PICTURE TO PAINTING

I am a Glasgow painter with many years of portrait experience working from clients photos into paintings to capture the personality of your pet or loved one on an original masterpiece you can treasure always.

​

It can be quite daunting to purchase an original painting. After all, a painting is a significant investment, both financially and emotionally. But there are many reasons to choose a painting over a print or photograph. An original painting is a one-of-a-kind work of art, created by an artist's own hand using traditional art materials. It is a beautiful and unique way to decorate your home or office, and it can even be an heirloom to pass down to future generations.

​

Original paintings also have a certain emotional value that prints and photographs simply can't match. A painting is a tangible embodiment of the artist's emotions and vision, and it can evoke powerful emotions in the viewer as well. When you look at a painting, you are not only seeing the artist's interpretation of the world around them, but you are also experiencing a connection to the artist's soul.

Beautiful bespoke professionally hand painted portraits from your cherished photos of people or pets carefully created using some of the best quality artist materials like Winsor & Newton oil colours on premium cotton canvas for genuine traditional portraits for your home or office that can last generations.  

​

 Each portrait is a one off  original so the time to complete is dependent on how complicated the image, size of the painting from photo, and the number of people or pets etc.

As a rough guide an oil painting from a photo can take me 2-3 weeks or more to finish , and no two portraits would ever be exactly the same.
