This distinguished product was designed to meet the most discriminating of artistic tastes for a lasting portrait of your family or child. Beautifully blended mixed-media portraits start as a beautifully created photographic composition of light, color, composition and expression. After retouching and artwork, brush strokes are individually added by hand to transform it into a beautiful painted piece. To achieve the best of both the photography and painted canvas, special attention is given to the face, eyes, lips and expression. Delicate and soft strokes in the features of the faces keeps the likeness of our loved ones familiar and realistic, reminiscent of the times before photography when the world’s most renowned artists painted for a sense of realism.
As the process moves away from the faces and into the clothing, more recognizable brush strokes are visible and the painting begins to come to life.

Once this step is complete, we produce the fine art giclée print. Pigment-based archival inks are laid onto the finest acid-free canvas for a product of superior archival quality, light fastness and stability ensuring this portrait will endure through this generation and serve many others to come. The giclée canvas is then pulled over a wooden stretcher frame and prepped for hand embellishments and a brushed acrylic clear finish. Embellishments of color are carefully added to enhance surface relief and depth of the image. The result is a mixed-media piece that is breathtaking…
