A Different Kind of Focus
The act of painting makes you stay longer with their expression, their features, their presence. You begin to notice the curve of a smile, the line of their jaw, the way they hold still. It’s not about making something perfect. It’s about spending time looking at someone you love, with full attention.
Photo Requirements
✅ 1–3 People (or Pets): Too many faces can lose detail in painting
✅ Avoid Harsh Shadows: Choose photos with soft, even lighting
✅ High Quality: Use a clear, well-lit photo with sharp details
✅ No Direct Sunlight: Natural light is great, but avoid overexposed spots

Absolutely. The canvas is made to be frameable, and once it’s dry, it’s ready to hang or display. Many customers frame theirs as gifts or personal keepsakes.
Each kit includes your custom canvas, pre-mixed acrylic paints, a set of brushes, and a printed reference sheet. Everything you need is in the box — just add water and time.
