A cat portrait in the Museum style
Your subject alone on a single deep olive-umber field, lit from one side — the way museum portraits are painted — from $49, made to order.
What Museum does with a cat. One animal on a single deep olive-umber ground, lit from one side. Leashes, sofas and carpets disappear; the face reads from across the room because nothing competes with it.
The photo. Window light, eyes open and level with the camera, a slight turn of the head. Cats rarely hold still, so take ten photos and upload the sharpest; the preview is free.
The size. 12×18 to 16×24 — cats suit smaller, jewel-like sizes on a dark ground; 24×36 if the cat is the room's main character.
How to start. Upload one photo and see it painted in Museum free, in about 20 seconds. Your first three paintings are free; leave an email for as many more as you like, and change up to five details free. A person checks the full-resolution proof, and you see it before anything prints; if it isn't right, we repaint it until it is.
