Heirloom: a classical oil painting of your own photo
Warm ochre and umber, controlled brushwork, thick paint in the lights — the look of a portrait that has hung in the family for a century, made from one phone photo, from $69.
Best for. Almost any photo. Pets and people alike, in their own surroundings, which are kept and painted loosely rather than replaced.
Where it hangs. Living rooms, hallways and studies with warm wood and warm light. It is the safest choice and the one we paint first, free.
The texture. Medium relief: the highlights on fur, hair and cloth stand up; the background stays quiet.
How to start. Upload one photo, see this style painted free in about fifteen seconds, then leave an email to see the other five and to make up to three free adjustments. You approve a full-resolution proof before anything prints; sizes run from 8×10 to 36×48 inches, from $69.
