Reading the canvas
This is a painting about a surface. Study of Trees by a Mountain Stream gives you the place without putting anyone in it, and the reflection is not a mirror but a slower, warmer version of the same world.
Study of Trees by a Mountain Stream. Our painter follows the same logic rather than copying a photograph of it: the reflection is built separately from the object reflecting, so the two stay slightly apart the way they do in life.

What makes it hard to copy
Reflections only work if the paint stays separate — a press fuses everything into one muddy tone. Laid in stroke by stroke, the surface holds both readings at once: water from across the room, paint up close.

Choosing a size
You are choosing the canvas, not picking from stock. These are the sizes that come up most often:

|---|---|---|
| 32 × 24 in | 81 × 61 cm | Living room, above a sideboard |
| 30 × 24 in | 76 × 61 cm | Dining room, bedroom feature wall |
| 24 × 20 in | 60 × 50 cm | Study, home office, above a desk |
| 20 × 16 in | 50 × 40 cm | Bedroom, hallway, above a console |
Every size here is a guide. Tell us what you need and we will build the canvas to suit. Framing and shipping are quoted separately. Duties and import taxes are the buyer's responsibility (DAP).

This one reads well in a bedroom, opposite the foot of the bed. Nothing gets cropped to suit a standard canvas. We build to the original's dimensions and scale from there.
The practical questions
How do I know what size will look right?
Measure the wall and send a photograph. We will say honestly if the canvas you have in mind is too small for the space, which is the most common mistake.
Do you work from my own photograph?
Yes, though that is a separate service. This page is for a hand-painted version of {title}; for a photo-to-painting commission, send the image on WhatsApp.
What about duties and import taxes?
Those are the buyer's responsibility (DAP). The amounts are set by your customs authority, not by us.
