A dog portrait in the Garden style
Broken colour, loose dabs of pure pigment and a garden suggested rather than described — a luminous, high-key painting from your photo, from $69.
What Garden does with a dog. Dappled light and broken colour, best for a pet photographed outdoors in a park or a yard. The coat is painted in many small dabs of pure pigment rather than a few big strokes.
The photo. Daylight, eyes in focus, taken at the dog's own eye level rather than from above. A three-quarter view paints better than straight on. For a black dog, skip the flash — the raised highlights do the work.
The size. 16×20 in a hallway or beside a bookshelf; 24×36 above the sofa. Big dogs look right big.
How to start. Upload one photo and see it painted in Garden free, in about fifteen seconds. Leave an email to see the other five styles and make up to three free adjustments. A person checks the full-resolution proof and you approve it before anything prints; if it isn't right, we repaint it free.
