I digitally remaster your photograph into a stunning one-of-a-kind art print; I meticulously hand create each print using a combination of techniques to keep you in focus and to blend the background so you get a beautiful oil painting quality focal point with watercolor-like accents. These are the same methods I would use to create an actual portrait. Let me turn a photograph of your beautiful moment into an heirloom quality print.

Once complete, I'll print your artwork at high-resolution onto either textured watercolor paper or glossy photo paper (prints over 13x19) or I can print on canvas, wood, or metal. I use archival inks that are the absolute highest quality and when paired with our custom paper you have a piece of art that will last for a lifetime.

This is a wonderful gift for a new dad, a grandfather, an uncle, or anyone you love who has a special moment with a child and would like to commemorate that moment in time.

Each art print is made on-demand just for you.

★★★ DIGITAL COPY INCLUDED ★★★

Each print comes with a complimentary digital print version (.png) and email size image (.jpg) should anything happen to the original, you'll always have a backup. We also keep files indefinitely so if you ever need a copy of your order just let us know.

If your file is low resolution it is not recommended to go larger than 11x14.

Digital will be sent as a Google Drive link with three PDFs (11x14, 8x10, and 5x7), 3 PNGs, and 3 JPGs. The PNG is what you’ll want to upload to most photo printing sites. The PDF is what you’ll want to use to print at home. If you want to print a canvas choose the digital option and include a note in your personalization box that says CANVAS and I'll format it correctly for that.

Metal Panel - we print directly onto a metal panel that's been prepared with a glossy white surface.

★★★ PHOTO QUALITY AND HOW TO SEND ★★★

The best outcome comes from high resolution photos. Screenshots are NOT recommended. To see if a photo will work well, zoom in on it, if it looks clear then it's a good photo, if it looks blocky or blurry then I may be able to work with it but I am not able to add detail that isn't there so it won't be as good as a clear photo would be.

Upload your photo via Etsy Conversation or email to info [!at] favreaus.com or text to 314-225-5881 - you must include your name and order number when texting or emailing so I can match you to your order.

★★★ PHOTO TIPS ★★★

- Send the highest resolution photos you can. I can work with very low-resolution photos but do prefer larger when possible. Zoom in on your photo and if you see squares, that is low resolution. If the photo exists on Facebook, Instagram, or another online site, go to it on a computer and click on it, then right-click on the image and save it down, and send that to me.
- While I will try to work with whatever photo(s) you send, sometimes a photo simply won't work well and I'll let you know and we'll figure out a solution together.
- I can remove almost anything from the photo if you'd like, including people, furniture, pets, etc. There are examples of what each of these cover on the listings: Standard Photo Editing: https://etsy.me/3hF5Io9 or Extended Photo Editing: https://etsy.me/3hKs73o
- I can combine photos or switch faces, choose the appropriate number of photos from this listing AND purchase the listing you are reading right now as well: https://etsy.me/3fHYjCB

★★★ IMPORTANT ★★★

- All prints are unframed. Frames in photos are for illustrative purposes only.
- The photo you submit will determine the final quality that I am able to produce.
- Colors will vary from phone to tablet to a computer monitor to print. Keep in mind that when printing on watercolor paper the ink is less saturated, if you want a very saturated print please choose glossy paper.
- Editing takes several additional days, so if you have me combine photos or alter your original photo, that will take an extra day or two. I will bump up your ship date accordingly.

★★★ PRODUCTION TIME ★★★

Standard production time is 5-7 days. This does NOT include shipping time. If you need yours done faster, please purchase the RUSH listing and also text me at 314-225-5881 with your name, order number, and tell me that you placed a rush order. During rush season I get dozens of orders each day and that means dozens of texts.

Note that during rushes (Christmas, Father's day, Valentine's day) production times are the amount of time it takes me to create your painting once I start - they are NOT the amount of time it will take you to receive it.

Please check the shipping estimation for the production timeline, which is generally 1-2 weeks.

Note that Canvases, Wood Prints, and Metal Prints take an additional day for printing and mounting. This does not include the initial waiting time.

This is digitally painted and is not hand-painted but is painted stroke by stroke as you can see by my close-ups. I created special software (I'm also a computer programmer) that meticulously paints your photo layer by layer and brushstroke by brushstroke based off of my own painting skills. Then I work with the portrait foundation and use my custom watercolor methods to blend several versions I create using those methods until I finally create your unique artwork. Each piece is a unique, one of a kind, creation.

★★★ PROOFS ★★★

I will send a proof before printing and mailing, however it will have a time limit on it, and if I don't hear back about any modifications before that time frame is up I will mail as the proof shows. This ensures that your order is processed on time. If, for whatever reason, the comp you are sent is not to your liking and we've already shipped, just let me know and I'll see what I can do.

★★★ SHIPPING ★★★

All prints are sent priority with tracking and insurance. If your print is damaged in shipping or goes missing please contact me immediately so I can get another mailed out to you. We insure every package so you are guaranteed to receive your artwork no matter what we need to do to make that happen.

★★★ DISCOUNTS ★★★

Discounts offered on multiple print orders.
