Your Photo, Your Painting
There’s something uniquely satisfying about turning a familiar face into art, and that’s exactly what our Custom People Paint by Numbers kits are made for. From treasured portraits to spontaneous snapshots, we turn your photo into a guided painting experience with a pre-numbered canvas, pre-mixed acrylic paints, and all the tools you need to bring it to life.
The Secret to a Stunning Final Result

- Clarity Counts: Choose high-resolution photos where the subject is sharp and in focus. The clearer the image, the more detail your painting will capture — from facial features to subtle expressions.
- Keep It Close: Photos taken from a short distance work best. Close-ups and mid-shots allow for better detail and stronger presence on the canvas.
- Light It Right: Natural, even lighting is your best friend. Try to avoid heavy shadows, dim images, or harsh backlighting. Also skip the filters, true-to-life colors make for the most beautiful results.
- Match the Canvas: Going for detail? Choose a canvas at least 16×20 inches. And be sure your image fits the shape, square photos for square canvases, verticals for verticals, and so on.

I’ve looked at this photo a hundred times, but painting it made me see it differently. It came out so soft, so real, like he’s sitting right in front of me.
