the customer wanted the painting done with the girl smiling.  The customer was able to provide us with a photo in which the girl was smiling and the result is a beautiful 30″ x 20″ oil painting.

Do you have a boat lover in your family?  If you need a gift for a nautical enthusiast, then you may want to consider a custom boat painting.

Our portrait artists have years of experience.  We can do a painting of a canoe, yacht, sailboat – heck, even a submarine.  I’ve attached a photo of a yacht painting we recently completed.  So far, this is the most expensive vessel we’ve painted.
