What the painter is doing here

The Tambourine Player. Our painter follows the same logic rather than copying a photograph of it: the far distances go down cool and weak, the near ground stays loaded, and nothing is blended flat.

Why hand-painting matters here

What you lose in a print is the air. The original puts hazier, cooler paint between you and the horizon; a press prints the haze as a flat wash. Handled by hand the far ground goes back where it belongs.

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. There is no agency in between; the studio that paints your canvas is the one answering your messages.

Hanging it

We have painted it most often for clients hanging it above a console in an entry. Proportions follow the original, not the nearest standard frame size. Anything panoramic or vertical is handled as a matter of course.

Questions worth asking

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.

Can I get this in a size that is not listed?

Yes — the listed sizes are the common requests, not a limit. Very wide or unusually tall proportions are routine for us.

What happens after I message you?

You tell us the painting, size and whether you want a frame. We quote, a painter starts on your canvas, and you get photographs before it ships.
