Frequently Asked Questions

What photo quality do I need to provide?

Higher resolution photos produce better painted results, but we can work with most photos. Ideally, provide photos with clear focus on faces/subjects, good lighting, and at least 1000 pixels on the shortest side. We can work with older or lower-resolution photos, though results may vary.

Can you remove backgrounds or change settings in the painting?

Yes! We can remove distracting backgrounds and replace them with solid colors, artistic backgrounds, or custom environments. This is perfect for making subjects stand out or creating idealized painted settings from imperfect photography.

How realistic will the painted result look?

Painted photos intentionally have an artistic, painted appearance rather than photorealistic look. We maintain recognizable likeness while adding artistic brushstrokes, color enhancement, and painting aesthetics. Level of detail vs. artistic interpretation is customizable based on your preferences.

Can you combine multiple photos into one painted artwork?

Yes! We can create composite painted artworks combining subjects from different photos—perfect for family portraits when everyone was never photographed together, or for memorial pieces combining loved ones from various time periods.

What file format will I receive for printing?

We deliver high-resolution JPEG or TIFF files optimized for printing. Files are sized appropriately for your intended print dimensions (which you specify) and formatted to professional printing standards. We can provide guidance on finding quality printing services if needed.

Can you replicate a specific artist's style or painting technique?

Yes! If you have reference images showing the artistic style you desire—whether a famous artist's work or a specific painting technique—we can replicate that aesthetic in converting your photo to painting. Simply provide visual references during consultation.
