What people paint from their photos

A pet portrait, a wedding anniversary, a first home and a summer trip. Drag each one to compare, then use the same style on your own photo.

Oil painting

Pet portrait from a photo, painted in oil

The white blaze, the soft ears and that open-mouthed grin all come through in thick, confident strokes, with the meadow softened behind. A custom pet portrait for the wall, or a way to remember a dog who is gone.

Impressionist

Wedding photo to painting for an anniversary

Both smiles and their joined hands stay where they were, while the garden lights dissolve into dappled color, like a Monet afternoon. A first-anniversary gift that feels more personal than another framed print.

Watercolor

House watercolor painting from a photo

The porch, the red door, every shutter and the hydrangeas stay in place, washed in soft, translucent color with white paper at the edges. A housewarming gift, a thank-you from a realtor, or the cover of an invitation.

Van Gogh style

Travel photo to Van Gogh-style wall art

The café, the lantern, the cobblestones and the bell tower keep their places, but the sky swirls and the street glows in thick blue and gold, like Café Terrace at Night. A trip you will see on your wall every day.

Hang it, give it, send it

A download is only the start. Print the painting on canvas for the wall, wrap it as an anniversary gift, or put a new home on a housewarming card.

Upload, pick a style, download. Three taps, with no painting skills and no prompt to write.
