In order to let our professional artists turn photo into oil painting and help you create a memorable present, first you should order the painting in this specific medium. Just upload your picture and our artists will start turning it into a unique, personalized oil painting as soon as possible.  The drawing procedure consists of 3 stages: 

1. Initially, we delineate the chosen photograph using the thinnest brush/pencil.
2. The next step is to outline the face/landscape lines with the light color.
3. After filling in the basic zones, our artist adds details in darker colors and continues to construct the masterpiece.

Keep in mind that you can easily reach out to our customer support and ask them to let you preview your oil painting in progress.

Since the complexity of the picture and your specific needs require different amounts of effort for our artists, we calculate the price based on these three things.
