Portraits the perfect gift.
Before photography, portrait artists were the only means of recording the appearance of people. But even with photography, portrait painters have not dwindled. The art of portraiture is more popular than ever. I’ve proven this fact to myself many times over. I’ve been doing portraits for many years, and have found that portraiture has a different emotional connection than a landscape has to my clients. One of the parts I love most about the portraiture work I’ve done for my clients is that these art pieces are commissioned to be given as gifts. Gifts that help loved ones remember special moments in their lives.
Portraits are the perfect gift. - All of my clients have loved their unique gifts and usually show their new painting to everyone that visits their home. We have had clients email us that their loved one’s shed a few tears when they opened up their personalized gifts. By giving your loved one a custom portrait, you will create both a memory and a gift, which makes it one of the best gifts you can give!
It's a Unique Gift - This sort of gift opinion is personal and unique. It is truly thinking out of the box. This saying applies to the art of gifting too. Why give someone you love a common item that you can buy at any store? When you can get a really cool and unique present that also creates a lasting memory?
It Last Forever - Both the portrait and the memories will last forever. The portrait will probably hang on a prominent wall in their home or a place they can show when guests stop by to visit. Most importantly, art is given to generations to come. It isn’t something that store away or can sell as time passes by. These portraits represent a family member or a family outing that will live on through the painting.
It's an Unexpected Gift - Most family members are very surprised when they receive their custom portraits. They usually expect a common gift. I have had clients stop by at my booth and tell me, “you should have seen his face when I give him the portrait. He was so happy.”
Art Express and Awaken Emotions - Do gifts make you feel happy, motivated, or curious? Of course, they do, but most gifts only last for a couple of days or weeks before the interest is lost. Whenever a recipient sees their custom-made portrait, however, they will feel the same emotion that they felt after seeing their portrait the first time. This feeling will make them remember that you provided them with such a wonderful and lasting gift.
Not Limited to a Specific Age or Gender Group - We have had custom order requests from friends, husbands/wives grandparents, and even companies thanking their clients for a big purchase. Custom paintings are a personal way of saying I care about you, and this is a way of expressing my devotion. I’ve even had the pleasure of painting a few dogs here and there.
