Portraits and Custom Artwork by Theo
At FinerWorks, our staff artist and co-founder, James "theo" Theopistos
will take your existing photo and turn it into a work
of art.
The photo you provide will be used for reference and
the artwork painted painstakingly by hand, stroke by
stroke.
The
process uses a digital
stylus tablet and a painting program that will allow
him to create the painting within a matter of days (these
are not like most custom painting services you find advertised
which are assembly
line created paintings produced
in China and other Asian countries). The end
result is an actual work of art which will appear
like an original oil painting with all the vibrant colors.
Upon completion your print will be shipped to you as
a stretched and mounted canvas giclee print with a lacquer
varnish applied to it for luster and protection (optional
alternative media are fine art paper, matte canvas or
archival matte paper).

For custom prints, we offer a satisfation guaranteed
policy. If you are not satisfied with the final work
of art and print
we
produce
for you,
you
may
return
it
for
a
full refund.
