Portraits That Feel Like Heirlooms the Moment They’re Hung

Custom Brushed Oil Portraits in Dallas–Fort Worth

A Portrait That Lives Between Art and Legacy

Created from photography, finished by hand.  Designed to feel timeless, not trendy.  Made to become part of your family’s story

Brushed oil portraits combine the accuracy of photography with the warmth and depth of fine art. Each piece is carefully refined to feel painterly and enduring, something that belongs on the wall not just now, but for generations.

 

Why Families Choose Brushed Oil Portraits

They want something more elevated than a photograph.  They value craftsmanship and permanence.  They want art that carries meaning, not just likeness.

These portraits are often chosen when families want to mark a season of life with intention. The finished artwork feels substantial and refined, like it has always belonged in the home.

Commissioned Paintings for Your Home or Office

These Custom Portraits are created from the detailed session we've created with you. Images are printed on Giclee Canvas.  "Brush stroking" is applied to the entire portrait to produce a look that rivals hand-painted portraits. Each portrait is done entirely by individual brush strokes; no "filters" are applied and thus, it is very time-consuming and tedious.

Are these hand painted portraits?

Yes.  Our team hand paints each brush stroke taking meticulous care to ensure your image will be cherished for years to come.

Do you only paint portraits you've taken?

No.  If you have a previously taken portrait that you would like us to hand paint for you, we need permission from the photographer and a high resolution image file.

Do you offer gift certificates for these experiences?

Yes.  You may purchase a gift certificate for this and any other experience we offer here.  

Do you photograph oudoors?

Weather permitting, we also photograph outdoors, however, we have found that most families prefer to be photographed inside where the temperature is controlled.  We can discuss outdoor options with you during your consultation.

What should I wear?

During your consultation, you will be offered the opportunity to have me come to your home and help you choose what to wear.  For those coming from different locations out of the Dallas Fort Worth area, we can discuss what options are available to them regarding what to wear.

Why an in-home wardrobe consultation?

In order for us to design your wall art, seeing where it will be displayed is an important deciding factor in what you wear. When designing your portrait, we want to ensure that the size, mat, and frame we choose fits the space it will be displayed in.

How do we install these paintings?

All of our wall art is installed by our team.  When you've chosen the location during the in-home consultation, we plan every detail to fit that space.

When will I receive my wall art?

Editing takes time to ensure the best quality. Your portrais will be delivered within 4-6 weeks, while larger familiy sessions could take up to 8 weeks. Rush processing may be available upon request.

How long does a portrait session take?

Session lengths vary depending on how many people are in the portrait. Portrait sessions typically last 45 minutes to two hours.  You'll also want to factor in how many people are having hair and makeup done.  We will go over these details during your consultation.

Do you offer prints or just digital images?

We offer both. Your options include digital files, professional prints, albums, and wall art to showcase your memories beautifully.

Are these AI generated paintings?

No.  Our team hand paints each brush stroke taking meticulous care to ensure your image will be cherished for years to come.
