If you have a "painterly" vision for your photo and want to mimic the look of fine art, consider adding APC's Oil Paint technique to your order. Oil Paint is a big leap forward for artistic integrity; When your canvas arrives, you'll swear you're seeing real brush strokes laid down by a gifted fine artist.

Oil Paint works beautifully with all types of photos - and virtually any subject. By carefully controlling the technique, our gifted technicians make sure that your new "painting" looks the way you'd expect. While most super-fine details will be lost in an attractive sea of "brush strokes" - just as you'd expect in a "real" painting - critical elements (like facial features on people and pets) will be largely preserved so that your subjects remain easily recognizable, even as the overall technique creates its masterful illusion.

In the dark gray bar below there are several "thumbnails" you can click to see the Oil Paint technique applied to a variety of sample photos. If you hover your pointer over the "Before" and "After" previews, larger, uncropped versions of the images will appear.
