Questions.
Yes. Any photo where you can see their face will work.
For a printed photo, lay it flat near a window and take a picture of it with your phone, without the flash.
We paint them comfortable and at ease, and leave out anything medical, such as a cone or a bandage. A gray muzzle stays.
If a recent photo doesn’t feel like them, an older one from a better day works just as well.
Yes. Write a short letter to your dear one, in your own words. It’s included in the price.
No. It’s painted by AI from your photo. Your letter is all your own words.
You see it free first, and the other styles are free to try.
After you order, tell us within 30 days of delivery and we’ll remake it for free or refund you in full, once any canvas is back with us.
[PAYMENT] Yes. Enter your friend’s address at checkout and we’ll send the canvas straight to them, with no price in the box.
Your painting is printed on canvas and stretched over a wooden frame, so it needs no extra frame. The hooks are already on, so it’s ready for the wall.
We show you the finished painting within one business day. Once you approve it, your digital file is ready to download, and your canvas is printed in 2 to 3 business days and arrives 2 to 5 business days later.
A digital file on its own is ready to download as soon as you order, and we email you a copy. [EMAIL]
