Classic Oil Portrait
A traditional oil painting with a dark backdrop and single-source gallery light. No costume, no crown, just your pet.
Every example was created from an ordinary phone photo. Every portrait keeps the pet's exact markings, eye color and expression. Also works for cats.
Classic Oil Portrait paints your pet the way a portrait painter would have three centuries ago: smooth, blended brushwork on the face, looser strokes toward the edges, thin glazes in the shadows and a faint craquelure in the varnish. Rembrandt lighting from one side gives the face its depth, and the deep umber backdrop makes the eyes the whole point. This is the style closest to a commissioned painting, and it holds its own over a fireplace.
Perfect for: Living rooms and hallways, anniversary gifts, anyone who wants a painting rather than a picture.
Previewing this style with your own pet uses one of your portraits. New accounts start with three free previews, which carry a watermark. One portrait takes the watermark off a preview and gives you the full-size, print-ready file, about 1856 x 2304 pixels.
