Family Portrait from Photo, Couples Portrait Painting | Dejane Janede Art

Watercolor Family Portrait

Turn the photos of your family or loved ones into a heartfelt custom watercolor portrait. Each portrait is meticulously hand-painted, ensuring that the resemblance and emotion are beautifully conveyed. 
It’s a unique and thoughtful gift for Mothers and Fathers Day, birthdays, reunions, Christmas, or as a personal keepsake.
 
How It Works:
Refer to the infographic above the listing photos for the process description. You’ll have two opportunities to preview your artwork before it’s shipped to ensure it meets your expectations:
 
    •    First, you’ll receive a preliminary sketch to review the outlines of the artwork. This is your chance to request changes (see the “Managing Changes” section below for guidelines on acceptable changes).
    •    Next, you’ll receive photos of the completed artwork for final approval before shipping.
I only ship if you are happy with the result!
 
Pricing and what's included: 
To see the exact price, please select all the THREE options from the dropdown menus: the Size, the Framing / Matting option, and the Number of people.
     
    Frame selection:
    See framing options HERE.
     
    Materials: 
    • premium 100% cotton watercolor paper
    • professional lightfast watercolor paints

    • Select 'Artwork only' if you would like to receive just the artwork itself and take care of matting / framing yourself. 
      Please note, I usually leave a trim of white paper of up to 0.5 in around the painting to make it easier to mount it to the mat. But if you'd like me to cut it off before sending, please request it before the order is shipped. Alternatively, you can cut it off to the desired size with regular scissors. 

       

      Ordering Matted Artwork

      Select 'Single / Double mat - no frame' option, and I will include:

      • a Crescent Select 4-Ply Mat. This mat board is crafted from superior 4-ply alpha-cellulose, ensuring robust protection and lasting beauty for your art. Completely acid-free and lignin-free, it guards against yellowing and deterioration, preserving your work for years to come. Mat sizes:
        • 2’’ for portraits up to 11 X 14 in
        • 3’’ for portraits up to 16 x 20 in
        • 4’’ for 18 x 24 portraits
      • an acid-free archival backing board (protects the art and makes it easier to mount)

      This way it will be fully ready for you to put it in your own frame.

      Artwork sizes inluding the mat (this is the frame size you will need to fit your artwork):
      - 8x10 in artwork with a mat: 12x14 in
      - 9x12 in artwork with a mat: 13x16 in
      - 11x14 in artwork with a mat: 15x18 in
      - 12x16 in artwork with a mat: 18x22 in
      - 16x20 in artwork with a mat: 22x26 in
      - 18x24 in artwork with a mat: 26x32 in

       

      Ordering Framed Artwork

      Framing options I offer are shown HERE.

      Order one of the framed options, if you would like to receive your portrait both with a mat & fully framed. You'll be prompted to select a frame after placing an order during the reference photo upload.

       

      Glass options:

      Choose if you’d like regular 2.5mm clear glass or Anti-Reflective Glass. Believe me, Anti-Reflective glass makes a huge difference! Check out the listing photos for a side by side of the two options.
