Where to start looking

An Arab Interior Arab Interior "label QS:Len,"An Arab Interior ". Our painter follows the same logic rather than copying a photograph of it: the light is graded across the room from a single source, so the space never flattens into a backdrop.

Why paint it by hand

Interiors are built on how quickly the light drops off. Printing flattens that into a bright patch and a dark one; painted, the grade holds and the room has air.

PriceOn request

Every canvas is painted to order, so the quote follows your size, frame and destination rather than a fixed list. Tell us what you need on WhatsApp and we reply with an exact figure, usually within the hour. You deal directly with the studio that paints it — no reseller layer.

Choosing a size

Every canvas is painted to order, so the size is yours to choose. These are the ones people ask for most:

Size (inches)Size (cm)Best for
32 × 24 in81 × 61 cmLiving room, above a sideboard
30 × 24 in76 × 61 cmDining room, bedroom feature wall
24 × 20 in60 × 50 cmStudy, home office, above a desk
20 × 16 in50 × 40 cmBedroom, hallway, above a console
16 × 12 in40 × 30 cmA shelf, a small wall, a gallery group

These are the usual requests, not a limit. Anything in between, or bigger, is just a matter of asking. We quote the canvas first; framing and shipping come after. Import duties and taxes fall to the buyer (DAP).

Send the wall, the size and whether you want a frame, and we will quote.

Where this one sits best

In practice it works best in a bedroom, opposite the foot of the bed. Because each canvas is built from scratch, we follow the original's proportions instead of trimming the image to a standard shape. Panoramic and vertical formats are both fine.

The practical questions

How long does a hand-painted version take?

Roughly two to four weeks of studio time, depending mostly on size and how much impasto the surface carries, then several more days for the oil to set before we photograph, pack and send.

What about duties and import taxes?

Those are the buyer's responsibility (DAP). The amounts are set by your customs authority, not by us.

What if my wall is an unusual shape?

That is normal for us. Send the measurements and we will work out a canvas proportion that suits the space.
